Apple has real problems. No consideration at all for others. They know some people pre-order iPhones and they buy iPads at the same time. They want more money as usual.
 
This is only a very small price increase and almost certainly due to shortages of the components driving up costs for everyone. This has been a growing problem for sometime.

Please don't accuse Apple of being greedy. That is not the case at all.

Now I have to wait for the Best Buy sale to bring it back down to the original price...
 
Isn't the a10x so last year now that the a11 was announced? Why the price increase ?
 
Apple love making good products, but occasionally they just like jacking up the price of existing ones. Who doesn't like money.
 
Being drunk probably they rarely raise prices

Apple needs to get money to cover Tim Cook's recently received $89.2 million bonus in stock for the strong performance of the company's stock. It's up to us to make sure Timmy has enough $.

The iPhone X is even more powerful than we thought, it's empowering Apple to charge more for their other products. A new era has definitely begun as Tim said.
It's the halo effect! Apple also just raised price of original iPhone by $25.
 
I hope the Bionic Man shows up and kicks TimMAY's ass!

What the hell, is this supposed to make the iPhone price increases and iPhone X price seem more reasonable?

I don’t see the point in doing this, the smaller model was already $50 more than it’s predecessor. The first half of the year would suggest that Apple is stepping up its game with pricing and value, but looks like they’ve gone backwards.

Even with increased memory cost, they should keep the prices the same, margin isn’t an issue.
Someone needs to pay for that space ship

IPADs should move away from flash and start using SSD .. much faster and cheaper .
