That phone is currently $800, not $1,600.The USA-made Librem 5 costs $1,600. If Apple wanted to, they could easily sell a Pro Max at that price or even lower, thanks to the massive scale of their production.
Yeah I read it more that BoA is saying ‘wow, we love apple’s margins’I mean, this is probably true, but it's at the heart of the misunderstanding/disagreement. If Trump read this, he would say, no, pay the Americans less and build all those components you say are impossible to build in the US in the US. I think in Trump's mind the $430 billion Tim Apple promised to invest in the US in the next 5 years solves ALL of these challenges, when in fact that is just a drop in the bucket.
At the heart of all of this is a misunderstanding of scale. Is it just a bunch of companies complaining that that their profit margins would drop if they just "built a darn factory in the US" (and the tariffs "solve" it by taking away the advantage from foreign competitors) or is like the literal rest of the world saying no, we aren't talking one factory, we are talking about thousands of factories, many of thousands of professionals that would need to spend a lifetime honing new skills, tons of raw materials simply not available in the US, etc. If Trump doesn't acknowledge the scale of foreign industry, then the answer will always be "no just build it here" and the rest will be dismissed as noise.
Nobody knows the result yet. Not even our president.
Actually the base Librem 5 costs $799.00. Check the website.The USA-made Librem 5 costs $1,600. If Apple wanted to, they could easily sell a Pro Max at that price or even lower, thanks to the massive scale of their production.
This is the issue with the left using these individual, temporary indicators, which will correct themselves over time, to ridicule Trump. It gives him an opportunity to say “see? I fixed it” once it corrects itself, while the major issues stay hidden. Who gives a f. about egg prices? What matters is average consumer costs of living.Groceries are not down, egg prices have fallen somewhat as dairy farmers get a bit of control over bird flu.
Haha. That’s not standing up to China. That’s a bunch of incoherent ramblings and actions that make the US look foolish.I don’t support Trump but it’s good to see someone finally stand up to China.
'Muricans be like.. umm new iPhone...because better selfies. Oh and I know I am supposed to buy American but for this one little product each year.. iPhone.. I must get new iPhone. LOLSo it's either a new iPhone or your kid's college education.![]()

And 10% of the purchase could be donated to efforts to eliminate clean water and clean air.They could launch a domestically-assembled iPhone Pro Maga for $2500 or so.
