Huge profit margins expected for iPhone X

[bslow1]

It's projected that Apple's profit margin for the iPhone X will be greater than $600 per unit sold. That's hefty... At the same time, with a manufacturing cost of $220, the net profit for the iPhone 7 at its release was $430 per unit sold.

To be fair though, Samsung also has profit margins of +$500 for the S8 and Note 8.
