Value is subjective. To those of us who never touched those items in recent years because we’ve moved on to wireless headphones or use 3rd party chargers or chargers we already owned, they mean absolutely zero. There’s a lot of us out there like that. I get the value from how my phone performs in relation to what I pay out of pocket, and thus far Apple has hit that mark for me.
For example:
I purchased a 11 pro max 256 last year for both myself and my wife.
Phone = $1250
Monthly payments = $41.64
I used the phone from Launch last year until Nov 13th 2020
I paid off each remaining balance of ~$710 before purchasing my 12 pro maxes, which means I spent approximately $540 for each phone in a year. After selling each phone for $850 (total in account after shipping and frees), I technically only spent $400 on each phone. Then, take into account my travel rewards on my CC that I get, I was able to redeem ~$175 worth of travel due to the phone purchases alone, which means I effectively spent $312 per phone for a year’s worth of use. Now, take into account that I use my phone for not only entertainment, but also for my photography gig (my screen for my drone, payment processor, social media and contact with clients), my phone also MADE me money. I won’t calculate that into the total, but even so, $312 to use a top end flagship phone for a year, and it helped make me money, that’s pretty darn good value, for me.
Value is subjective, and not everybody will find the same value for the same products.
