Really, how much does it cost Apple to build an iPhone 7? Before reading below, let's just say that Apple CEO Tim Cook once said that these estimates are never "accurate" and that they are usually "very different from reality."
The fact is, however, that the iPhone 7 is more expensive to manufacture than the previous version of 6.
The total cost of construction, according to data from IHS Markit, amounts to $219,80. If you calculate the cost now work, which is estimated at $5 per phone, and the total capacity of 32GB for the base model iPhone 7 price rises to $224,80.
The company claims there is an increase of $36,89 per unit, compared to last year's base model iPhone 6S which cost $187,91 to build.
Now let's see its prices market:
With the basic model of the device costing 649 dollars, this gives Apple a $ 424 profit for every device sold, with a rate that reaches 189 per cent.
All the above, the gain per device is probably much lower than the estimate of 424 dollars and according to Cook, these estimates are inaccurate.
Of course, as inaccurate as they are, they always give an idea ...
