Apple launched the iPhone X (iPhone 10) as a special edition to celebrate its 10th anniversary, and according to industry insiders in China, the costs of components used in making the newly-launched iPhone X has been leaked and is estimated at $412.75.
»️ The 5.8” OLED panel which is manufactured by Samsung, is the most expensive component. Its price is $80 per unit which is way higher than any other part.
»️ The NAND memory, acquired from Toshiba is $45 for 256 GB, and the 3GB RAM costs $24.
» The A11 Bionic chipset is built by TSMC on their 10 nm process technology, and one chipset is priced at $26. While the Qualcomm modem that is plastered on it is $18 more.
»️ The 3D sensor is also in the expensive category - it is $25 . It is packed behind the glass on the front panel which is another $18.
iPhone X, which is also called iPhone 10, will go on sale for $1000. With the above detailed components costs of $412.75, Apple will make about 60% gain on each iPhone X sold.
However, the $412.75 price does not include the actual manufacturing, logistics and most importantly R&D costs. So if those are added, the total production cost and other expenses could rise up to $590.
Still, do you think Apple is making excess gains and should bring down the price of the iPhone X?
