Loismustdye: This will certainly make me rethink my upgrade later in the year.
The idea of spending $1500 to get the 128gb model (or more flr the iphone 6+) is just repugnant.

Simple don't buy the 128 GB model

The margin they make on the higher end versions is insane as a non apple shareholder. 100 or 150$ or whatever it is to go from 64GB to 128. Ridiculous. But people with more money than sense will buy it because its there

khull: Not the first instance an Apple product increased in price after launch. Same can't really be said with other competing product lines

Dunnersfella: Since when did price stop people purchasing Apple products?
If it did, we'd see everyone buying Acer e-machines, telco branded handsets etc.

wellygary: Yip, as part of their apple watch launch yesterday, Apple tweaked their international pricing on a number of thier product lines,

looks like macbooks, and iphones got a price bump,

Pretty much everyone got bumped, as the US dollar has risen against most currences, It included Europe, canada, Aust+NZ + others

Dingbatt: Last report I read had Apple making $US400 profit on each iPhone sold. The retailers margins are slim, Apple's are not.
