The 128GB iPhone 14 Pro Max components are priced at $464, according to Counterpoint Research analysts.
This is 3.4% more than the cost of iPhone 13 Pro Max parts. The price tag has risen because of the new 48 MP camera, as well as the display with Always-on technology.
At the same time, some parts have fallen in price in 2022. For example, the modem and other cellular components in the iPhone 14 Pro Max are 13% cheaper than in the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Analysts attribute this to the growing popularity of 5G.
In the US, the base iPhone 14 Pro Max costs $1,099. Thus, the cost of just spare parts for smartphones is almost half of its price.
Analysts did not teach other production costs: assembly, consumption and logistics. It is also impossible to calculate the costs of marketing, research and development. [9to5Mac]
