Thanks! I'll be buying without contract. Hope price is not outrageous like the iPhone X

eh... you convert lo. prob in the 1k to 1.1k region. Should be similar to note 8 since their rrp in USD is similar also.

It's not straightforward. Look at the iPhone X prices in the US vs SG. It's not a simple direct exchange rate conversion.

I think in Singapore should retail about SGD 1,200 to 1,300 at least. [crazy]

I'm official off the market for this. No way am I gonna pay such prices for a phone.

 

The 64gb variant is $200 less.

Yep.

Not just the batteries, but the new OLED screens as well.

Because of the limited supply from Samsung, the iPhone X has to be delayed and released in limited numbers for the first batch.

 

Rubbish info. iPhone X's production at Foxconn and Pegatron are limited by the Face ID sensors.  [rolleyes]

insane prices

 

Apple makes roughly 80% of its revenue from pure hardware... and with a damn good margin as well... overall about 38%... but the iPhone margin is closer to 60%

 

With Google, almost 90% of the profits are from ad revenue. Their hardware (whether Nexus/Pixel, Nest or Fibre/Fi) is only a small blip.

 

It used to be that you could buy the Google Nexus/Pixel phones at competitive prices (given their high spec and performance) cos the hardware was;

 

1) a way for Google to bring their pure android experience... and;

2) a funnel for their google services.

 

But now, with these high prices for the Pixel phones, their new Chromebooks starting at over US 1,000, and don't forget the $20 USB-C to 3.5mm audio dongle (which Apple only charges $9 btw... and which is included with a new phone)...

 

It looks like Google wants to have the cake and eat it too...

 

Customers now pay premium prices for the hardware and also give unfettered access for their ad machine? Now that's insane

did they bought over HTC recently?

 

They spent about a billion and half hiring 2000 employees from HTC. They haven't taken over any manufacturing facilities from HTC.
