They are made in the countries where people can't afford to buy them too.

Absolutely insane amount of profits for these things.

Probably costs like 100 dollars per phone to make. Would be interesting to know.

i remember hearing a few years ago about it costing around $200 to make the latest and greatest galaxy note 10, and it had an msrp around the thousand dollar mark. phones have MASSIVE profit margins and honestly its probably just been getting bigger and bigger since then.

I couldn't find your $200 figure, all I found was that the note 8 costed $369 against a price of $950 and that the note 20 ultra costed $549 against an initial price of $1299.
