I know the Signature is supposed to be their 'ultra flagship', but 2 grand?

The worst thing is that I'd even be half interested it it wasn't this expensive....

I dont exactly have a problem spending $2000 on something, but $2000 for a phone is just stupid.

I guess you could say that about a lot of things; cars, etc.

But just on principle. That phone is not costing 4x more to make, and is not giving me 4x the value as a $500 phone. Or, fuck, give me 10x the value of the $200 phone I have right now that does absolutely everything I want (I guess a better camera would be nice).

I'd pay 2 grand for a car if it was running

I do not have $2000 so I would mind spending that much on anything

All this stuff about the memory crisis; I don't think phones suddenly cost 4x more to make and if they do, how about don't put fucking 16GB of RAM in phones?
