  • weirdly high cost

    Price is completely independent of cost. Products are almost always segmented into three tiers. The lowest tier enables breadth and is sometimes sold at a loss. Middle tier is where most money is made, by having vastly higher margins. High tier is mostly to capitalize on people with money to spare, and to provide a psychological boost to the middle tier so those people think they’re making a balanced choice.

    This is how all consumer electronics are priced.
