    It’s really your choice to buy the model you need and can afford. Apparently enough people do that they know exactly where to price their models.

    They do have marketing people employed that are far more experts than you and me how to squeeze customers for maximum profit. If people weren’t buying low storage models, they wouldn’t make them.

    Since they are, they’re obviously selling them. My parents regularly buy the lower storage models quite happily.

    So I’m not sure what point you’re making? They should cut back on their profits because “some reasons” or for the good of the world? lol no.

      128gb is average. That’s my point. iphone ads are getting shit on because they called 128gb ‘lots of storage’. It’s not ‘lots’. It’s average.

      well, that, and it’s apple, and everyone loves to hate those guys.

        I think it can be lots of storage for some.

        It’s marketing after all. Manufactured angst just doesn’t sell. Sorry.

          I can’t agree with you. If someone promises to give me ‘a lot’ of anything, and then gives me an average amount, i’m going to call them out on it.

          If someone handed you a regular glass of water and told you it was ‘a lot’ of water, you’d think they were an idiot.
