Advanced technologies are expensive, further
evidence of what has become the smartphone Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge, which turned out to be more expensive in the production than the iPhone 6 Plus.
According to market research firm IHS, the cost of production of the flagship Samsung smartphone with curved display and 64 GB of flash memory is $ 290. It is more expensive than the company treated last year Galaxy S5 ($ 256). But more interesting, even planshetofon iPhone 6 Plus with 128GB of flash memory costs Apple's production cheaper - $ 263.
The whole point is costly components which, by the way, Samsung and she also produces. That is, some other companies manufacture a smartphone that would be technically was close to Galaxy S6 Edge, will cost even more. The only exception is Apple due to the huge volume of purchases of components, allowing it to dictate the price suppliers.
The most expensive part of the Korean leader is curved 5.1-inch AMOLED-display with a resolution of 2560 × 1440 pixels and a density of 577 ppi. Its price is $ 85, while the iPhone's display 6 Plus costs Apple about $ 51. Next most expensive in descending order:
Exynos processor 7 ($ 30);
3 GB of RAM DDR4 ($ 27)
64 GB of high-speed flash memory ($ 25)
It is possible that the actual cost of components is somewhat lower and Samsung corny save on taxes, exposing their spending in retail cost of parts, not production. On the other hand, $ 290 does not include the cost of licensing of certain technologies, the cost of developing a gadget and a lot of other expenses necessary for the production of the device at this level. Whatever it was, but this year the Koreans managed to produce a really decent and uncompromising rival smartphones like Apple, or any other company.
