An iphone costs 1 month of salary in Spain and Spain has the highest youth unemployment rate of the EU (and those who are employed most likely make peanuts). How are young people going to afford it? If an iphone cost 200€, how many people would even use android to begin with?
Now extrapolate that to the rest of the world.
Of minimum salary, although there is the iPhone SE, which is ~500 euro.
Regardless, it always baffles me how people skimps on stuff that they use continuously through the day, every day.
When someone would tell me how expensive an iPhone is, which would last five, six years, just to go and purchase Chinese off brand phone from AliExpress for a couple hundred, that would last a couple years tops, I have to laugh. It's like calling someone out for buying a slightly expensive Toyota, while driving a Chevrolet.

Also, of course if the average person in Spain had even the simplest economic skills we wouldn't be one of the poorest countries in the EU.
