Inflation. Trump tariffs. Bad.

This is a very strange way to say "collusion with the intent of price fixing." In the past "competitive pricing" often meant undercutting your competition.

Seeing as Apple is jumping on the AI bandwagon which is what is creating scarcity and increasing costs for everyone as a result, I think it’s very fair to point out how ridiculous the pricing on their products has become. Consumers? Who cares! We have investors and governments to flood their pockets

Apparently the new iPhone folds as easily as Tim Cook's spine.

Wait? Shouldn't that be LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE? 'Hey, here is the new stuff. Old stuff will cost less now'. Nope, they are going full INSANE greed.

Glad I got a new 16 last year before the prices jumped. I actually saved money by upgrading when and how I did.
