My point is that Apple is price gouging.

Neither one counter example nor whataboutism change the fact that Apple products are overpriced in general (and always have been). Or how do you explain their unparalleled profit margins?

What a ridiculous argument. They make as much money as the market will bear. Anything else would be a disservice to their shareholders.

Consumers should buy the cheapest quality product the market will bear. Anything else would be a disservice to their peers.

Yeah. Well, the whole point since the top level comment has been that people are willing to pay too much for their hardware…

I give up. Stay happy with your overpriced devices.
