Apple iPhone charger teardown: quality in an tiny expensive package
The thing is, Apple get away with charging a premium on its products because they are very well made. I'm no Apple fan but I admit the stuff that Apple produces, especially in hardware, is extremely well built.<p>In my own opinion, Apple products are probably about 30% better than competitors, but probably have 20% less features, however because they're simply better, they can charge probably 70% more than competitors simply because a lot people want and are willing to pay for the quality.<p>(Please dont read into the figures i've just used, i pulled them out my arse, they're for illustration purposes only.)
