Send to KindleRecent reports have been released, showing that the iPhone 4S costs Apple $196 to make. This doesn’t include things like licensing and it can increase when going up the model range to the 32 + 64Gb models. To break the cost down, the iPhone 4S only costs $8 to manufacture, the flash storage 16Gb costs $20, the 32Gb costs $40 and the 64Gb costs $80. So now you can bare this in mind when choosing the model of your 4S, you will be able to take into account the amount your paying for double the storage! As always, Apple has blown up the prices for the iPhones to pay their bills, but that’s expected with pretty much every Apple product.
