Apple has always been expensive. Where have you people been? Why aren't you yelling at Lamborghini for being more expensive than a Chevy Cruz? I mean come on. They're including not only Lightning headphones but an adapter for NORMAL headphones. You don't have to spend a single red cent on any new headphones, so I respectfully ask ya'll to shut up
The phone has amazing upgrades which puts it even further ahead of any Android phone.
