Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 is one of the two new high-end smartphones launched by Samsung this month, and as you already know, both are more expensive than the terminals iPhone 6 si 6 iPhone Plus sold by the Apple company, and behind this price difference there is an explanation as logical as possible. According to an estimate on the costs of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge components, it seems that the new terminal from Samsung would have a higher production price than the iPhone 6 Plus, the screen curved towards the edges being the most expensive component, and this is how the difference is explained price between the two devices.
The production cost of Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 is 290 dollars in the version with 64 GB of storage space, almost 60 dollars more than that of an iPhone 6 Plus with the same type of storage space, the difference in the market price of the two devices being about 50 dollars or 50 euros in most countries where they are available. According to estimates, the curved screen of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge is the most expensive component, its entire assembly together with the touch components having a cost of 85 dollars, the Exynos 7 chip following it with a cost of 29.50 dollars, while the memory RAM DDR 4 being also an expensive novelty, those from Samsung paying up to 27 dollars for its purchase.
According to a report due out later today, the 64 gigabyte version of the phone built for use on Verizon Wireless' network costs about $290 to build, including parts and assembly. The second-most expensive part is the Samsung-made Exynos 7 applications chip, which costs an estimated $29.50. The new high-end chip also required expensive new high-end memory chips to accompany it. The phone has three gigabytes worth of Samsung-made DDR4 memory, which added $27 to the component cost. The combined display and touchscreen elements add $85 to Samsung's costs, Rassweiler says.
Samsung basically pays for the assembly Samsung Galaxy Edge S6 up to 34 dollars more than in the case of the Samsung Galaxy S5, but here we are talking about cost estimates based on the standard price of parts and assembly, with Samsung obtaining substantial discounts for large quantities. Even so, Samsung absorbs a good part of the price difference between the production cost of the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and the selling price compared to the iPhone 6 Plus, seriously reducing its profit compared to Apple.
