I'm getting the 256gb one!

No, the world has not gone mad. Lots of people can afford it.

I can afford that quite easily actually, as can most people who actually have decent careers. I can't wait to preorder mine. I purchased a Google Pixel XL 128GB for $869, the Galaxy Note 8 is close to that price point, and other major flagship devices are going to approach that price point going forward.

It must suck to be in a financial situation where one thousand dollars was some sort of life changing amount of money.

Buy it on payment over 2 years

Anyone who pays $5 for a cup of coffee can afford a $999 iPhone X
