Why everybody think iPhones are expensive?

I mean i hate iphone yes they are expensive for the price you pay for what you get…
but they are at the same price with many android phones like xperia z, galaxy s4, note 2, htc one, htc butterfly

Because for what you pay for is not worth it, you are given a closed system that you can't do much with.
atleast the other phones are far more open as in you can code for them easier

Because they don't see as many ads for the other phones than they do for iPhones and also Apple doesn't give THAT many discounts for newer phones.

$200 = 1 iPhone
$200 = 200 McDoubles

Because it is overpriced. For example:
people expect to buy a smartphone with tons of free stuff, so cool, and all that
reality- you arent done paying for the apps and music and everything

They are expensive because people are willing to pay top dollar for them. I've had android phones, and while they have have a larger screen and do some things better, as a whole, the close architecture of the iphone creates a uniformity in the functionality of the apps, and the interface is elegant.

I just went through the same thing with my wife. She wanted an android, and had one for 2 years. Whenever something wasn't working properly, I would just tell her she should get an iphone. She recently got one and much prefers it.

Iphones are great, by the far the best security on any phone also. You can get them for a good price with a contract though, iphone 4 is free with a 2 year contract right now.

Buying them unlocked is expensive.iPhones cost $168 to make, but are sold at $649.99 (16g iphone 5). Although I personally like Android, all those new android phones are the same price as the iphone 5.

The iPhone is just as good, if not better than some of those phones you'be listed. For the record.
I don't understand the argument either for the same reason you stated. It is the same price as most of its competitors.
