How is the Neo $599 while the iPhone 17 is $799
By ChillPanda905 · DISCUSSION · About iPhone 17 Pro
The neo has a very similar chip and same ram and and same hard drive. The laptop is way bigger much larger screen much larger body. Much larger battery. If they can make a laptop for $499(student discount) why can’t they make an iPhone for $499. The laptop requires so much more materials and parts.

EpicDrift889: an iphone is much more complex than a Neo. cellular antennas, cameras, touch sensors, gyroscopes and accelerometers, satellite connectivity, GPS, and a promotion display all crammed into a much smaller package makes it more expensive.

They can. They priced the iPhone competitively with the smart phone market and they priced the Neo competitively with the budget laptop market. You can't use a Neo as an iPhone and you can't use an iPhone as a Neo.
Apple could definitely make it so
ShadowDrift987: It isn’t the number of parts but the size of them.
