Why Apple products are more expensive in Europe than US?

In Spain, the Iphone 5s cost around 700€, but in United States cost less 200$
Why is more expensive here?

Check the US price for an unlocked iPhone. The price you are looking at is the carrier price IF you sign up to a two year contract.

  • Why apple products are serviced so badly in india

    why apple products are serviced so worst in india

    because if you own an apple product in some asian country, they think you have money and it's a status symbol, and prefer you give them some cash to speed up the repair process.
    and believe me from experience, it's not just in India.

  • I was wondering if anybody can tell me why the new Apple iPhone 5 is $600 AUD/US more expensive in Australia than the US??? Please explain somebody?

    I was wondering if anybody can tell me why the Apple IPhone 5  is $600 US/AUD more expensive in Australia than in the US!
    thanks

    Thanks for the reply - I still know that this issue is also relevant for so many other apple products which don't involve cellular providers.... I think Australians are tired of paying so much more for things than in the US and other countries.  It used to be explained by the poor Australian dollar but that doesnt exactly work when we are over parity with the US dollar and have been for a while now....

  • When I want to get on my wifi I tap my wifi in settings but it just loads and says unable to connect. It wont let me sign in. All my family's apple products are working. Why is this happening?

    When I want to get on my wifi I tap my wifi in settings but it just loads and says unable to connect. It wont let me sign in. All my family's apple products are working. Why is this happening?

    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Why is outer join more expensive than inner joins.

    Why is outer join more expensive than inner joins.
    Other than it may return more rows.
    If you know of any ORA docs on this, please let me know.
    Thanks.

    Outer join is inner join with outer union applied on top of it. As you correctly observed it returns more rows and that alone makes it more expensive. Secondly, outer join is not commutative. As a result some join permutations are exclused from consideration, which results in higher cost.

  • I can't log in the App store because an from Zambia which is not listed in Apple outlets. How do i go around this as apple products are using globally and not only in the listed countries. My product is a Mac book pro.

    Unfortunately you have taken an Apple product outside of the area where Apple currently does business. There isn't legally a way around this. Apple cannot license apps to you where you currently live.

    I assume you never got a solution. My own painful story is here:

  • HT204053 My wife and I get our iPhone 4s tomorrow.  Should we put them both on the same Apple ID, or should I create one for her.  All our apple products are on mine at this time.

    My wife and I get our iPhone 4s tomorrow.  Should we put them both on the same Apple ID, or should I create one for her.  All our apple products are on mine at this time.

    The answer to this kind of depends on what you both want to do. Apple IDs can be used for multiple Apple services. For example you could both have your own iCloud Apple IDs (which I would suggest), but have only one iTunes Store Apple ID.
    So think about how you will each use the iPhones then make your decision. Keep in mind that if you both use the same iCloud Apple ID you will receive each other's texts and emails and all the email, contacts and calendars will be the same.

  • Is it true that apple products are "virus proof?"

    I was in an argument with a friend, and I wanted to know if apple products are really, "virus proof?"

    Well, obviously no-one can predict the future, but looking at history:
    - there has never been a single virus outbreak on stock iOS devices since the very first iPhone in 2007
    - there has never been a single virus outbreak on Mac OS X computers since it was released in 2001
    Malware such as Trojans are different and rely on social engineering to get installed, not on security weaknesses in operating systems, so there isn't a computer system on the planet that cannot be compromised by a Trojan horse.

  • My wireless does not work on my ipad or my iphone.  It is connected and laptop and kindle both work.  Any idea why my apple products are not picking up the wireless?  They did in the past up until 2 days ago.

    My iphone and iPad suddently stopped picking up my wireless connection.  Other products are able to connect (laptop and kindle).  Any suggestions?

    Try resetting your wireless router by unplugging the router from the power for about 30 seconds then plugging it back in.

  • Why is a monitor more expensive than a hd lcd tv

    why is a 30 inch hd lcd monitor £1900 when you can buy a 32 inch panasonic or a sony high definition lcd tv with digitl buit in, hdmi sockets and use it for every thing for £1400?
    can some 1 explain this to me, you can even get samsungs for £1050 which is less still.
    can some 1 explain this to me, and dont try to tell me that the apple display will give you a far better picture because it wont

    Its to do with resolution. The Apple monitors support a higher resolution, therefore, require individual pixels. So, on a 20" monitor, the resolution is 1680x1050, on a TV screen, this is usally 1024x768 or 1280x768 (widescreen). This is because most broadcasts are 500-lines or so for normal definition, or 720 or scalled down from 1080 for HD resolution. But computer monitors are used for multi-tasking, etc, so require a high resolution to open lots of apps and view them at the same time. Making these panels requires a more expensive manufacturing process to get the panels made with the minimal of errors and dead pixels. A 30" LCD TV for HD would have a resolution of 1376x768 or 1280x768, the Apple HD monitor has one of 2560x1900 - way better - this is why it'll be better to get a Mac monitor for an extremely sharp picture with no scalling of HD footage, you'll get the full quality.

  • Why is Creative Cloud so expensive in Europe

    I've watched the Adobe conference and as an amateur photographer I was exited by information that Creative Cloud for photographers can now offer 99.9% of people as it costs $9.99 + tax only. Adobe "forget" to say that in Europe this subscription plan still costs the same 13Euro which is about $18.

    Adobe Inc sets the price for the US, the other international offices set prices to suit their region. Many reasons for price difference have been given, few if any are plausible in the eyes of customers. The key point here is, the debate as to why one should be relatively more expensive than others has been going on for years, and will likely do so for years to come. Nothing we as customers have said in the past has made the slightest difference. So, instead of asking why so expensive in Europe ask yourself is the european Cloud deal better than the european perpetual license. Then choose the one that you feel offers better value.

  • Why fixed layout is more expensive than reflow?

    Hi
    i'm a beginner in epub and css.
    I noticed that fixed layout is more expensive than reflow and i do not understand why.
    To my mind, the work is the same : modify css and some other pages (toc etc.)
    so the price should be the same.
    sorry for this question which must be stupid, but i need to know:)
    Ced

    Fixed Layout EPUB with InDesign currently requires knowledge of custom plug-ins to precisely position objects on the page. You're not getting any help from InDesign. It can be quite time consuming.
    Reflowable EPUB with InDesign CC can be mostly done by properly formatting the document with styles, by using the Articles panel, by customizing objects with Object Export Options, by mapping styles to tags, etc. Most of the work is done in InDesign and it requires less time.
    I can say publicly that Douglas Waterfall, InDesign's software architect, has hinted that he is leading work on the Fixed Layout area and we may see big changes before long.

  • Why Microsoft products are so frustratingly complicated to install???

    Hi Microsoft Team:
    I'm just wondering why are Microsoft products are so frustratingly complicated to install???
    Recently, I tried to install Microsoft SQL Server Express 2012 but gave me plenty of headaches e.g. SP1 not installed, not found, instance not found, SQL Profiler not included, SSDT not included this component missing, that component missing, blah, blah....In
    a nutshell, the application is crippled and incomplete. 
    Only if you have the luxury to purchase the Developer version, then that’s  a different scenario altogether.  
    I know the intention of Microsoft is to make money but consider other less unfortunate people (Forget about Dreamspark!)
    In a way, this has become a hindrance to students and workers out there who wanna learn more about C#, VB, SQL, etc. 
    It wasn't the case when I installed other IDEs like Eclipse, Oracle, which were very easy to install and comprehend.
    I hope in the future, Microsoft would follow the examples set by Oracle, Ubuntu and other Open Source IDE providers who provide IDEs free of charge and most of all COMPLETE.
    Thank you,
    JC
