It doesn't cost anymore then flagship android phones. And plus everyone is basically getting double the storage for the same price they paid last year.
Only the resellers makes the phone seem "pricey" the base model only cost $649 if I'm correct. If you want the 128GB of course you going to spend $800+.
The iPhone 6 costs as much as the iPhone 3GS, 4, 4S, 5 and 5S did when they were released. The iPhone 6 Plus is a premium device with a $100 bump, and they sold out every where. I’m gonna take a shot and say "no".
I think the price is excellent in comparison to the competition and this year it comes off as an even better value if you've been one of those people who go for the larger storage models.
