Xiaomi: The cost of Xiaomi 12S Ultra is incorrect. The camera costs a lot more
Counterpoint has calculated that the Xiaomi 12S Ultra flagship smartphone with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB of flash memory costs about $516, while the smartphone went on sale for $887.
According to Counterpoint, the camera costs about $79, the display costs $89, and the single-chip system costs $128. Xiaomi New Products Director Wang Teng Thomas has already commented on this information, saying that the cost of Xiaomi 12S Ultra was calculated incorrectly.
In particular, he noted that it was only in the cost of the camera module that Counterpoint made a huge mistake: the price of a camera with Leica lenses and the latest 1-inch image sensor is significantly higher than the price of $79. And this is even without taking into account the ultra-wide-angle and periscope module, which are used by Xiaomi 12S Ultra.
Van Ten Thomas added that there are errors in other articles, and also recalled that the cost should include the cost of research and development, operating costs, taxes and many other items.
Recall that the Xiaomi 12S Ultra is the first to use the 1-inch Sony IMX989 image sensor, which was jointly developed by Xiaomi and Sony. Lei Jun, founder of Xiaomi and Chairman and CEO of Xiaomi Group, said the development cost was $15 million.
Another source confirmed that the cost calculated by Counterpoint is very rough. Actual prices can vary greatly, and do not include internal taxation.

It will not be an iPhone 16 Pro Max, but almost a tablet. A well-known insider confirmed the increase in screen sizes in the new iPhone

Well-known Bloomberg journalist and insider Mark Gurman confirmed the recently appeared information that in the iPhone 16 line, each model will have its own screen size.
More specifically, the iPhone 16 Pro should get a 6.3-inch display instead of the usual 6.1 inches, and the iPhone 16 Pro Max display will grow from 6.7 to 6.9 inches. On the one hand, this will make the older model stand out on the market with its impressive dimensions, on the other hand, the iPhone 16 Pro will become more attractive for those for whom 6.1 inches was not enough, and 6.7 inches in Pro Max was already a lot.
Considering that the well-known insider Ming-Chi Kuo also spoke about the increase in older iPhones, there are no particular doubts about such changes in the iPhone. On the other hand, there is still more than a year before the release of this line, which cannot be discounted.
