Apple Makes As Much Profit On One Iphone As It Does On Two Ipads

A quick Reuters report on an unsealed document in the Apple-Samsung trial reveals that iPhones are much more of a profit driver for Apple than its iPads. To the tune of double (!) per unit.

That means Apple makes as much money on one iPhone as it does on two iPads (considering they cost roughly the same amount).

Who likes phone subsidies? Apple likes phone subsidies!

Also, when considering the 7-inch iPad costs, a lower margin in the 20 percent range means Apple can bring its prices pretty close to $200.
