Think before you fall for the Hype

Feb 11, 2020. Samsung launched Galaxy S20 5g. Today's date is July 4, 2022. Hence, the phone was launched 2years and 5months back.  A manufacturer will never compromise on profits. FOR EXAMPLE-   To manufacture a phone the cost is - Camera - 10rs Build quality - 10rs Processor - 20rs Ram and board - 20rs Screen -10rs OS- 5rs Network - 5rs Total - 80 rs Profit - 20 rs Selling price - 100rs. Now for 5g devices, manufacturers will have to spend more money which is obvious as they will invest , install towers, etc. They will have to earn cost of the new network from the clients. Now they cannot compromise on revenue, so where will they cut the cost from? Cost-cutting must be done from somewhere or else the price of a device with 5g will go up.  Profit will remain the same as 20 rs Network cost will be more, which can be 10rs as they have invested in a new network. Now they will have to do some cost-cutting in camera or screen or processor or build quality or whatever is suita...
