So with that in mind, you might be wondering, how much does Apple spend to make one of these phones.

A few weeks ago, Apple surprised tech watchers by nixing the traditional 3.5 mm headphone jack altogether, in favour of wireless headphones, or an adapter that plugs into the Lightning port.
According to a report by HIS Markit Ltd, Apple Inc is spending more to manufacture iPhone 7 than it did for the iPhone 6S. Comments show angry YouTubers drilling holes into their iPhones, rendering it useless.
If you enable Apple’s driving mode, most of the iPhone alerts are put on silence, but CarPlay supports Facebook and you won’t have any problems receiving noisy calls from your friends. Also I don’t have that clamp thingy, can I or my friend hold it while we drill.
Sean Solomon: ‘I don’t know what I was thinking. Now what to I do?’
Instead of rushing to help the clueless users, cruel commenters have instead tricked them with false advice. The guy seems to have missed the part about cleaning the phone after drilling. The blogger advises to use a 3.5mm drill to get the right audio jack. Then give the phone a shake once you’re done.
You can’t fix stupid.
Sadly, people over the Internet have taken this prank, seriously.
Michael Wilson wrote: ‘The amount of people that thought that this is real is worrying for the future of the human race’. The issue cropped up after users stopped using their Lightning-connected headphones or earbuds for a period of time. This means that if GfK’s report is accurate, the company only sold approximately 9.75 million devices last weekend.

The iPhone is already the most popular camera in the world, so with these new changes, especially the double camera in the 7 Plus, it is going to change the smartphone photography landscape dramatically.
