How much Bitcoin is needed to buy iPhone 15?

[JoyMarsha]

I can't even begin to imagine how many chances people who rush out to get the newest iPhone every time it comes out have lost.
How I wish iPhone users would one day understand the chances they have lost for so long. Instead of purchasing a flashy iPhone that wouldn't increase their fortune, they should have thought about investing in bitcoin.
What I've seen shows that a product can fade away or lose value over time, but an asset like bitcoin will continue to increase in value even after the expensive product has disappeared.

This is really catchy I must say, having something like 0.031btc and you say I should use it to get an iphone 15? Like why the hell am I going to use such huge amount (I know to some it ain't that huge) to get a device?
Well I think is for those who have enough to spare because I don't think someone who's struggling would think of getting an Iphone 15 for 0.031.
I can only think of that if the iphone can get my BTC wallet to at least 2BTC, that alone would but a smile on my face.
With the market not in the favor or any investors I don't think anyone would consider getting such a device with that amount.

Lol, I know exactly the feeling, I mean who wouldn't smile if they know their portfolio is showing 2BTC I mean if it's me I would definitely smile and for getting iPhone 15 people over here in my country crave for these apple products as of its some kind of supernova phone that can actually make you feel like superman. Lol

Unfortunately, i had iphone 5 but never had so much bitcoins. I was too young at that times

Which is the actual point of the topic.

 

If you bought 53 Bitcoins instead of your iPhone 5, you could buy 100 iPhones right now and you would still have more Bitcoins left to enjoy the next bull cycle.

You might be having shower-thoughts like, "Is it too late"? I believe NOT. 21,000,000 Bitcoins - Unlimited Fiat, just keep working/saving, then Buy the DIP and HODL.

This is wrong, there are almost no new features in iPhone 15 compared to iPhone 14, they just make the SoC and battery and some other hardware parts a bit better, basically what they should've done last year but they botched it for last year's launch so they had to find a way around it by overclocking parts. This year they are using the "true" upgrades that they should've been using all along.

I don't think they have botched their plan, it's just that they are finding a way to attract users' blood in a perfect way. Even if the iPhone doesn't have significant improvements, users are still willing to spend thousands of dollars to upgrade to the latest model, so they don't need to rush to cram in hundreds of new technologies like Android devices are doing. Nearly all iPhone generations do not have too many significant upgrades, instead they upgrade little by little to create differences between generations. Apple has been really successful in their business strategy, they have convinced users to upgrade even when there are no major upgrades.

Most of our technology products or consumer goods will lose value over time, not just the iPhone.  and the purpose of buying it is to serve life needs, while bitcoin is an investment.  I find it quite lame to compare these two.

If someone has a low income and a difficult life, but often buys expensive things and does not focus on improving their life, then that person is really a fool to pursue expensive products like the iPhone.  but if a person has a high income and buying a new iPhone is simple for him, why doesn't he have the right to do it?  Because we try to invest and work, isn't it to have a better life?  an iPhone or a car is just one of many other things we strive for as we improve our lives.

Nice information With the change of time, the price of Bitcoin started to increase rapidly. Bitcoin is really a potential coin. where as every country's currency has depreciated, it has become very difficult for people to buy goods. Bitcoin out there is only growing.  so holding Bitcoin now is one of the best ways to protect yourself from inflation. They have never been able to generate more profits than Bitcoin. And that's why it's possible to start a phone company with the same amount of bitcoins that it took to buy an iPhone 4s

[terrific]

I like that chart and data that shows how much BTC those iphones before. The rich folks can just buy how many they want because they can afford.
They're wise because they're already rich so technically, they probably don't need to invest and buy bitcoin anymore.
But a pleb like me, I'll need to endure all of what's happening on this world and the trend setters doing about owning this device.
I'm not buying it, I'm buying BTC!

I even doubt everyone, including me, what is the certainty that we would have bought bitcoin instead of an iPhone at that time if we did not know its value in the future? That's why many people didn't invest in bitcoin back then, at that time bitcoin was too risky to trust. We only regret when looking back at the past but never had the courage to become a pioneer and take risks. And if we talk about opportunities in life, we have even given up a lot of things, not just bitcoin.

That has nothing to do with buying the newest iPhone, it's about mentality: those people may not buy the last iPhone but probably will spend the same amount of money for a bag or sunglasses or a fancy dinner. If you are used to invest (not necessarily in bitcoin/crypto, even stock market or real estate) you won't spend that money because you know that it's way better to save it and invest it.

At the same time if you buy an iPhone (or other Apple products) from time to time, that could be seen as a great "investment" because they last for a very long time. Right now I'm writing from a 2014 MacBook Pro that I bought used back in 2016 and it still works great, before switching to Apple I was lucky if my laptop would last 3 years...

This was the news know by most of us,the bitcoin and pizza story.If any of us hold pizza worth of bitcoin,now over life will be luxurious one.No one know the potential of bitcoin at that time,So if you suggest again to buy a iPhone with the most valuable bitcoin.Then you may feel in the future for the big loss.If you had money for the investment use the bitcoin as an asset to inverse your money.Holding the bitcoin will be the better option for your future.Even you can hold your savings for your children in term of bitcoin.

If there's someone do able to know on whats Bitcoins future then to those times where Iphone 4s is the new model then i would definitely be skipping out and buying that 162 Bitcoins instead but we know that no one had anticipated on how far it did shoot up its price in the future and  this is why its normal that people would really be having impressions in regarding about accumulation of coins.Same goes with the present on which the value or numbers might be less but it would really be might be ending up on having those things that happened in the past. Its not really that bad to have the same views or perspective when it comes to this
but of course the accumulation would really be entirely be depending on how much you could really be able to invest on since not all does have the money on doing so.

Investment would really be just in second in priority into those people who doesnt have it or doesnt mind for now because they are still that relying into others but on the time that you would really be standing alone
then you would really be able to find the relevance of investment on which it is really that something that you do need to focus on. Now in the choice whether you should accumulate Bitcoin or not
then its impossible that you cant see those numbers above.

Today, we cannot buy many Bitcoins even if we know that in the future Bitcoin will rise as much as it did in the past. Those who know and invest in Bitcoin beforehand are truly lucky people. Because it is not possible to buy that number of Bitcoins today, even though we know that the price will increase. Because now the Bitcoin price has exceeded a certain level.

The price of Bitcoin at the time of the iPhone 4s is the same as the price of another coin today, but the coin at the same price is potentially not similar to Bitcoin. I mean this. Some chances come once.

[Aikidoka]

It's truly crazy to think that the iPhone 4s once cost 162 BTC during that time. If you had held onto those 162 BTC until now you would be a millionaire and living a luxurious life. Between the release of the iPhone 4s and now Bitcoin's price has experienced incredible growth reaching a peak price of 69k (ATH).

It's really insane to observe that iPhones have become comparatively more affordable in terms of Bitcoin over the years. This shows how Bitcoin's price has consistently increasing over time achieving new goals.

[The Cryptovator]

I think the price depends on your country, because for me, we won't buy based on the US price since it does require a tax in my country. However, from your chart, we can notice how the price of Bitcoin is increasing, but still, a lot of people will buy the iPhone 15. We would think instead of buying an iPhone, we may consider investing in Bitcoin to boost our portfolio. But keep in mind that only rich people would buy iPhones, and they have the availability to invest in Bitcoin at the same time. So buying iPhones is a hobby, we can say.

And many rich people wouldn't buy iPhone 15. Most people who are filthy rich don't give a damn about which model phone they're using. And with smartphone technology progress slowing down it makes even less sense. The differences between generations are getting more and more insignificant.

It's always the same old story: many rich don't care about showing their wealth, people with smaller income on the other hand spend a ridiculous amount of money to buy useless stuff to impress others. That type of mindset is difficult to change that's why many times poor will remain poor while the rich get richer and richer.

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

Yeah, I remember that when the iPhone 4s was first launched, the 64GB version of the phone was sold for $380+, and during that year and month that the phone was launched, Bitcoin price was still trading at around $3.27, and it will really require 121 Bitcoin to be able to purchase the 64GB version of the iPhone, but back then, people who bought the phone at that time did not look into the future to see what Bitcoin was to become today, and it would not have been possible to look into the future, and also, I assume that some people back then were very sceptical about Bitcoin and therefore did not invest in it, while some people too did not know about the technology back then. Fortunately today, the value of Bitcoin has greatly increased, and it would still be a waste of money to sell one's Bitcoin now or use the money you were supposed to invest in Bitcoin to buy the iPhone 15, because definitely in the next 12 years to come, there will be some of the latest iPhones of that time, and one would still use less Bitcoin to buy them by then compared to the fraction of Bitcoin that would be used now to purchase the last iPhone 15. Although you can buy the iPhone for personal reasons and self-satisfaction, personally, I don't even like iPhones; I prefer Android over it, and I can spend $1k to buy an Android phone as long as it can do things I expect it to do.

This example you set with iPhones could also be set with other phones and devices, in which the first product of those devices would have cost the buyer more Bitcoin compared to the latest versions of today and just the small fraction of Bitcoin that is needed to buy them.

People who are with good money never try to express their wealth to the outer world. Most of the time it is the middle class family that starves for a life style similar to the rich ones. This had made them go on things that are really not that needed, but to show them high to the outer world used to spend much on these devices. Everything is a marketing gimmick to keep the consumers go for new products everytime something is brought to the market. Also the middle class used to be the major population and for that reason they're the much targeted ones.
