8.7% annual inflation is pretty high but most luxury goods have kept up with that

Check Porsche 911 / Boxster pricing in Canada over those years or Chanel bags

Luxury inflation > normal inflation

In what world is the latest and greatest Apple product NOT a luxury good?

If we remove the last year of AI-related storage/RAM cost increases, the rate of inflation is way lower if not flat.

The iPad is not the only device that has had price increases in the last year.

"Marketing doesn't work on me" type of people calling Apple a luxury... they have above 50% market share on phones and tablets in the US

The US is one of the wealthiest countries on earth, there’s nothing surprising about 50% of the population being able to afford luxury items.
