Why do normies buy expensive phones?

This is a serious question that I have no idea how to deal with... I am a gamer FFS, and my phone is a pocket library of a decade of gaming history. And it is a cheap ass 6000 kč phone. Yet, I saw today people, who obviously belong to the "already happy" class, unable to rise their eyes from an 23 000kč Iphone.

What are they going to do? Pocket rey-tracing? It is their entire monthly pay.

@LukeAlmighty Apple is certainly a fucking scam, people are paying way extra for the Brand alone.

The only smartphone I've ever owned is through my job, I specifically buy much more basic and cheap phones, because I only use those fuckers for calling and setting my alarm.

I love technology... LOVE...

But I also prety much live it... My phone has several GB of old games, and I already decided, that my next phone will be linux based only so I can use it with a dock and do some tech bullshit on the go.

But my phone doesn't need more power. There is no android software even made to use it.

So, I was wandering if normies would be even able to tell the difference.
