There are twelve countries in the European Union with an average net income of less than 1000 euro. The two poorest ones (Romania & Bulgaria) are at 515 euro and 406 euro. So it's not that of a stretch that Americans have phones worth more than a European monthly wage.

It is a stretch to say most Americans do, though.

Also, your original post needs a qualifier on the scope of "European countries".

Many Europeans in wealthier countries also have phones worth over 1000€. Buying iPhones is not exclusive to Americans.
