Designed in Norway, made with low margin electronics and components from Asian supply chains. Either ways, 10 times more IPhones are sold in a quarter than ReMarkable tablets have ever sold in the entire history. This is not a knock against ReMarkeable, but the aggregate value-add of Norway is abysmally small compared to America.

Are you wearing Norwegian made clothes ? Is your house filled Norwegian made appliances ?

So is iPhone.

You do have a point, though think a comparison to Sweden (only double Norway’s population, but with many worldwide household name businesses) is more fair.
