I'm with you on the sticker shock. But, playing devil's advocate here, I bet you use your phone a lot more than your laptop. So why shouldn't it be of higher quality?

Valid question, with the answer being that the higher quality does not enable me to do anything more than what I want to do.

Whereas with the laptop, spending more does. Up to a point anyway, but that cut-off sits higher than with phones.

The probability of losing or getting my phone stolen must be 20x that of my laptop. That alone justifies spending 1/4 on the phone purchase.

You would lose that bet. I use a real computer (desktop or laptop) far more than I use my phone.
