What is going on with smartphone pricing?

Below is a screenshot detailing the pricing for buying a Samsung Note 3 from Amazon (not via a marketplace seller). Look at the price variations. And why the sudden hike now? This hike also applies for accessories too.

Just one more. The Nokia Lumia 925. This has seem some huge drops.

The fluctuation in pricing is crazy. If you buy an iPhone from Apple it is the same price pretty much for the whole 12 months.

What’s your views on this?

  1. Put the prices up just before the next model comes out….. That way there’s not so much a difference between the older and new models. Makes it then easier to justify the high price on release of the new model.
