As you can see, the iPhone 6 ranges in price from $649 in the US, to the whopping $1110 (yes, Brazil did it again). The Galaxy S6, however, is more expensive than the iPhone 6 in most countries, or equal in price in the rest, and don't even get us started on the HTC One M9 pricing range.
All in all, American users have it good with their flagship smartphone pricing, both carrier and retail, while BRICS countries like Brazil, Russia and China, seem to have too many people with too much windfall disposable income that warrant the up to 30% markup on the most popular flagships for the season, compared to the US.
