This is ridiculous.

Well, I don’t use them anyway, so whatever.
5 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:20:22 ID:lbVN
It’s ridiculous no matter how you look at it.

I have no plans to use anything other than an iPhone.

Sorry guys, I’m switching to a “Cheat-droid” (Android) lol
8 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:21:16 ID:lbVN
They’re starting to act like a tyrant monopolist.

It was obvious that the memory price spike at the end of last year would have a ripple effect.
The big players have long-term contracts, so they managed to avoid price hikes for a while, but they can’t hold out forever.
And now that half a year has passed, here we are.
The people making a fuss about this are just clueless. It’s embarrassing to watch.

You’re the one who’s embarrassing, you broke loser.
15 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:22:30 ID:F6He

Whoa lol

It’s the usual pattern: “Semiconductor prices are up” and “The Yen is weak.”
16 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:22:41 ID:FhQP
Painful.
17 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:22:50 ID:IUFN
Software usage fees keep going up too, right?
Not that I care about your jobs or anything.

Apple users find meaning in being able to show off, so this isn’t a problem at all; they’ll probably even be happy about it.
20 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:23:26 ID:4SSt
Guess I have no choice but to buy used.
21 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:23:38 ID:lbVN
>>20
Used ones are expensive too.
22 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:23:41 ID:eqis

Scalpers: “Good idea!”
23 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:24:04 ID:txxt
Everything is soaring in price, so other companies besides Apple will hike prices too.
24 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:24:04 ID:HGeR
The MacBook Neo used to be worth it since it was under 100k yen.
25 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:24:08 ID:j101
Standard reminder: The Japanese Yen is just pathetic, the prices in the US haven’t changed.
26 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:24:30 ID:Y0sB
Well, a few ten thousand yen increase is just a rounding error in a long life.
Buy what you want, when you want to.
29 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:25:44 ID:lbVN
I was literally looking at the site a few days ago thinking, “a MacBook is a bit pricey, huh,” and now it’s going to get even more expensive?
30 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:26:00 ID:j101
It’s “Macdo-book,” okay?
31 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:26:14 ID:OqLN
The people making a fuss about this weren’t going to buy one anyway.
32 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:26:50 ID:lbVN
>>31
People who aren’t planning to buy one wouldn’t even be interested in this topic in the first place.
35 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:28:01 ID:fGYM
This is the end result for an underdeveloped nation.
36 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:28:11 ID:lbVN
>>35
It’s over for us, isn’t it.
39 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:29:49 ID:A1PM
People who use Apple products other than iPhones and iPads don’t even look at the price anymore—they’re idiots.
40 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:29:54 ID:WNoF
If you couldn’t afford it before the price hike, aren’t you already outside the target demographic anyway?
41 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:30:05 ID:fGYM
The end result for a country that laughed at inflation in other nations and celebrated the weak yen.
42 Name: Unknown Japuzz Watcher[] Date: 26/06/25(Thu) 23:30:24 ID:lbVN
>>41
That’s exactly it.
