What a Microphone Does. Dynamic Microphones | Condenser Microphones | Phantom Power | Other Types of Microphones. Like phono cartridges, headphones and loudspeakers, the microphone is a transducer in other words, an energy converter. It senses acoustic energy (sound) and translates it into equivalent electrical energy.
Only these two components are exclusive to the iPhone X. So technically, it only costs $105 ($80+$25) more to build the iPhone X while compared to the other regular models, yet their prices differ by over $200. The 3GB RAM that is also present on the iPhone 8 Plus doesnât come cheap either ($24).
The big screen on the new iPhone X isn't cheap to replace. The out-of-warranty repair cost is $279, which is over $100 more than other iPhone models. The replacement costs were posted on Apple's support page as pre-orders for the iPhone X went live earlier today. All other out-of-warranty repairs for the iPhone X will cost $549, or over $149 more than other iPhone models. New iPhone purchases do come with a one-year limited warranty covering hardware repairs. However, that warranty doesn't apply to any accidental damage to the phone's display.
