$1,500 yikes!  Ever since Apple broke the $1000 smartphone barrier with the iPhone 10, it seems manufactures are getting bolder in the consumer market.  Samsung will really be testing the flexibility of the market with a phone at that price.  Don't get me wrong, I love the innovation since this actually looks like the first leap forward technologically since the capacitive touch screen, but dang!

I'll put it to you this way: would you walk around with $1,500 in your pocket? But instead of paper money, the $1,500 is made of aluminum and glass.  But... apparently consumers are willing to carry $1000 with the iPhone 10.  People will buy anything that gives them status or the 'cool' factor.
