   Because you are a dinosaur that is too stupid to use cards, let alone the   
   modern incarnation of them, Apple Pay, Android Pay and Samsung Pay.

   Yes, apps on iOS devices can't use NFC, only iOS can do that.

   Yes, no malicious app can use the NFC on an iOS device.

   That is just plain wrong if you care about security.

   Even sillier and an even more pathetic excuse for a troll than you usually   
   manage.

   I meant that 32GB versions of phones is very low end now.   
      
   > Did I get the prices wrong?   
      
   Nope.   
      
   > What are the correct prices for a 32GB version of each phone?   
      
   The problem wasnt with the price, its which model you   
   priced, the lowest GB version.
