We wouldn’t call Apple a "greedy" company, per se, but we can certainly see why someone might think that. The company often puts the consumer first, but there are some things Apple does in the name of profit that are decidedly anti-consumer. The most obvious example is obviously the iPhone, which has sky-high margins that Apple refuses to budge on. Instead of building a microSD card slot into the iPhone, Apple charges an arm and a leg for storage upgrades. That way Apple can charge customers an extra $150 for an iPhone with more storage. Meanwhile, the larger memory chip only costs Apple an extra few bucks. If you’re tired of coughing up all that extra cash, check out the Fixget Lightning Memory Card Reader. It’s not quite like having a built-in memory card slot, but it’s just $13 on Amazon and it lets you offload your photos and videos onto a microSD card or even a full-size SD card.
