Sure but the lower cost iterations already existed. It seems like they're experimenting in a market that's pretty well already established.

Yeah, but learning from your competitors products is never quite like learning from having your own in the wild. I say this as someone in product development.

You have a direct feedback channel from lots of customers as opposed to small users tests and focus groups of people looking at your competitors offerings. You also get feedback on your specific silicon, operating system, interaction models, industrial design, manufacturing, and any unique features that are exclusive to your product.
