Apple has direct competition in Android though. Lets be honest, Playstation has fuck all in direct competition anymore unless Microsoft wants to hand the XBox brand over to Nintendo, assuming Nintendo would even want it (they probably would not). Sony can charge whatever they want, as long as it's still a fair bit cheaper than an equivalent PC build they're all good and they know it, and that's not too hard either since PC GPUs are priced out the ass. You used to be able to pay a reasonable PC GPU for $200-$300, those days are over too. |
I mean not really. They've been charging monopoly prices for years because most people used to their OS/ecosystem is too committed to it to consider an alternative while PC and Android manufactorers still have each other to compete with.
As for PS there are still other gaming alternatives and I'm 99 % sure MS will go over to PC-based consoles at some point rather than dropping it entirely, but yeah they don't have much 1 to 1 competition.
