According to iSuppli, iPhone 3G comprises materials with the incredible value of $175. But we already knew that already. What else is new? Well, iSuppli provided these days a detailed breakdown on every component included in the iPhone 3G.

Not including the costs for shipping, marketing and service, the 8GB iPhone 3G costs only $174.33. That’s almost $53 cheaper than the original model.

They reduced the costs because they’ve reused the Samsung-sourced CPU included on the original iPhone and used a single logic board.

Considering all that and inserting the AT&T in the equation, Apple will most probably register a 55% profit margin on iPhone 3G. Not bad… not bad at all!
