Because, it's the signature "how much can a banana cost?" routine, of course.

FYI for everyone, they will be releasing cheaper models as time goes on. They stated before that they will start with the most expensive (this I guess) and work their way down the product line. Pretty standard business move that every company does, we'll just need to wait a bit for the reasonably priced phones.

Which will be cancelled as they didn't get any enthusiasm for the released phones.

1600 for a mid-low range phone, no thank you. motorola are expected to be budget phones.

It is literally the first phone with the new flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6. That alone makes it a high-end phone due to the price it commands. By what arbitrary metric do you claim it is "mid"? Missing a couple of features you happen to want doesnt make it not a flagship chip.
