The iPod, the iPhone, the Mac...

All started with a high priced offering and introduced lower priced options over time, at least accounting for inflation.

Individual Apple product lines trend upwards, seemingly faster than inflation although I'm not actually sure that's the case. However they regularly introduce cheaper product lines to open up to new markets.

iPad, iPod, iPhone, etc were affordable for average joe without much hassle if they want to buy. It's not the Vision Pro case.

I think only Macintosh is the case but it's too old days. It was quite expensive but price declined. Newton is another case for expensive but it was dead end.
