The second most expensive part is the DRAM and flash memory which are according to IHS's estimate worth $ 33. For fingerprint reader Samsung needs to allocate an amount of $ 4, while heart rate sensor costs only $ 1.45. Finally the process of putting the device together in a single functional unit costs $ 5 per unit. When these amounts are added together to obtain the final amount of $ 106.45, which would mean that all other components are worth a total of $ 149.55.

Yet this amount applies only to the hardware of the device, while it does not include costs such as research and development, software creation, marketing and distribution.
