The prices start from $350 for the entry-level aluminum model and end with incredible $15.000 for the high-end gold version of the gadget.

Not surprisingly, only several people have been spotted wearing the most expensive gold model of the Apple Watch. Kanye West is one of those people.

Its closest competitors from the technology sector, Microsoft and Google, have noticeably weaker reserves of $90.2 billion and  $64.4 billion in cash respectively. Another interesting fact is that the sum of money Apple has in its reserve is greater that the sum of money most of the U.S. industries have combined. That’s what I call a successful tech company.

According to the latest report from Kantar Worldpanel ComTech, the phablet market grew 21% in the first quarter of this year.
