SImple answer - no.
The reason why is everything more and more expensive is inflation. In real, things aren't getting more expensive in general, but the value of money is getting lower.

No. The top-end models are expensive because the mfgrs have to pay all the costs they incurred in designing & producing the 'latest & greatest' devices. Prices eventually go down only after those front-end costs are paid for.
Except for miners that is. For a long time now miner makers strictly follow the 'what the Market will Pay' rule. The R&D costs for the current generations of miners were paid for probably in the 1st couple batches - and even then the 1st ones were cheaper than they are today. With the prices Bitmain and others are charging for new miners it's all gravy for them now...

Will the prices go down?
i see new and new phones , TV's , computers ... and more , getting more and more expensive. Will they ever stop going up on prices and maybe stay at one price.
I buy a laptop thats 2000$ and with time it just started to bug and malfunction , now if i want to spend 2000$ on a laptop i would get the same thing but in a new case. At the time of buying mine it was top end, now the top end is more than 4000$. That goes for almost everything, i know the companies spent time and money making the product better , but is it only me that thinks that ehy just make it more expensive because they want more money?
