People complain about Apple prices but the hardware is excellent. You can’t compare a Mac to a $500 PC. The same is true with the phones. Apple isn’t cheap, but you can (typically) get years of use out of it.
You can see this based on resell prices. You can sell a pretty old iMac and get really good money for it. In fact if you are enterprising you could buy a new iMac each year and easily cover most of the price by selling last years. You could never do that with a PC.
The components and construction are usually great. And they come up with things like the MagSafe connector so you don’t drag your laptop off a desk if you pull the cord.
I came to the Apple party late but regret all those years I spent in PC land.
