Yea, if you buy them outright, but that isn't how most people in developing countries (which make up the bulk of the planet) are doing it. They can get brand name phones (and tablets with sim cards) ridiculously cheap by signing usage contracts. So that is what they are doing, and it doesn't cost much at all. Where a laptop is unaffordable for most unless they are wealthy or have credit.
