Is Moore's Law really the reason your iPhone is so thin and cheap?

According to the article Moore's Law is the reason your iPhone is so thin and cheap
by Roger Cheng, Moore's Law started out as a prediction but eventually became a technology standard that chip manufacturers strived to meet. I kind of agree with that. I would say that without that assumption of his, technology would not have become so fast. On the other hand, I don't believe iPhones are cheap though.
