Google has said their next Nexus phone will be priced the same with newer hardware.

Explain why an S4 (slower than a Nexus 4) has double the price point of a Nexus 4.
Wait what? Unless you mean how the S4 is held back with Touchwiz versus clean Android, the Snapdragon 600 > Snapdragon S4 Pro by a bit.

Also, Google (and Amazon) are the only ones who can afford to break even/take a loss because of the profits they make instead from the services side. Samsung and Sony can't afford to do that because of how immature their offerings are.
