2:08 pmNew updates of iOS are all in public beta. Expected to come out in the fall.

Is Mark Gurman on the call with this type of prediction?
 
Apple is also printing new money for the fall called the iPhone 14. Even if they are watering down some models, it’s gonna sell like hotcakes. Just like some people need their emotional animals, some people need their emotional
iPhone upgrades to help them escape the bad stuff happening in the world.
 
With Services category leading the growth, I have 2 questions, neither of which Apple would ever answer.
  1. What percentage of the services revenue and earnings is from 3rd party subscription?
  2. What is Apple's big picture on growing the 1st party services revenue? More Apple One initiatives? More enterprise/SMB?
 
Not surprising at all. But at the same time, it really highlights the greed when Apple cut corners.

As for services, it’s probably time for Apple to simply become a financial institution. Be a digital bank that operates virtually without physical locations. This new business model is growing in emerging markets.

Yet the crazy thing is after 10 minutes of using your new iPhone you realise it’s basically the same as the previous model, just a Little faster and with a few more megapixels.

They sure did get their little cut from me this year ha ha.

I'm not surprised to see Macs dropping in revenue this year. Everyone would have rushed out last year to buy an M1 after years of holding off waiting for a worthy machine to upgrade to. I know I was one of them, although, I did wait until this year for the dust to settle first, and got an M1P instead.
 
OK I'm probably just dumb but can someone explain why the iPod part of the graph is above the Mac part of the graph? Am I reading this correctly that the iPod still outsold the Mac in terms of revenue right up until 2015, at which point revenue seems to have stopped for the iPod entirely?

That seems crazy.
