Before it can find another hot selling hardware, it can only stay as “boring”. It’s unfortunate that Vision Pro didn’t splash.
 
I guess this quarter has been positively influenced by the impressive MacBook Neo sales, plus the MacBook Air and the iPhone 17e.

Also, maybe this quarter has benefited from the RAM crisis with many people getting a Mac due to the low availability of memory, and some even buying in advance before prices increase.

We’ll see how it goes next year when the RAM scarcity impacts them and have to either raise the prices or downgrade the hardware quality to shave costs…

I know it is tempting to wait for the A20 and M6 devices, but honestly, I think there’s never been a better moment to buy an Apple product. The N3P lineup of chips are quite awesome for the price.
 
Viewing this page on my Neo while on American Airlines going from Phoenix to Miami. Neo works for me. I imagine many more will find this a great travel laptop. Mine fit the storage rack in front of me in First Class for take off and Landing. It also fits into my camera bag where a 13" MBAir will not fit.
