I doubt that apple makes as much on the iPhone as it did bc it is starting to get passed up, and it never was bad at least marketshare wise for them. Siss you see the thread where 3 out of 4 smartphones sold are android? Take out RIMM and windows phone from this 25% and you have apples marketshare, which has really declined lately. And they don't need as much marketshare bc the consumers of apple products have more money, but that doesn't mean that apples top revenue spot can still remain with things going downhill a bit. |
Apple continues to sell more iPhones every year and turns a higher profit on the iPhone every year. Again, marketshare is somewhat unimportant (note that I say "somewhat) when a huge segment of that growth is coming from zero profit or small profit phones.
