Oh. lol. Well, for your information the iPhone is by far the most popular smartphone almost everywhere. iPads sales are declining, sure, like every other tablet, but they are still the most popular tablets everywhere too.
Excuse me if I take your highly inaccurate observation with a grain of salt and stick to the facts and numbers.
As for "iPhones are garbage", that's your personal opinion and funny enough, it's probably the only part in your post that worth paying attention to because the rest is false

Actually the rest is true, it's just that it's anecdotal. That doesn't make it false though. And in some way he's right, Apple are losing marketshare, it's just that the smartphone market is growing enough to keepi Iphone numbers on a slight upwards trajectory.

His own words: "They are in the biggest decline I've ever seen". That's definitely not true.
Losing marketshare in an expanding market with so many players in the business, and more are coming, is expected to happen.
And to be more specific, Apple owns the premium smartphone market and 90% of the total profits of the whole market, Apple couldn't care less about the "marketshare" they are losing, because that market doesn't bring any money. And yes, In my opinion, the premium smartphone bubble will burst one day but that day hasn't come yet. No decline yet.
