That Apple domination continues. Well except for the Ipad.

I think Apple have lost the argument on tablets.

How so?

Because they have had 5 straight quarters of sharply falling iPad sales.  People have realised they are useless for proper work (windows tablets, hybrids far superior) and a cheap windows based or android is just as good (better) for casual use.

 

However, a dark spot on the company's earnings release showed a larger-than-expected slowdown in iPad shipments. Apple said it shipped 12.6 million iPads during its most recent quarter, which Bloomberg pointed out was the company's fifth-straight quarter of falling iPad sales. The company's iPad shipment figure represented a 23 percent year-over-year decline--greater than the 17 percent decline that analysts had expected.


I am curious if people hang onto iPads longer than iPhones.  iPhone owners I know upgrade ever 2-3 years so many are on 3rd iPhone, but they still have 1 iPad and never upgraded.

I do agree I prefer Microsoft's strategy for my business use as that keyboard attachment and all makes it very useful.

How many iPhones sold?

Glad to see people are switching back to iPhone... there is no better option in the market.

Wow that's amazing, its the second highest for the sales of the iPhone in a quarter behind the previous quarterly result (Oct - Dec of 2014)

Apple is going to be a $1 trillion company



Proud to be a Californian.

Crazy. I wonder if any Nintendo representative will be present in the next quarter meeting.

So, in ONE quarter, Apple sold more Iphones than Nintendo have sold of the 3DS through its ENTIRE lifespan. I don´t like Apple products one bit but that is insanely impressive!
