Only Apple can be significantly down YoY have numbers in line with fairly low expectations yet get a bounce in share price. I guess being slightly above expectations is better than being slightly below. But did people forget that the expectations were low to start with, so beating them isn't exactly amazing.

They are still making more money and more profit than pretty much anyone else, so there is that.

Shares were already priced with the expectation of being massively down YoY and are priced according to investor expectations, they got a bounce as the results were bad but investors were expecting awful. Same thing happens to any company that exceed expectations so not really anything unusual. Still very profitable making a ton of money, they just have a very uncertain future around growth and even holding onto their market.

Hopefully that means that the next iPhone isn't AU $1,350.

Oh come on you know it will be. With the rumor of a pro version of the 7 it may even get more expensive for the best one.

6s Plus 128GB is currently $1529 at JB

To be fair it's not like the others are cheap. Samsung is always close behind and even HTC, Sony and LG launched their latest flagships above $1000. Guess the difference is they drop to like $600-700 in like 6 months.

The funny thing is, the Moto Z probably won't sell all that well, so it's mod functionality will fly under the radar. But Apple will implement it and everyone will be all "Wow! Apple so innovative. We love you Steve Jobs, even death doesn't stop him from innovating"
