Apple earnings dropped from $51.33 billion to $45.96 billion. Apple’s slow adaptation to AI compared to other competitors like Google and Microsoft is likely a reason why customers decided to hold off on buying the new iPhones. This drop in iPhone sales was driven by weaker demand, particularly in China and other international markets. Overall, apple’s revenue and profits remain somewhat strong and the company saw growth in its other products like Mac, iPad, and services. Despite the iPhone sales drop, Apple remains the world’s largest smartphone vendor and continues to dominate the premium smartphone market. The company is expected to launch its next generation iPhone models later this year, which could help drive a rebound in iPhone sales and provide the economic conditions improve. In summary, the 10% year over year decline in iPhone sales is a notable slowdown, but Apple’s diversified business model has helped it maintain overall financial strength during this period.
