    Demand is from Apple maybe – Apple is having a crisis where kids on social media claim they are blowing up. There is absolutely diminished demand and this is a lie.

    Imagine China banning iPhones for USA “spying” like they did on them ????

      the difference is Chinese will still buy iPhones somewhere else with higher demand…the harder you get iPhone the higher the demand is. In Huawei, people are just disgusted. Even Chinese disgust their Government spying on them so many Chinese flew away from China

    Has anybody noticed that iPhone 16 pro and 16 are now cheaper than flagship androids yet delivering truly meaningful improvements? I find iPhone 16 plain version extremely compelling proposition compared to Android competition.

      and Apple Intelligence is free forever vs paid subscription AI in android starting 2025. Let alone the privacy and security that a close system brings which iOS does vs the open system of android. iP13 pro max is 500-600USD 2nd hand…and other 2nd hand iPhones are much better deals that will work for 5years or more…esp for people who earned those money really hard

      Above me are two brainwashed Apple fanboys trying to justify their overpriced purchase. ????????????????

      Apple intelligence will not be free forever lol. It will be behind a paid subscription in the future but much more expensive bec apple. Get your facts straight

    After the masses realisation that the Huawei Mate XT tri-fold is not as innovative or durable as they thought. People just want a solid phone that works consistently.

    I find it amuzing that people outside the US are paying full price for a phone with limited features.

    In China, iPhone 16 price are drop in a few days after launch. I’m not surprised if it can boost their sales.

    Dan Ives is busy coming up with buzzwords rather than any analysis. He has picked the stocks which are generally expected to do well, so it makes him confident.

    Some reports saying Apple was doing poor in China. Now they are saying they are surging lol

      It’s like “I play both teams so I win all the time!”

      It’s a pr stunt by apple

    just shush it and take the L.

    at this point iPhones sales are really not determined by “features” people just upgrade their iPhones after about 4 years.
    all the “poor sales” and “supper cycle” nonsense are mostly just knuckles heads seeking attention.
