The start of sales of new Apple devices is almost always a big event. In its modern history, iPhones have mainly contributed to this development, while the announcement of the first sales figures has always been a significant part of the event. That will change this year.
So far, each subsequent generation of the iPhone has (at least at launch) sold faster than the previous one. This can be influenced by several factors:
- there is indeed more and more immediate interest in iPhones,
- Apple expands the number of markets where the iPhone is available at launch,
- Apple is able to produce more iPhones faster year after year.
Despite the last point, iPhones have long been sold out shortly after going on sale. Apple expects the same scenario this year, which is why it has decided not to release initial sales figures, saying that the supply will not be able to meet the demand and the ideas about the demand will be distorted by this.
Apple says sales numbers are "no longer a representative unit" of success. The most important part of this quote is probably the word "already", because the initial supply of iPhones has not been able to satisfy demand for a long time.
The second interpretation is that Apple is preparing for the possibility that the sales numbers of the new iPhones would no longer break records. Even if it doesn't happen this year, it could be a preparation for the more distant future. From a rational point of view, it can be expected that the speed of sales simply cannot increase indefinitely, but in short reports and newspaper headlines, rational considerations often do not have much room.
I think they somehow sense that the new iPhone 6ss, sorry iPhone 7, will not be such a blockbuster in sales.
There are so many changes that it can easily be ;)
Exactly…changes..changes, always shine them!! And then, from the back of the changes?
Rarely does the nickname fully match the comment. However, it turned out great here :D
A sense of humor or irony is in a certain way a gift from God, but those who are not gifted with hurrah or apathy will not buy Mr. Jiří
Are you talking about yourself unregistered user? And you should have something for iPhone :)
But it is written in small letters that this glossy design will not be durable, so I recommend buying a cover
Škoda ip 7 seems to me to be a very good phone. Contrary to what I expected, this is a big bug for 6S owners as well
why?
Personally, I expected it to be only a slightly more powerful 6S without a jack. But things like water resistance or water resistance up to a meter for half an hour, cameras (especially for the Plus) and improved haptic response are things that can equal the difference between the 6 and 6S in terms of innovation
Aha
I have the option to exchange my iPhone for free every year for a new one, but I will stay with the 6s and the reason is the audio jack
there is beauty in simplicity, I don't want to become a slave to additional charging, and stereo speakers are complete nonsense for such a small product, so if there was an option to switch anyway, I would switch to mono Because of the greater volume, so Apple didn't manage to put any bugs in my head this year unfortunately
Try to look at the "stereo" differently. They are 2 speakers in different places. I appreciate it because I often shade my lower part so much that the sound is almost inaudible. The upper speaker will solve that for me.
Exactly, regardless of the fact that the speakers will be much louder and perhaps of better quality. What Apple has been showing lately with the speakers on its portable devices is encouraging news overall. And after the experience with stereo speakers in competing phones, I'm really curious about the one in iPhones.
Everyone probably knows the real reason and that this neck-breaking excuse is a lie
And in a few weeks Apple's statement: "iPhone 7 is so successful that it would be a sin not to share sales numbers with you"
And if the sales are poor, they have informed that they will not share the numbers :-) you don't prepare such an alibi if you don't care
