There are enough people to fall foul of gullible marketing techniques to keep this company a float for quite sometime yet.

Android Hero, 12 Jan 2016"with a price tag" why would you say that? that's obviouslt... moreYawn....I don't think Apple are that worried to be honest.
Now if this trend were to continue (and the rate drastically increase) so that the shipping rates drop by a factor of around 100 or so (which would put iPhone still slightly above the current level of say the entire HTC, or Sony Smartphone product line), then they may start to sweat a bit.
Doubt that's going to happen though.
If it prompts Apple to get a bit more creative with the next iPhone iteration mind, then it's all good for consumers.

Lot of people bought iphone6 because of screen size increase. Even considerable iphone5s users would have upgraded taking the numbers higher. I would compare this sales with S upgrade cycle and will still say apple sales is good.

It's like people are getting their minds back, how can someone buy a phone at such high price with low specs and no customization, just because Beyonce and lady gaga is using it.

Even if apple will start removing some features or etc apple will increase price anyways. I will just laugh when people will be paying for iCrap 1k$ while android will be 500$ at the same speed and more features and aosp. Just lol. Buying girlish phone just because of trend doesn't make sense

I am using S6 and I have seen my colleagues using IPhone 6S plus and Note 5. All are great choices. So stop spreading hate towards companies although sometimes they act like EVIL :P

Well duh, didn't they set new records last year and 2014 with iphone6? So basically everyone jumped on that boat and a lot of users didn't feel the need to upgrade to the 6s. Now watch later this year will be record breaking again with the iphone7.

Do not worry apple fans. Iphone7 promises to bring the all revolutionary headphones lightning port.
Apple just needs to explain to you how it will be a unique sound experience that, of course, comes with a price tag...
But you are of course willing to pay for apples revolutionary uniqueness
So, it ll sell, more than iphone6 no doubt.

A substitute statement for this NEWS: Expected reduction in brainless iDiots who use to purchase anything that was thrown by Crapple.
Year 2016 (Q3 and Q4) will see further reduction in shipment (and sales as well) due to lack of 3.5mm audio jack in iShit 7.
P.S.: I hope Shamesung will see a similar decline in their premium Galaxy S(hit) and Note series.
