    Tim Cook and his apple dogs are fukin old buzzzards, they stopped production on their most sold phone Apple X.
    Nobody will buy new Iphones with that ugly specs compared to prices.

      60m shipments is less than one. I think it should be 60M shipments.

          Occam's razor. People were buying it because there is nothing better.

            Kiyasuriin, 12 Sep 2018If it didn't have that bloody notch. AND brought back headp... moreNo way. Its main selling points is the unlock method (notch) and simplicity (not many ports).

            It's the best selling iPhone in the history of iphones (revenue wise). No wonder Apple passed 1 trillion.

            Androids should take a lesson or two. People don't care about the notch if the rest of the features are also top notch. By comparison s8+s9 combined sold less despite being more models (4) spread over two generations and its average price being much lower.

            There was a time that Samsung flagships were selling better than apple flagships (S4 sold 80 million). Then Samsung decided to seal the battery , used dated looks (bezels? Oh pleeeease) and subpar hardware (A11 literally kills everything Samsung, the camera too).

            And sadly what's true for Samsung is more or less true for the rest of Androids. Thankfully the Chinese seem to learn faster. Implemented the notch, removed the legacy connector 3.5mm, but unfortunately they are sadled still by that awful SoC.

            I'm glad that the people are so very different than faboys in here. It seems they have a taste. That is why Samsung is losing flagship sales in each generation, HTC and Sony are all practically dead (fanboy favorites) and Apple thrives...

My only disappointment is Windows Mobile, Blackberry sort of competing Mobile OS ecosystem must come up quickly....Otherwise, we may get bored of Android and can't afford (cant even think) iPhones. iPhones and Apple products are completely out of my mind whenever I want to make decision of buying mobiles for me or my friends and family

                Deals, deals, deals, and even more deals... Since it's a US company, domestic carriers are having a blast of deals for their users. Not surprised at all... Oh, and china... Allmost one and a half billion people...

                    Geric.770, 12 Sep 2018I like how Apple has long time support even on older models... moreWell, not that that does any good. Updates often kinda make the phone suck after a day or two and goes back to normal only after a week

                            1. Most of the people living in US don't even know about other brands except from Apple & Samsung (people probably know about LG, Sony & HTC but these brands are dying). I'm not talking about geeks, i'm talking about normies.

                            2. China is just too obsessed with iPhones which comes with "cool" status. People there either buy an iPhone or a lookalike.

                            3. In India, anyone buying Apple product is just a showoff regardless of he likes iOS or not. That thing is too overpriced to even be considered. I mean who the heck in their right mind would throw 1500$ for a phone if it wasn't for showoff.

What are important things for you, we all have different needs.

                              Some prefer android world, some prefer iOS world. nothing wrong with each other.
