iPhone 12 series reached 100 million sales just seven months after launch

30 June 2021
This is as fast as the highly-successful iPhone 6 series and two months faster than the 11 series.

But just another random anon saying nothing at all is what you really are

    Android-Authority, 01 Jul 2021You'd probably accept 5w charging from Apple in year 2... moreWhat would it matter if I did, if it’s fine for me personally then great, if others don’t think so then that is their right. They and you don’t get to tell me what I should think though.

    I get along fine with the chargers I have, I haven’t felt the need for 50-100 watts getting pumped into my phone every day as evidenced by my not purchasing a device that supports such.

    You do you kid, stop trying to do for everyone else

      You don’t think they do and that’s fine, it is not however a verdict

        Highly end Android flagships are better than iPhone everywhere.
        Sales don't determine the best phones. Just like the most commercially successful movies need not be the best movies. They are usually average movies that make a lot at the box office

          Android-Authority, 01 Jul 2021"you've convinced yourself that profit and greed ... more” Other manufacturers will gain profit but atleast deliver a product worth the price. I can't say the same about Apple. ”

          But over billion of people disagree with you and more coming every day.

          By the way if others deliver product worth of price, why Android flagship and high-end Android phones are selling so badly year after year? For me it looks exactly opposite, others can’t deliver product worth of asking price that’s why almost all Android phones sold are in low-end segment where people just buy what is available.

              I think you are pretending to be naive about the worldwide practices of Apple especially how they treat their workers in China
              Where did I say other manufacturers don't look for profits? Apple is the greediest and the worst out of them. Other manufacturers will gain profit but atleast deliver a product worth the price. I can't say the same about Apple.

                      I suppose the rest are in it for purely wholesome and charitable reasons eh? and are not just looking to capitalise on, and profit from, an area of the market Apple's business model just doesn't cover?

                      Funny I seem to keep missing the stream of Android OEM reps loitering around on street corners the world over just handing out free smartphones for the good of the poor and downtrodden........

                        Your problem (though it is by no means limited to you) is that you have your own version of these things, yet have gotten yourself into the mindset that yours are more are relevant, and somehow more correct than anyone else's. Because you no longer enjoy Apple or it's products you naturally assume nobody else ever can, what sheer utter hubris!

                        What you judge to be mediocre is by no means a measurement of actual mediocracy.

If Apple launched cheaper 200$ iPhones, they'll see most of their sales going to these models. The sales of high end models would drop just like on Android. But they won't do it, since profit and greed outweighs consumers.

                                [deleted post]Very true. Yes Android phones have worse update support and worse resale value. But other than that they age well. Battery doesn't die soon. Everything works and works. You can install almost all apps even on very old phone.

                                    Why can't iPhone with flagship price have that?
                                    Isn't it supposed to be a premium phone?last time I remember, premium phones aren't stuck on ancient camera hardware, handicapped software, 20W slow charging, no dedicated thermal cooling mechanism, outdated 60hz screen

                                      Anyway, I highly doubt you'd have a problem with it were i making a point you agreed with.

                                      Well if what you say is the case i guess you Androids fans can settle down a bit eh, or maybe you want to ask why some of the commenters bashing Apple in this very comments section are so concerned with them selling 100 million iphone 12's???

                                      I somehow don't think you'll be doing that anytime though...........

                                      So stop trying to sound all high and mighty, you who've felt the need to put that your a fomer iOS user as your name tag!
