I work for a mobile network provider and this is exactly what we see, consumer and business.

Apple’s hardware is the best, but they, too, need to change up their design.

People are starting to understand that upgrading every year is useless.
I'm still satisfied with my 13PM, and patiently waiting for the 16PM/Ultra.

They have about 25 % of the market, which still means millions of sold phones. The ads are for all those who don't want iOS, to keep that share.

The iPad 10 needs Apple Pencil 2 support and a lower price, otherwise they‘d have to introduce like an iPad SE that is the iPad 9 with A14 or A15 to stop sales from dropping imo.

I know a sucker is born every minute, but I didn't think there would be 1 billion of them to pay for some subscriptions.

Every time someone here asks, “who buys this Apple product? It’s so overpriced” or something like that, smh.
It’s us. The Americans.
I don’t even know why Samsung does advertisements in Times Square knowing very well they’re in the minority in the US phone market by a huge margin.
OnePlus is just USA Oppo and Realme.

The iPad sales down is to be expected. The base models of the iPad sold well because they were cheap. It isn't cheap anymore.
