The research firm refrains from providing shipment figures, which are reserved for clients, but it highlights the strong performance of the Pro Max model.
The iPhone 15 Pro Max significantly reduced the sales gap with the iPhone 15 as customers favored its superior camera and display, supported by attractive financing options and trade-in deals.
In general, Apple saw a slight decline due to improved sales of Samsung devices.
It’s common for last year’s models to lead Q3 sales, given that new models have been available for a relatively short time during the quarter. Furthermore, many consumers tend to find a balance between cost and features by opting for previous year’s models.
