All they care is about upsell to newer iphones otherwise revenue growth will stagnate by a lot. Just look at their mac with 8gb ram.

Mac revenue dropped by 37%, next year will be interesting, the market is saturated.

Mac revenue got crushed partially because I think M1 chips were so good that they can't expect people to upgrade yet. I mean they aren't even really trying, the M3 presentation was all about getting Intel users to upgrade. Apple has painted themselves into a corner with how good M1 was.

Yeah but this is why they are shipping with 8gb ram. They are smart. They will push everyone to upgrade in a few years when their 8gb ram m1 and m2 starts to become slower with AI features in macos.

Was it? I thought they focused on comparing it to the M1 in all of their charts from what I remember. I don't remember much about intel compared to the m1 presentation but I could be wrong.

They must be terrified seeing revenue drop that much from a quarter with new M-series machines to one at the tail end of product refresh.
