Other I don’t think the X/8/8+ are selling spectacularly well

a lot of people thought year see huge increase in iphone sales. based on observations, lot of people on fence , delaying or postponing purchases. research analysts suggesting sales may not big expected in 2018. apple see big increase in iphone sales when can bring new full screen form factor $700-$800 price point.   i mean apple make lot of money regardless. why need care if selling or not? can see if you’re stock holder if not careless.   Forums iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch iPhone iPhone iPhone Mac OS & System Software iPad Apple Watch Notebooks iTunes Apple ID iCloud Desktop Computers Apple Music Professional Applications iPod iWork Apple TV iLife Wireless
