Then we can discuss.
However I would point out that this is a free blog so if you don’t like like it please feel free not to read it.

iPhone 8 demand hasn’t been soft. While they don’t break out phone models in their numbers, the 8 has been a strong seller. For years, they’ve tried to minimize the lines outside stores by making them available without issue online. That wasn’t possible for iPhone X, but it doesn’t mean the lack of lines equates to a lack of demand, which is what Richard is presupposing.

Poorly thought out assumptions and repetition of untruths is the hallmark of this blog, whether it’s the Bloomberg nonsense cited here, or the “FaceID failed on stage in demo” claim which has also been shown to be false.

What would make Richard happy more than anything is if Google were to take Android proprietary and sell a device in quantities similar to Apple’s. They haven’t done the former, and haven’t figured out how to do the latter. All of this ignores what should surprise people who think of them as a phone seller: Apple made most of their money in this report from services, a category that pundits usually think of Apple as being weak in.

Also interesting is Richard’s continued contention that there’s no value in holding Apple stock. And yet, it’s as high as it’s ever been.
