Apple quarterly revenue by unit
Q4 period launches, including the iPhone 15 family of smartphones, the updated USB-C version of the AirPods Pro, USB-C EarPods, the Apple Watch Series 9, and Apple Watch Ultra 2 will have a small effect on the Q4 results. This is due to all of them being introduced in the last few weeks of the three-month period.
The next quarter, Q1 2024, will be the quarter that will benefit the most from Apple’s annual iPhone update.
