That graph shows how much Xiaomi is cutting into Apple revenues in China. The Xiaomi Mi4 had record sales last month. You are oblivious to the erosion of Apple (reflected in eroding stock prices too) because you live in the Apple fanbot bubble.
I know because I used to be there too until I sold and gave away all Apple products I owned five years ago.
No, Dennis, it doesn't. It shows the traditionally slowest quarter of the year with the anticipated update to new Apple products coming out in the following quarter. That is all. Wake up. All quarterly sales are cyclical following an expected pattern during the year.
Xiaomi did indeed have record sales last month, for them, but for Xiaomi that is also expected as August is the month Xiaomi releases their new models. Again, following a repeating pattern seen every year because they do it deliberately, releasing models that try to mimic the upcoming Apple releases with look-alike, me-too Android phones with user interfaces skinned to look like Apple iOS.
No, DennisW, you have never been an Apple user. Five years ago you were spouting the same line you spout now. . . right here on Freerepublic. We have long memories. We are still waiting for Apple to hit the pre-split $100 per share you were predicting back then. How did your Short of non-existent Apple debt you claimed you were holding then go??? This is just one more of your series of lies on Apple threads.
