Android killer: iPhone 5C sales are good
|
Apple CEO Tim Cook said when Apple released its second quarter financial report that compared with the iPhone 4s in 2013, the iPhone 5c, as Apple's mid-range model, set a new sales record in the second quarter of this year, and became the product with the largest growth rate in the entire iPhone product line. This growth rate exceeded the sales of other models with the same positioning in the same period, such as the growth rate of the iPhone 5s in 2014 compared with the iPhone 5 in 2013, and the sales of the low-end iPhone 4s in 2014 compared with the iPhone 4 in 2013. Cook said that he was very satisfied with the performance of the iPhone 5c and the two-year contract price of US$99 (about RMB 600). Compared with the flagship iPhone 5s, the iPhone 5c not only uses a plastic shell in multiple colors, but also lacks the latest A7 processor and Touch ID fingerprint recognition system. Cook did not clearly disclose the specific sales of each iPhone model, but he said that the overall sales share of the iPhone 5c has increased significantly, and as a mid-range product, it has improved the situation of poor sales. It should be noted that earlier this year, Cook also said that the sales of iPhone 5c were "unsatisfactory" and failed to meet Apple's expectations. There is also evidence that the iPhone 5c played an important role in attracting Android users to switch to the iOS platform, and even played the role of "Android killer". Although critics have always considered the iPhone 5c a "failed" model, data shows that the sales of this device have exceeded the sales of several individual flagship Android devices, as well as the individual sales of all models of BlackBerry and Windows Phone devices. Apple just released its second quarter financial report this week. As of June, Apple has sold a total of 35.2 million iPhones, a year-on-year increase of 12.7% from 31.2 million in the same period last year, and set a new sales record, but this performance is still lower than Wall Street's expectations. The iPhone 5c has a very obvious role in driving strong sales, but Apple refuses to disclose the specific sales of the iPhone 5c. As a winner of Toutiao's Qingyun Plan and Baijiahao's Bai+ Plan, the 2019 Baidu Digital Author of the Year, the Baijiahao's Most Popular Author in the Technology Field, the 2019 Sogou Technology and Culture Author, and the 2021 Baijiahao Quarterly Influential Creator, he has won many awards, including the 2013 Sohu Best Industry Media Person, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Beijing Third Place, the 2015 Guangmang Experience Award, the 2015 China New Media Entrepreneurship Competition Finals Third Place, and the 2018 Baidu Dynamic Annual Powerful Celebrity. |
