Obekulindelwe ngabahlaziyi kwafezeka. U-Apple umemezele ukuthi ikota yokuqala yezimali ka-2017 ilethe izinombolo zamarekhodi emikhakheni eminingana. Ngakolunye uhlangothi, kunemali engenayo yerekhodi, ama-iPhones amaningi athengisiwe emlandweni, futhi nezinsizakalo ziyaqhubeka nokukhula.
I-Apple ibike imali eyizigidi eziyizinkulungwane ezingama-1 ku-Q2017 78,4, inani eliphakeme kunawo wonke. Kodwa-ke, inzuzo yonke yezigidigidi ezingama- $ 17,9 ingeyesithathu ephezulu. "Sijabule ngokuthi ikota yethu yamaholide ikhiqize ikota enkulu yemali engenayo yakwa-Apple, kanti futhi yephula amanye amarekhodi ambalwa," kusho i-CEO uTim Cook.
Ngokusho kuka-Cook, ukuthengisa bekuphula amarekhodi hhayi kuphela kuma-iPhones, kodwa futhi kusukela kumasevisi, ama-Mac kanye ne-Apple Watch. I-Apple ithengise ama-iPhones ayizigidi ezingama-78,3 ngekota yokuqala yezimali, okusho ukuthi ukwanda konyaka nonyaka ngezigidi ezi-3,5. Isilinganiso senani lapho ama-iPhone adayiswa khona futhi isezingeni eliphezulu ($695, $691 ngonyaka odlule). Lokhu kusho ukuthi amamodeli amakhulu e-Plus aya ngokuya aduma.
Ukuthengiswa konyaka nonyaka kwama-Mac kukhule kancane, cishe ngamayunithi ayi-100, kanti imali engenayo iphakeme kakhulu emlandweni ngenxa ye-MacBook Pros entsha, ebiza kakhulu. Ama-iPads, nokho, aqophe okunye ukwehla okukhulu. Kumayunithi angonyaka odlule angu-16,1 million, kuphela amaphilisi e-Apple ayizigidi ezingu-13,1 athengiswe ngekota yamaholide kulo nyaka. Futhi ngenxa yokuthi i-Apple ayizange yethule ama-iPads amasha isikhathi eside.
Isahluko esibalulekile izinkonzo. Imali engenayo kubo isiphinde yaba irekhodi ($ 7,17 billion), futhi i-Apple ithe ihlose ukuphinda kabili ingxenye yayo ekhula ngokushesha eminyakeni emine ezayo. Ngonyaka owodwa nje, izinsizakalo ze-Apple zikhule ngamaphesenti angaphezu kwe-18, zihambisana nemali engenayo yama-Macs, okungenzeka ukuthi zizoyifinyelela maduze.
Isigaba esithi "Amasevisi" sihlanganisa i-App Store, i-Apple Music, i-Apple Pay, i-iTunes ne-iCloud, futhi u-Tim Cook ulindele ukuthi isigaba sibe sikhulu njengezinkampani ze-Fortune 100 ekupheleni konyaka.
Ngokusho komqondisi omkhulu we-Apple, i-Watch iphinde yaqopha ukuthengiswa kwamarekhodi, kodwa inkampani ayizange izishicilele izinombolo ezithile futhi yafaka amawashi ayo esigabeni se-Eminye imikhiqizo, esihlanganisa ne-Apple TV, imikhiqizo ye-Beats kanye nama-headphone amasha e-AirPods. Kodwa-ke, uTim Cook uthe isidingo seWatch sinamandla kangangokuthi i-Apple ayikwazanga ukuhambisana nokukhiqizwa.
Ngenkathi i-Watch ikhula, sonke isigaba esineminye imikhiqizo yehle kancane unyaka nonyaka, okungenzeka ukuthi kungenxa ye-Apple TV, ebone ukwehla kwentshisekelo, kanye nemikhiqizo ye-Beats.
Isikhangiso isikhathi eside asikho isingeniso sethebhulethi, mayelana noMeyi 2016 i-iPad Pro entsha iyathengiswa? Lokho akubonakali njengegebe kimi...
Kodwa-ke, i-iPad Pro 9.7 ayiyona indawo ephelele ye-Air 2, esidayiswe cishe iminyaka emibili nesigamu.
Lowo ngumbuzo. Kumalaptop e-Apple, uphinde washintsha i-Air wafaka i-Proc.
Kungenzeka, kodwa i-Pro manje ibiza izinkulungwane ezinhlanu kune-Air 2, futhi azikho izizathu eziningi zokuthuthuka.
Lokho kuyiqiniso.
Futhi, yini ukubeka Emoyeni. I-3D Touch ayinangqondo. I-Truetone LCD iyinto enhle, kodwa ngaphandle kwabaculi/abathwebuli bezithombe empeleni asiyidingi, ukusekelwa kwepensela akunangqondo. I-repro engcono ingaba yinto enhle, ngaphandle kwamanani ayisibopho e-MHz ne-GB, yilokho kuphela u-Airko angakuhambisa.
Kungani inokungeziwe okwanele, kodwa asikudingi nje ukuthi isetshenziswe.
