True, but that's why Samsung is hurt more than Apple.
> Apples should adapt to the market conditions and give ppl what they want in all economic circumstances.
There's a hole in their phone line-up about the size of an iPhone SE or iPhone 6. I think the new iPhones are great and there's something to be said to have premium and super premium tiers. Their Mac line-up used to be four different products as well divided in more or less the same way (pro / prosumer and desktop / portable) where in this case it should be premium / super premium and phablet / pocketable.
The pocketable premium phone doesn't exist anymore.

It should hurt apple too right? doesn't 'poor economic performance' mean ppl are buying cheaper phones(xiaomi) vs appl's expensive phones? Chinese didn't just stop buying phones( looking at those graphs) but just stopped buying expensive apple phones. Apple blaming the economy is like farmer blaming the monsoon instead of admitting that he should've built a reservoir last year.
