- dontblink 6y agoI was unaware they ever did? Source?
- noizejoy 6y agoWhere did you get the idea that Apple is selling iPhones at a loss?
- V99 6y agoApple has never sold phones at a loss.
- qeternity 6y agoNo, they never have. iPhone hardware has basically been AAPL’s biggest cash cow with margins around 50%
- skuthus 6y agoiPhone is one of the highest margin products in apples ecosystem
- blihp 6y agoYou're confusing carrier subsidies with Apple selling at a loss... Apple never sold phones at a loss, the carriers did. Apple always gets paid.
