If you take a look at the ios device support charts you can see that the trend is that every iphone gets 1 year more support than the device before it. My 2014 ipad is getting the upcoming update while 2 year old android devices get cut off and budget models never get updates.
I got this 2014 ipad second hand recently and it works more than well enough. I expect this is a big reason for a drop in sales.
- lmedinas 6y agoI don't think this is the only reason for that statement. I think Android phones, specially the cheaper brands, are selling way more than iPhones in new and less income markets in Asia and Africa. Apple has very few chances in thoese markets and the rich markets have already many iPhones still working. Therefore Apple strategy is to sell other hardware complementary to the iPhone and Internet services.
