Apple is in great form when it comes to financial stuff in recent months. The fact that in late 2014 they had their best quarter from history because they sold a lot of smartphones and other devices reflected very well in their pockets. Apple reported a shipping of one billion devices through the voice of their CEO, Tim Cook. The billion means all together iPhones, iPads and iPod touch gadgets and it seem like an enthusiastic statistic for the company.
18 billion dollars profit!
The numbers aren’t bad at all, considering that other report claimed that biggest rival, Android devices had 1.1 billion pieces delivered in 2014. But Android is the most used OS for the smartphones from all around the World, considering that around 85 percent of the total number of such devices are equipped with this operating system.
Besides this, let just say that in the last quarter of 2014, Apple reported a record net profit of 18 billion dollars. Much higher than any other company in a single quarter! And one of the reasons for reaching so high is the fact that iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, launched back in September, were very popular among iPhone fans and only these two devices brought an outstanding profit. I mean, 74.5 million devices were sold, 46 percent more than it happened in the previous quarter!
