151 Comments

Apple announced financial results for the quarter ended June 29 today, revealing it sold a record 31 million iPhones during the period, compared to 26 million this time last year.

No Caption Provided

The iPhone was the only winning product for Apple in the quarter. iPad sales hit 14.6 million for the period, down from 17 million this time last year. Meanwhile, Apple sold 3.8 million Macs during the quarter, a decrease from 4 million last year.

Overall, Apple posted quarterly revenue of $35.3 billion and a profit of $6.9 billion. These results compare to the same quarter last year when Apple revenue was $35 billion and profit hit $8.8 billion.

"We are especially proud of our record June quarter iPhone sales of over 31 million and the strong growth in revenue from iTunes, Software, and Services," Apple CEO Tim Cook said in a statement.

"We are really excited about the upcoming releases of iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks, and we are laser-focused and working hard on some amazing new products that we will introduce in the fall and across 2014."

I'm sorry but lack of expandable memory, limited Bluetooth support, less variety of apps, and still no USB or micro HDMI Port? You can call these people haters all you want, but the fact is they're money could be well spent on other devices that can do so much more. Apple products are simple to use, I'll give them that, but they overprice their stuff ridiculously without any real upgrade other than software or changing the charging port. C'mon Apple, At least give me stereo speakers...

@PosiTVEMinD355 What do you mean by "less variety of apps"? The App Store still has more apps than Google Play, and it's very rare that an app is available only for Android (the opposite is way more common). Also, while I wish that Apple had a 128GB iPhone, I hate SD cards with a passion, and I think that most people are thankful for not having to fiddle with SD cards anymore. Same thing about USB and HDMI ports. I understand that some people want these options, but most people don't. About the stereo speakers, while I agree that it would be a nice thing to have, I'd be curious whether the difference is notable or not on such a small device (the iPad has stereo speaker but it's several time bigger than an iPhone).

@a0me @PosiTVEMinD355 Dude, I Own an Ipad and if it actually had stereo, I wouldn't be complaining. My uncle has a Kindle and although it's not my tablet of choice, it's speakers are actually really nice and loud because it has actual stereo. And People are tired of SD cards? You sir are a moron. Just because I own an apple product doesn't mean im going to kiss their ass and turn a blind eye to their bullshit schemes. How in the hell is a usb or micro HDMI not convenient? And what I meant about the Google app store is that It allows anyone to put up an app wheras apple has so much restrictions. You really need to open up and try some of the other devices. Not saying Apple sucks, but they sure as hell are inferior to the unique tablets I've seen and tried. Some even have both a micro SD slot and a SDXC slot. Meaning you can buy a 64gb Micro SD, a 128gb SDXC and combine it with your 32gb or 64gb tablet. Do the math.

@a0me SD cards are far from a "relic" and you are an idiot. CD's are not quite obsolete yet as CD audio is 1,411kbps or 16 bit and iTunes AAC is only 256kbps. We should be moving past low quality audio and even be pushing past CD quality. We should do what the movie industry is doing with Ultra High Definition and move to 24 bit audio and beyond but the music industry is being held back, I believe, initially by Apple and now other digital music stores, unwillingness to embrace HD audio. Lastly, I have more rights with CD's than I do with digital purchases.

@PosiTVEMinD355 OK, it looks like the iPad mini is currently the only iOS device with stereo speakers. As for SD cards and the like, they are basically a relic from an area without ubiquitous wireless networks and high capacity storage. I understand that some people use them, just like some people prefer VHS or CDs over digital format, but I'd wager that few people really miss those. And don't get me started on why having to plug a wireless device into my HDTV isn't my idea of "convenience."

Right, because sticking an SD card in a slot or using an industry standard connector is ever so difficult and inconvenient. *facepalm*

@surrealme @a0me @PosiTVEMinD355 Not difficult (except for some people with disabilities) but yeah, having to carry (and not lose) tiny, easy to break SD cards, fiddling with caps and slots are far from convenient.

Say what you will, but Steve Jobs was a visionary. We all scoffed when he talked about Apple making an actual CELLphone.

But look at them now. Impressive. Oh, and I use a Samsung Galaxy. For the record.

That's cool. People are allowed to spend their money how they want. Personally I'd rather pay $30 a year for Magicjack than whatever people pay per month for cell phone service in the US. That means more money to spend on other things and more peace and quiet when out and about too.

I see family and friends weekly and when I have things to say to them it can wait until I see them. It's a perfectly good system of communicating. So I don't quite understand the strong need for people to always be connected (strong enough to shell out big bucks). It's a bit mind boggling.

I find it hilarious that all the ppl in the comments section are ragging on Apple fans for buying the same over priced phone over and over yet there probably the same sheep that pay $60/yr for Xboxlive when all its feature can literally be found elsewhere for NOTHING LOL! The hippocracey of the world continues.

@Marky360 No, iPhone is overpriced and far too limited to be worth any advantages it offers and paying to be permitted to play online is just as wrong.

@theend3r @Marky360 Please explain how iPhone is overpriced but Xbox LIVE is not? Let's be honest, "overpriced" only means "I wouldn't pay that for it" and is not much of an argument.

@theend3r Overpriced. So when the cheaper iPhone range comes out later this year we can expect you to just run with too limited?

@theend3r @damo320 That made zero sense. If you were talking about pollution or some important life concern yeah sure. But this is a geek pastime and you're trying to elevate its importance to justify your "need" to tell everyone Apple is overpriced and limited while tapping your "oh so clever" head. Get a life.

@theend3r Simple solution. Stop caring about crap that doesn't matter to you. How does what someone else does with their money effect you? Get a job as a cell phone salesman if you want to change the world one phone sale at a time.

Ya I bet. iOS7 just basically Android and Apple can't wait to sit back as their sheep defend how taking ideas from Android is ok, but Samsung using round edges is copyright infringement. We will probably even see isheep say Android stole its look from iOS7.

@toddx77 You did know that one of the pioneering contributors to Googles Android OS was from Apple? Does that mean you are an iSheep? No - I did't think so. Speaking of sheep - has any smart fellow noticed the overwhelming trend for posts here bagging the Apple brand? Thank God Apple haters aren't sheep following the Apple hater crowd.

@Redsyrup Sure, because XCOM: Enemy Unknown, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition, Bastion, Star Command, Final Fantasy V, Sonic CD, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Back to the Future, Walking Dead, Monkey Island Tale, and a lot of others games on iOS are basically just Angry Birds clones, right?

Can we please stop releasing these shit articles that no one cares about that aren't even related to gaming? You realize this site is called GAMEspot, right? I don't give a flying **** if the next ipod 17 breaks a sales record, I'm hear for video games and video games alone.

So has apple started paying for advertisements here or what? Why in the **** is this on gamespot, and also, why are there two articles about apple on the front page.

@nechiken The iPhone is one of the highest selling phones which can also double as a portable gaming device. Just because you don't like it doesn't mean it isn't newsworthy.

If all you care about is games just look at the articles about games. The fact you bothered to come and comment on an article you've just told everyone you're not interested in speaks volumes about your common sense.
