Apple revamped the MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro models in June, but we are still waiting on refreshes of other models like the Mac mini and the 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro.Īpple also saw supply constraints with Macs throughout the course of the year, but interest in the M1, M1 Pro, M1 Max, M1 Ultra, and M2 chips has resulted in steady sales. While iPad sales faltered in fiscal 2022, Mac sales were up even though there have been a limited number of refreshes.
The year over year comparison is difficult as Apple introduced new iPads during the fourth quarter last year. In the fourth quarter of 2022, iPads brought in $7.17 billion in revenue, down from $8.25 billion in the year-ago quarter. Apple has said multiple times this year that it has faced supply issues with the iPad, which may have impacted sales. No other iPads were refreshed during the fiscal 2022 year, and while the iPad Pro and iPad just received updates, those sales will be counted in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 due to the timing of the launch. Apple refreshed the iPad Air in March, but did not introduce a new design, focusing primarily on the addition of an M1 chip. iPads brought in $29.2 billion in 2022, down from the $31.8 billion in sales Apple saw in 2021.įor most of 2022, iPads saw little attention and supplies were notably constrained. Rumors have suggested that the iPhone 14 has not sold as well, with customers particularly uninterested in the new 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus.Īpple saw a sharp decline in iPad sales in fiscal 2022, according to earnings results for the fourth quarter that were shared today. The 14 Pro and Pro Max have been especially appealing this year as they offer a new Dynamic Island, A16 chip, and camera improvements that are not available in the standard iPhone 14 models. "We feel very good about how we performed in Q4," said Cook.Īt the current time, many iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max models are not delivering until November in the United States when ordered from Apple's online store. In fiscal 2021, iPhone revenue grew by 39 percent, which made for a "tough compare" year over year. He expects that supplies will continue to be constrained "for a little while."Īpple was happy with iPhone sales during the quarter, with revenue up by 10 percent.
2022 was a strong year for Macs with Apple earning a total of $40.1 billion from Mac sales.ĭuring today's earnings call covering the fourth fiscal quarter of 2022, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that Apple has been constrained on the iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max "from the beginning," which has had an impact on sales.Ĭook went on to say that Apple is "working very hard to fulfill demand" and that customer demand was "strong" and ultimately better than Apple anticipated. Apple said that Macs brought $11.5 billion, up $2.5 billion year over year. Thanks to the launch of the M2 MacBook Air in June, Mac sales in Q4 2022 saw significant growth. Macs released in late 2022 could also be subject to some of the same supply constraints we've seen impacting Macs throughout 2022. Rumors have suggested we could get new versions of the 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models and new Mac minis before the end of the year, but the focus will be on simple chip refreshes with no design changes. There will be no equivalent launch this year. The new MacBook Pro models included much faster chips and an overhauled design, making them appealing to consumers and spurring sales. Maestri was providing guidance on December quarter earnings, and he said that Mac sales will be down year over year next quarter because of the strong December 2021 product release timeline.Īpple in October 2021 introduced the M1 Pro and M1 Max 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models, marking a major new product debut as these were the first Apple silicon versions of the larger Mac notebooks. Mac revenue is set to take a significant hit in the first fiscal quarter of 2023, Apple CFO Luca Maestri said during today's earnings call.
