Apple reports Q3 results: 8.4 million iPhones sold

By on July 20, 2010 at 4:54pm in Asides, Mobile News

Apple’s been getting hit hard over the past few weeks regarding the iPhone 4, but they just reported their Q3 2010 results and it’s another one for the record books. They stated in a release that revenue hit $15.7 billion and net quarterly profit of $3.25 billion. Stellar results. On a product breakdown in this quarter they sold 3.47 million Macs, 9.41 million iPods, 3.27 million iPads and specifically when it comes to the iPhone: a massive 8.4 million were sold this quarter (up 61% compared to Q3 2009).

Steve Jobs, Apple’s CEO said “It was a phenomenal quarter that exceeded our expectations all around, including the most successful product launch in Apple’s history with iPhone 4. iPad is off to a terrific start, more people are buying Macs than ever before, and we have amazing new products still to come this year.”

What do you think about this good news for Apple… will this reduce the amount of talk about the iPhone 4 antenna issues?

  2. I love their laptops! But still an android fan!

    You think they could have dug deeper into their pockets for a better solution than the free cover for the iPhone! Not like they don’t have $15 BILLION!

  5. Sounds impressive, until you realise that this marks a loss in marketshare of the global smartphone market.

  6. Waitaminute… Q3 2010? Let’s see… Q1 = Jan-Mar, Q2 = Apr-Jun, Q3 = Jul-Sept and Q4 = Oct-Dec.

    I think Apple needs to recalibrate their calendars the same why they did their signal bars.

    Or are they trying to show us how to divide up the calendar the in the same way they had to show us how to hold a phone?

  8. Well, that’s a pretty big number (34m a year), but with Android selling 160k/day (57m a year)and increasing that number with time, Apple will soon be the clear number two. With China beginning the production of low end Android 2.2 capable processors (meaning sub-$100 un-subsidized phones), i have trouble seeing this being as lucrative a market for Apple going forward.
