Apple’s Estimated Annual Revenue From The iPhone Shows Why The Company Might Never Succeed With A Different ‘Home Run’ Product Launch Ever Again

The four quarters of Apple’s fiscal 2024 were largely dominated by iPhone revenue, with this category either making up half of the total figure, exceeding half, or just narrowly missing the mark.

Gurman has previously said that even with a successive lineup of headsets and smart glasses, the most Apple is estimated to bring in for this particular category is $25 billion, so for the foreseeable future, the iPhone will always be the primary
