Apple Gadget Life Expired

0
According to Asymco Horace Dedier business website analyst average life equipment Apple is a little over four years old. The expert came to this conclusion after making calculations with Apple's data on the number of devices sold and currently in use, as well as on total sales for the 3rd quarter of 2013.



Of the two and a few billion devices, 1,3 billion are currently used, according to Business Insider, Dedier estimates, and sales of Apple equipment in the indicated period reached 750 million. Based on this, an Asymco specialist concluded that the average life span of Apple appliances is 4 years and 3 months.

Thus, according to Business Insider, we can conclude that users update their devices less frequently than Apple launches new models on the market. It is also noted that the owners of "Apple" gadgets are more satisfied with their use, as a result of which they are less inclined to change their old smartphones and laptops. Business Insider did not get around the price issue, noting that the cost of Apple equipment exceeds the cost of products of most competitors.

The Asymco analysis involved iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple Watch and iPod touch.

Launched in 2017, the new iPhone X with a “frameless” screen was not very popular among users, and subsequent not-so-impressive sales made Apple reduce its flagship production. According to Bloomberg, in 2018 Apple intends to release an updated iPhone X, and also announced the release of a new gadget, which so far is only known that it will be the "largest" smartphone on the market.
