Apple: iPhone sales down in the first quarter of 2017, but not sales!

In the first quarter of 2017, iPhone sales have fallen … But Apple’s revenue has increased. MeltyStyle explains how it is possible.
In the last quarter of 2016, Apple succeeded in defeating Samsung, and became a leader in the smartphone market . A place acquired thanks to the iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus, crowned with success since their commercialization. Since then, the craze has dropped a bit … Result Samsung is back first, and Apple has seen its iPhone sales down. A few hours ago, the Cupertino company released its figures for the first three months of 2017.
