Sales were driven by strong growth in a range of markets including India, the Middle East, Africa, Japan, and several countries in the Asia- Pacific (APAC) region. Meanwhile, markets such as North America and Europe saw declines.

The Japanese market recorded a 15% year-on-year growth thanks to stable demand for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16e. Meanwhile, purchasing power in China has slowed down due to inventory liquidation.
