Apple Hits 3 Billion iPhones Milestone

During the earnings call, CEO Tim Cook revealed a major milestone. Apple has now shipped three billion iPhones since the product first launched in 2007.

The first billion was achieved in July 2016, nine years after the original iPhone debuted. At the time, Cook called it “one of the most important, world-changing and successful products in history.” While Apple never publicly announced when it passed the two-billion mark, analysts estimate that it happened around September 2021.

Cook shared the news during his prepared remarks, stating, “We also recently marked a significant milestone. We shipped the 3 billionth iPhone since its launch in 2007.”

Apple has not reported hardware unit sales since November 2018. Then-CFO Luca Maestri explained that quarterly unit numbers “are not representative of underlying state of business.”

Tariffs Add $800M in Q3, $1.1B Expected in Q4

Cook also addressed the impact of tariffs on Apple’s operations. In Q3, the company incurred around $800 million in tariff-related expenses. Looking ahead to Q4, Apple estimates that tariffs could cost the company approximately $1.1 billion, assuming no changes in current global tariff rates and policies.

“For the June quarter, we incurred approximately $800 million of tariff-related costs. For the September quarter, assuming the current global tariff rates, policies, and applications the balance of the quarter, and no new tariffs are added, we estimate the impact to add about $1.1 billion to our costs,Cook said.

He cautioned that due to ongoing policy uncertainty, these estimates should not be treated as future projections. Apple had previously projected a $900 million impact in Q3, so the $800 million actual suggests a quicker-than-expected adjustment, partly aided by the company’s shift of U.S.-bound iPhone production from China to India.

Apple has not yet disclosed which specific products or regions were most affected, nor whether the additional $1.1 billion in costs might lead to price hikes for consumers.

Despite these cost pressures, Apple still posted solid growth across major product lines, especially iPhones, Macs, and Services.

Apple’s AI Investment Ramps Up Amid Competition

Tim Cook also emphasised Apple’s growing commitment to artificial intelligence. In a statement to CNBC, he called AI “one of the most profound technologies of our lifetime” and confirmed that Apple is “significantly growing” its AI spending.

CNBC writes, “We are significantly growing our investments,” Cook said about AI. “We’re embedding it across our devices, across our platforms and across the company.” Cook said that Apple had acquired “around” seven companies so far this year although none had been “huge in terms of dollar amount.” “We’re open to M&A that accelerates our roadmap,” Cook said.

This comes as Apple tries to regain ground in the AI space. Bloomberg recently reported the departure of another high-profile executive from Apple’s foundation models team to Meta’s superintelligence division marking the fourth such exit in a short time.

Apple Intelligence, launched last year, is expanding with more features in iOS 26, but delays particularly around Siri have contributed to skepticism about Apple’s AI leadership compared to companies like OpenAI and Google.

Cook hinted that mergers and acquisitions (M&A) could help speed up Apple’s AI roadmap, as the company seeks to close the gap and deliver a more competitive AI experience across its platforms.
