ridiculing you is the only reason i am here, great Apple watch sales LOL, clearly 71% decling in sales is a GOOD THING to spaced out Tim Cookes.

my existence due to the iPhone, erm what.



Your mere existence on this 'galaxy', thank Apple

So funny. OK, so if the Apple Watch isn't the best selling smart watch what is? We all know it's easily the best selling smart watch ever, and no doubt the best selling watch full stop apart from you who thinks it's a flop.

I love it when data is easy to find

So in reality, the entire smartwatch industry is in decline. With the exception of Garmin who target the fitness/sporting sector far more than the conventional tech industry.

He just can't get his head around how spectacular initial sales were and the fact that Apple Watches last more than a year. I'm just sat here loving using mine for more each month.

100% expected. New product, everyone rushes out to buy it, lasts over a year so you don't buy one the next year.

Samsung are doing quite well, but only 400,000 sales doesn't really compare to 3.9 million.

Who's to say they're not? But expecting the same rush as initial release is crazy.

We don't see the massive drop with Apple's other products like their iPhone for instance. Always a rush to get their latest and greatest. In comparison it's a big flop in Apple's terms, only 3.9m amd 1.1m compared to what the iPhone achieves in the same periods. Even in a declining table market the iPad does much better.

I'm not a great scholar but even to me this is all a bit obvious. Obviously a watch isn't on the essential list as a mobile seems to be. Obviously those who did want a Watch have now bought one. Obviously sales will decline then stabilise.

Here's the thing, I only wind up Apple haters on here, I don't really talk about Apple at all in person, just don't associate with Fandroids I suppose.
