On the other hand, iPad sales were in for a slight slump as they recorded a consecutive fall in the second quarter. Figures estimate that iPad sales dropped by 9% to 13.3 million.

The chief executive of Apple, Tim Cook in a statement said that he was “incredibly excited” about the new operating systems for the iPhones and computers, and the new products and services that they cannot wait to introduce.
