Hard disagree. I am on Android so I'm not sure if that makes a difference.
I hope that's a joke. Airpods could be a Fortune 500 company all on their own.
No, I was serious, although after looking into it, I am surprised that hardware makes up 72% of their income. Perhaps they could make up the 28% software revenue shortfall with innovative new hardware and still maintain that 3.06T market cap, eh?
