Business news doesn’t have to be dry and dense. There’s a reason over 1 million people start their day with Morning Brew - the daily email that delivers the latest news from Wall Street to Silicon Valley. My thanks to Morning Brew for sponsoring this week at Daring Fireball. I think they have a great story to tell - if you love Google and Google services, the Pixel probably is the best phone for you. Second, Google has never really put their heart into marketing Pixels. (Not so great for video - which Pixel aficionados tend to gloss over.) But it is not on par with iPhones quality-wise. It’s my favorite Android device ever, and the camera is great for stills. They feel like $500 devices, not $800-1,000 devices. First, I just don’t think they feel like premium devices. I think Google’s problem with Pixel phone sales is two-fold. Clearly there’s a market for premium phones, just like there’s a market for premium items in all sorts of markets. That’s like saying $50,000+ cars, or $2,000+ laptops are a bad idea. So the conventional wisdom on this front is that $1,000+ phones are a bad idea.

And Wearables is now a full peer, revenue-wise, to Mac and iPad. At 20% of the company’s revenue, Services now accounts for more revenue than Mac and iPad combined. ![]() ![]() Jason Snell’s visualizations of Apple’s quarter are excellent, as usual.Įven though Apple no longer reports unit sales, they do still break down product categories by revenue.
