These are the iPhone X shipments they are talking about, so all of them.

The good news for Apple is that the 2017 holiday shopping season was likely its best ever. Analysts predict Apple sold as many as 90 million iPhones over the past three months, which would blow away the company's previous record.
Yes, but more and more are rejecting even spending $600 on a new phone and opting to buy lower end models, which puts a significant crimp in Apple's profitability. Now that the news has broken that Apple intentionally cripples older phones...well, this wont end up benefiting Apple's shareholders. *It just works...slower.
But them I am THAT guy - I recently got a new laptop from work and I'm still putting the protective sheet in between the keyboard and display when I close it up.
I don't think that's the case. A lot of people do buy cheaper phones, but both Apple and Samsung still sell 10s of millions of their high-end units per year. It's more that smart phone adoption is hitting/has hit critical mass and the explosive growth that used to happen is slowing down.
I seem more people using their existing phones as long as possible rather than spending big $$ on a new one.
They shipped/sold 30 million phones last quarter, that's $30+ Billion in revenue, decent chunk of change I'd say.
How many were sold at the $300 discount?
Wouldn't matter, Apple gets full price, the carrier eats the subsidy.How many were sold at the $300 discount?
not sure what you are trying to say.
Apple sold 90 million phones last quarter, 30 million of them were the X model.
All carriers, Apple rapes all equally
If Apple didn't offer the deal directly then that means Apple isn't losing out on money from the phones sold under it.
