Also need to take into account. ….a One Year Old Battery, vs a Brand, Spanking New, Battery !

For another perspective

Do Update.
My iPhone 7, My iPad Air 2 and my three Macs all updated, super smooth, and without any issue whatsoever.

Imagine if the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus weren't a flop !!!

They might have actually sold something.

Okay, what about iTunes Match? I subscribe and it’s up in September. Will we still need iTunes Match to get our non-iTunes tracks uploaded to our iCloud library?

No Change.
All my iTunes Match songs ~25,000+ are showing up in Catalina / Apple Music. 

To Update:

Put AirPods in Case
Connect Power to Case
Place near iPhone, while iPhone is connected to Wifi.

Check in ten minutes
Updated !

To check:
place AirPods in Case
Open case
Settings/General/About/Airpods

iCorona  !!!

I know it won't happen because, most likely, it does not make business sense for Apple to do so.

But I really really hope and pray that Apple simply says "ENOUGH!!"

And they pull the iPhone OUT of the EU countries, ....seriously !!

What will the EU and users in the EU do ??

Sue Apple, because they HAVE TO be forced to sell the iPhone in the EU ?  

Will EU users be forced to "choose" Android phones ??  ...a choice they've always had, to this very moment  

Talk about inflicting some real inconvenience on those EU users, if Apple said go eff yourselves, and buy Android !!!

PS
And of course, the black market for iPhones would be huge BUT at least Apple can manufacture the iPhone they deem, with the software and functionality they deem,
and the EU users would again have the choice they have always had;
Android or Black market iPhone, but with an iPhone as it was intended to be manufactured and delivered by Apple

The rumor from the past week that iPhone unit sales would be lower than projected was in fact true.

Like a typical ANALyst, Pulled that point right out of your *ss.  With a never, ever, before seen Average selling Price of about $796.42, it would Contradict that uninformed comment. ….So No, Not True

You have terrible reading comprehension.  Says in the article iPhone sales were DOWN 1.2%.  This means they sold FEWER iPhones than the same quarter last year.  But yes the ASP was fantastic, and much better than expected.  Means lots of iPhone X and not a lot of iPhone 8

No. My reading comprehension is very astute. Cherry picking information is NOT reading comprehension.
As it has been pointed out, this was a 13 week quarter being compared to a 14 week quarter. So an Apples to Apples comparison and review, will yield about 5 to 6% MORE iPhones being sold. BUT don't Let FACTS get in the way of your trolling, please.
