Since the introduction of the iPhone in June 2007, sales of the iPod have dramatically decreased from over 10 million units per quarter on average to less than 3 million units in the fourth quarter of 2014, after which Apple stopped reporting sales figures for the iPod as its own category.

At the beginning of 2012, the iPad was the dominant force in the global tablet market with a market share of 58.1 percent. This share decreased to 25.8 percent in the third quarter of 2017 as Apple faced competition from Google and Samsung. The iPad nevertheless remains a major product for Apple with unit sales of 13 million in the first quarter of 2018, generating revenue of over 5.9 billion U.S. dollars.
