Apple CFO Luca Maestri during Apple’s Q123 conference call on February 2, 2023:
For Mac and iPad, we expect revenue for both product categories to decline double digits year over year because of challenging compares and macroeconomic headwinds.
We have low share and we have a competitive advantage with Apple silicon. And so, strategically, I think we’re well-positioned in the market, albeit I think it will be a little rough in the short term. – Apple CEO Tim Cook, February 2, 2023
