During the quarter, Apple had several new products launch to market. The iPad Air, new M1 MacBook and Mac Mini, four new 5G iPhone 12 models, and the company launched Apple One, a subscription service with different tiers that bundles Apple’s services together. For $15/month, Apple bundles Music, tv+, Arcade, and 50GB of iCloud storage. The highest tier runs $30/month and comes with 2TB of iCloud storage, News+, and Fitness+ as well.

Mac and iPad sales have seen steady growth as folks continue to work and study from home. This quarter ended with 1.65 billion active Apple devices. 1 billion of these active devices are iPhones, according to Apple CEO Tim Cook in an interview with Reuters.

Cook told Reuters that Apple has seen strong sales in China where it sees many new iPhone users who switched from Android rivals while many who already had iPhones have been upgrading to the latest iPhones.

For years now, Apple no longer reveals how many iPhones the company sold in a given quarter, but the iPhone is certainly Apple’s biggest money maker. Here’s Apple’s breakdown of its Q1 revenue across the categories of products that it sells:

  • iPhones: $65.6 billion
  • Services: $15.76 billion
  • Mac: $8.68 billion
  • Wearables, Home, and Accessories: $12.97 billion
  • iPad: $8.44 billion
