If we can beat them .. we ban them
Apple is bad quality.
overpriced phones. Apple was not able to catch up with the technology of most of the phone manufacturers today.Only thing you can blame to China is that they are making better phones which are half the price. Apple is greedy, if they reduce the price of their phones they might be able to do better.
Tim cook is the foolest CEO of the world……
Watching on my Huawei P20
Apple is simply losing the competition due to no innovation on iPhone. Huawei makes better phone, and now they sell more than Apple.
Well , here in India , we get good budget phones in 1/10 th of price of apple. U really have overpriced your products in India. One plus gives better UI experience at half the price . Why one should buy apple?
Apple is not competitive anymore, but still charging way more than it actually worth.
anyone notice the CNBC logo??? thats the reason LoL😅😅😅
Blame yourself lol.
What an idiot
Wrong Mr Cook, you've got it all wrong…every year Apple introduce new Iphones, the prices go up up and up. And for what ? For minor improvements which clearly do not justify these increases
Steve Jobs would be PISSED of how Tim Cook is making the iPhones poorly made and the iPad Pro bend like PAPER. If he was a smart man, he would let one of his children take over Apple as CEO. Cook is NOT the man for running Apple, this son of a bitch is destroying Apple from the ground up!
Tim Cook should step down..
Why they haven't fired Tim Crook?
tim cook is too arrogant. just admit to the truth..charging way tooo much for shit ass products. ya'll lazy af and greedy af. tim cook is the worst thing to happen to apple.
No Apple, if you listened to your customers you would understand that we don’t want what you think we do. You butchered all your products by so called simplifications. Now your products genuinely suck. Your company seriously sickens me now and I am sure many of your other faithfuls feel the same.
The problem is 1400 quid for a phone no phone I repeated no phone is worth £1000+ flagships no more than 799 pathetic overpriced
Tim Cook you might as well label yourself as a crook. U greedy bastard!!! iPhones used to be affordable now u gotta sell your kids to get one. Go find a new job and don’t let the door hit you on your way out u A**hole!!!
Apple needs a change not only in pricing but also in the management specially this sly crook…
C’mon it still only cost a kidney to buy
I’m Thai live inThailand and I use only iPhone but I change my mind.The next ones won’t be iPhone because now it’s much more expensive than its quality.Don’t blame China blame your greed.The price should be competitive and reasonable.
ok, our sales is bad. is the buyer fault. and those cheaper competitor broke the market rule. no my problem.
No no, I don't think so. As a Chinese buyer, I bought three iPhone. I want to switch to other brand google or Huawei is because the newest Iphone really disappointed me because it is not innovative anymore. Mobile phone should not be a luxury product like LV bag.
Blame yourself bitch
China China China, come on guys. anything new?
Jobs:idiot.
he is idiot apple price so much high
If one examines Apple’s market shares in China and India over the last many quarters, the trend is very clear. Apple has been losing its competitive edge not just in price, but also in customer service, in features like camera, etc. The US-China trade tension is only a very trivial factor in the case of China.
Tim Cook blaming China for his conpanies woes, right then. How about the fact it costs almost $1,500 for one of their phones. A few months ago Apple was the most valuable company in the world worth over $1 trillion. It is now worth less than Microsoft, Alphabet and Amazon. Nice one Tim, bet your share holders are really pleased with you. 🤣
150 dollars for a decent smartphone, why would waste money on iPhone garbage.
He is not blaming china, but the trade war, i.e. Trump.
If Apple keeps saying BS and bring denial, they are gonna end up like BlackBerry. I want to take my money out of Apple stock already. What a dumb statement. Your analysts need to be fired like right now
I'm not really that much interested in China but I'm highly disappointed that Tim Cook blamed China for this poor sales. Sir get yourself together. Your phones are as expensive as MacBook Pro. The statement he made to get away from this was epic failed. Apple rather failed on pricing
"We need to answer to our investors and directors for the weak iPhone sales". Tim Cook: "Fine, let's blame it on China!"
Yes, its obviously not because the lack of innovation and overpriced products when there are better cheaper options. No its not that… its china.

America and all American allies must move factories out of China. Look how they are retaliating at a US company for politics. Tibet and Xin Jiang must be independent. TAIWAN NUMBER WAN ! BABY
