Apple iPhone sales fall in nearly all countries

Sales of iPhones have fallen in almost every market across the globe, according to the latest results from Apple.

The technology giant said overall demand for its smartphones dropped by more than 10% in the first three months of this year, with sales falling in every geographic region except for Europe.

Apple said that overall, revenues across the



company declined by 4% to $90.8bn (£72.5bn), which was the biggest drop for more than a year.

Nevertheless, the results were not as bad as expected and Apple's share price rose in after-hours trading in New York.

The company said the figures were distorted by Covid-related supply disruptions, which led to unusually strong sales during the same period last year.
