Apple’s financials continue to be in an ever-so-slight slump. Just as we saw the last two quarters, the company suffered minor declines in revenue in its fiscal Q3 2023 — but these are minor blips for a company that is still raking in absurd amounts of money every quarter.
As has often been the case, revenue that Apple made from its Services segment (things like paid iCloud plans, Apple Music, AppleCare, the App Store and numerous other offerings) hit an all-time high of $21.2 billion. That’s the company’s second-largest product category behind the iPhone, and it grew eight percent year-over-year. But iPhone, Mac and iPad revenue all declined compared to a year ago, the same as it did last quarter.
In the case of the iPhone, that decline was slight: revenue of $39.7 billion in the quarter was down about two percent compared to a year ago. iPad (down 19.8 percent) and Mac (down 7.3 percent) sales declined more significantly. But given the fact that Apple hasn’t refreshed any iPad hardware since last fall, it’s not too surprising to see a drop there. Wearables (like the Apple Watch and AirPods) and accessories were another bright spot, as revenues grew a little over two percent, the only product category besides Services to do so.
Overall, revenues of $81.8 billion represented a less than two percent drop year over year, while profits actually increased about two percent to $19.9 billion.
As usual, Apple is holding a call with CEO Tim Cook at 5PM ET, and there’s more to discuss this quarter than usual. Beyond Apple’s normal product categories, this is the first earnings since the ambitious and wildly expensive Vision Pro headset was announced, so it’s likely investors may want to hear about how that new product is progressing. And there’s the ever-present talk of potential AI-related projects hanging out in the background, too. We’ll be updating this post with any details Cook shares on the call.

Brave’s search engine no longer requires that you jump to Bing or Google just to find photos or videos. The company has introduced image and video queries to Brave Search, helping you find media while maintaining the same levels of privacy and freedom of access. You won’t have to worry about being profiled through your picture hunts, or risk missing politically sensitive content (if unintentionally) pulled from another engine’s index.
You’ll still have the option of continuing searches through competitors, at least for a while. Brave notes that some search features, such as filtering by aspect ratio or license, aren’t ready yet. The choice helps you get the results you’re looking for, so long as you don’t mind using a major engine. It’s more important to have a “clear alternative” than absolute feature equality, Brave argues.
Anyone can use Brave’s search engine in the web, although it’s set as the default in the company’s browser. The firm hopes to expand its reach by asking users to contribute to an anoynmous Web Discovrey Project.
The relative newcomer launched its homegrown search in 2021, but has stood out from similarly privacy-oriented challengers like DuckDuckGo by trying to avoid the use of third-party indexes. Brave stopped using Bing’s search index in May. That cut seven percent of results, but also gave Brave more control over its results.
This won’t necessarily lead to a surge in market share. Brave doesn’t even register in StatCtounter’s browser market share statistics — it’s not in a position to upset heavyweights like Chrome, Edge and Safari. However, this does eliminate a major objection if you’re an enthusiast determined to minimize data collection at much as possible.
