The smartphone industry seems to be immune to broader market trends. Apple dominates the profit, with Samsung being the only other winner to any extent... There's just no competition. Huawei might finally upset the norm in North America next year.
In other news, I was on apple.ca earlier today, still no issue ordering any 6s model for a Sept.25 delivery. Really hoping the greedy pricing keeps people away from this year's upgrade.
