Apple today reported another record set of results, beating expectations with an all-time high profit of $18.4 billion and revenues of $75.9 billion, with some $216 billion in cash now on its balance sheet.

Jan 26, 10:14PM
Apple posted its quarterly earnings after the bell on Tuesday, showcasing record profits of $18.4 billion. While the release made it easy to determine that 74.8 million iPhones were sold, in line with analyst estimates, Apple’s “other” category makes it difficult to assess how many Apple Watches and TVs were purchased. Read MoreApple Reports 1 Billion "Active" Devices

In Apple’s Q1 ’16 “Earnings Supplemental Material” – documentation added to today’s earnings primarily to highlight how foreign exchange rates are impacting revenue – there was another notable figure revealed: Apple says now its “active” install base has reached 1 billion devices.

Jan 26, 9:51PM
Apple showed soft year-over-year revenue growth for China in Q1, and it’s clear the party may be slowing down in the region.

Apple today reported sales of 74.8 million iPhones, 16.1 million iPads, and 5.3 million Macs in its Q1 earnings report today. Apple’s first quarter includes holiday sales, as the three-month period ends December 31, 2015. As such, it was supposed to be one of Cupertino’s best quarters of the year. Plus, the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus both went live on September 25, meaning… Read MoreApple Beats Earnings Expectations, But Misses On iPhone Sales
Jan 26, 9:38PM
It was a hugely important quarter for Apple, and it looks like it came about in line with what investors were expecting — including, potentially, the company’s first sales decline going into the second quarter. Apple said it recorded $75.9 billion in revenue and earnings of $3.28 per share in the first quarter. That represents a record quarter for Apple on revenue, but slightly… Read MoreDown The Hype Cycle: A 3D Printer In Every Home?

Can a mobile classified app topple the behemoth that is Craigslist? We’ve asked the question before (more than once, in fact), and it looks like it may be in order again: 5miles, an app developed in China but being rolled out in the U.S. first as a quick way for people to list and buy items locally, has raised $30 million in funding to beat the classifieds leader at its own game.… Read MoreGoogle Takes On Twitter By Integrating Real-Time Responses From Presidential Candidates Into Search Results
