Iiholide zeKrisimesi lixesha lonyaka apho inani elikhulu leenkampani liphuma ebomvu, ngakumbi ezo zeteknoloji ukusukela oko izixhobo zombane zihlala zisisipho esifanelekileyo kuye nabani na. Lo nyaka khange ube ngunyaka olungileyo kwi-Apple malunga nentengiso yesixhobo sayo esiphambili, i-iPhone, emele ngaphezulu kwesiqingatha sengeniso yenkampani unyaka wonke. Ngokwedatha yeFlurry, le Khrisimesi nangona iyinkampani efumene ezona zixhobo zininzi, omnye unyaka ongaphezulu, omele ukuthengisa, zisibonisa ukuba intengiso ye-iPhone iqhubeka njani ukuwa, ixhalabisa kuba ezi datha zibhekisa eUnited States, ilizwe apho I-Apple inesabelo esikhulu semarike.
Ngokwedatha, ukusebenza kweefowuni zika-Apple ukusukela nge-19 ukuya kwi-25 kaDisemba, elona xesha libaluleke kakhulu leKrisimesi eMelika, yehlile ukusuka kuma-49,1% ukuya kuma-44% kulo nyakaokanye, nto leyo emele ukwehla kwe-5% xa kuthelekiswa nexesha elifanayo kunyaka ophelileyo.

Kwiminyaka nje emithathu edlulileyo, ukhetho lwabasebenzisi lwezixhobo ezinobungakanani bescreen obukhulu kune-intshi ye-5,5 zibalwa kuphela nge-3% yentengiso. Kucacile ukuba ukumiliselwa kweemodeli ezintsha ze-iPhone kunye nescreen esikhudlwana kukwazile ukukhawulezisa ukwamkelwa kolu hlobo lweselfowuni ngobukhulu besikrini.
