UPDATE: Apple CEO Tim Cook talked a bit about iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus sales during the Q4 FY17 earnings call, saying that they became the two most popular iPhone models at launch and have been every week since. Cook added that the iPhone 8 Plus is off to the fastest start for any Plus model. The CEO also touched on the iPhone X, saying that pre-order numbers are "very strong."
ORIGINAL: Tomorrow's a big day for Apple thanks to the launch of the iPhone X, but today is notable, too, because it's the release of Apple's Q4 FY17 results.
Apple says that it sold 46.7 million iPhones in Q4 fiscal 2017, which is up slightly from last year when it sold 45.5 million iPhones. iPad sales saw some growth as well, finishing at 10.3 million units compared to 9.3 million during the same period last year.
Like its mobile siblings, Mac sales saw growth during Q4 FY17. Apple says that it sold 5.4 million Macs, up from 4.9 million last year.
Apple's "Other Products" category brought in $3.2 billion in revenue this quarter, up from $2.4 billion in the year ago quarter. The "Other Products" category includes Apple TV, Apple Watch, Beats products, the iPod touch, and Apple-branded and third-party accessories.
Also of note is that Apples "Services" category saw improvement this quarter, too. Services brought in revenue of $8.5 billion for the quarter, up from $6.3 billion in the year-ago quarter.
Rounding things out is Apple's quarterly revenue of $52.6 billion and its net income of $10.7 billion, both of which are up year-over-year.
Apple will hold a conference call at 2:00 pm PT/5:00 pm ET to discuss its earnings. I'll be listening in and will share any interesting tidbits that CEO Tim Cook and Co. drop.
