These are the wrong numbers. You posted the 2024 numbers, not the 2025 numbers.

2025: iPhone $209.586 billion, Mac $33.708 billion, iPad $28.023 billion, Wearables, Home and Accessories $35.686 billion, Services $109.158 billion, Total $416.161 billion

    I think your conclusion is also wrong. iPad sales are flat, and wearables are actually declining:

    (Wearables, home, and accessories already surpassed Mac sales, although I don't know what exactly is included in accessories.)

    Also, I don't think it's useful to compare wearables to Mac, because Watch isn't much of a computing platform, AirPods aren't a computing platform at all, and Vision Pro has almost no sales. This category is mostly accessories to iPhone.

      I find iPads only marginally interesting now that I don't travel as much. Although the newer magnetic keyboards make them more usable as laptop replacements than they used to be. (Still not totally sold--maybe next longer trip.)

      Re: Macbooks generally. My mind was somewhat blown when a former co-worker told me their kid didn't want a Macbook. They were fine with an iPhone for their schoolwork.

      Personally, I still find MacBooks as the least replaceable category--other than the iPhone. Anything else I could live without as needed.

Not too long ago the iPad was painted as a disappointing product line, relative to the iPhone. It's still bigger than the entire Mac business. Alas.

EDIT: Ack, you're right. Bad comment, self.
