It is possible that this sounds to you but it is that the specialized analysts in the market are predicting some really high sales for AirPods and it is that the shortage of product in the company's stores this Christmas and the good reception by the media, users and others, suggest that this coming year, twice as many devices could be sold.
The truth is that the 85 million units expected to be sold by Apple in 2020 They would even double the figures achieved by the company with this product this year. We can think that the AirPods are an expensive product and more when we focus on the Pro models, but this does not prevent the combination of sales with the lower priced ones from being able to grow sales to important limits.
El analyst Toni Sacconaghi, Bernstein, affirms in an interview carried out in the well-known medium CNBC that Apple will sell this number of devices in 2020. It is not as we said previously the only analyst who launches to predict spectacular sales for this product and it is that in the United States it is estimated that the income for Apple reached close to 6.000 million dollars during this year. This figure could grow to double in 2020, which is why it is becoming a really important source of income for the company.
As always in these cases, we cannot confirm or deny these figures since we are facing the calculations of an analyst and Apple does not reveal exact sales figures for these AirPods individually in financial results conferences, in fact for some time none of its products, so it is difficult to get the figures right, although it is true that we can get an idea thanks to the calculations in the shipments.
