While supply chain constraints were resolved in 4Q22, Apple expects to continue experiencing macroeconomic challenges in 1Q23 as well as an estimated negative 500-basis-point impact from foreign exchange headwinds. By segment, the company expects to see year-to-year decreases in Mac and iPad revenue and an increase in Services revenue. TBR estimates iPhone revenue will decrease by low-single digits year-to-year in 1Q23 as Apple expects iPhone revenue growth to improve, albeit marginally.

When Will GenAI Impact the Devices Market?
GenAI has not yet greatly affected the devices market and is not expected to begin to change device usage and requirements until CY2025, with the real impact beginning in CY2026. Right now, devices essentially serve as thin clients for cloud-based GenAI applications. Some PCs run machine learning applications that are helpful but inessential. Both iOS and Android smartphones use neural processing units (NPUs) for computational photography, but so far there are no significant large language model (LLM) applications running on devices.
Expectations for AI PCs in 2024
Understanding that despite the bright future of AI PC, near-term commercial PC refreshes could potentially be delayed as organizations await the development of the first “killer application” that markedly differentiates performance between these new AI-optimized machines and PCs that are presently deployed.
