According to Apple CEO himself, more Android users switched to iPhone in the last 3 months.
Last quarter Apple has broken all profit records and the iPhone 13 is selling at a rate that we have not seen for several generations. And it seems that a lot of blame for this is due to the so-called “switchers”, those users who have exchanged their Android smartphone for an iPhone.

talking to the CNBCTim Cook said the iPhone 13 cycle has proven to be “clearly a strong cycle” for Apple. iPhone revenue rose from $47.88 billion in the same quarter a year ago to $50.57 billion in the second quarter of 2022, an increase of 5% in just one year.
We had a record level of upgraders during the quarter and we grew switchers, strong numbers with double-digit growth,” Tim Cook told CNBC’s Steve Kovach.

According to the CEO of Apple, the growth of users who upgraded their iPhone for a new model and that of Android users who switched to iPhone had double-digit growth. So, at least, we are talking about a 10% growth compared to the previous data.
