# After Quarterly Revenue Drop Apple has Rebounded the Demand in China

[Apple](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1769/apple-is-on-its-way-to-slow-down-the-hiring-process-in-2023) has to brace for a weakening of demand in China as shoppers have curbed to spend on anemic economy. Well, on **Friday** some analysts have given a warning, after the iPhone maker had mentioned that demand had rebounded in **mid-June** after the [COVID-19](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1538/facebook-parent-meta-says-covid-19-boosters-are-no-longer-required-for-entry) lockdowns had hampered the sales.

The iPhone maker on **Thursday** had reported that quarterly revenue in Greater China fell by **1%**, it has been snapping a streak of strong quarters within the region.

Though, overall Apple's revenue rose by **2%** which almost beats the estimates, the company had mentioned that there would be no delay in demand for [iPhones](https://www.mindstick.com/news/1760/use-the-iphone-like-a-pro-by-using-the-apple-ios-16-tips-and-tricks) globally, even though the macroeconomics indicators have been turning negative.

Apple boss **Tim Cook** had been cursing the drop in Greater China revenue on strict lockdowns in Chinese cities, that eventually forced [millions of people](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85723/punjab-the-state-where-millions-of-people-are-addicted-to-drugs) to remain at home which had affected the Chinese economy.

He mentioned that '**We do have seen lower demand which was due to the COVID lockdowns within the cities and the COVID lockdowns have affected many things. However, we have seen a rebound in those same cities toward the end of the quarter in June timeframe**.'

China's strict curbs to terminate COVID have undercut a recovery within the world's second-[largest economy](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/85530/will-india-be-the-third-largest-economy-by-2027), with customer confidence hovering near record lows. The private investment have been slowing and [youth unemployment](https://yourviews.mindstick.com/view/87146/india-has-the-highest-youth-unemployment-as-tech-jobs-slow-down) would be at the record of **19.3%**, prompting calls for more urgent government stimulus.

Well, this week Apple had declared discounts on iPhones and other hardwares for Chinese customers. It is a move which is occassionally taken by the company when the sales are slow.

**IDC analyst** **Will Wong** had mentioned that unlike in late 2020, when the demand for phones in China had surged after the first COVID lockdown, it has been noticed that the phone sales have been on the line to shrink.

He mentioned that '**It was not simply the lockdown but there were other factors, just like the government [tech](https://www.mindstick.com/services/technologies) crackdown and also the slowdown on the property market, all have a negative effect on the [customer sentiment](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/105703/why-is-social-listening-valuable-for-understanding-customer-sentiment)**.'

Apple has been set to release a new [iPhone model](https://answers.mindstick.com/qa/51515/how-much-internal-storage-does-each-iphone-model-have-can-internal-storage-be-expanded-is-it-possible-to-add-external-storage-does-the-iphone-have-a-microsd-slot) in the autumn.
