Apple hardware is just built well - much better than their competitors and the devices get software updates many years following the initial purchase. Sometimes even software updates over a decade after the product’s release!

The number of actively used Apple Accounts would be a more meaningful number IMO. I have seven devices registered under my account, not counting one Pair of AirPods. I bet some users have even more devices per account.

But it's an impressive achievement for sure. Probably the largest number they could come up with for the IR call.

That's a staggering number of 'devices' however you define it. And they're pushing monthly fees on all of them too - juicy post-sale revenue.
