Apple Announces a New Mac Sales Record

M5 MacBook ProOn an earnings call earlier this week, Apple CEO John Ternus announced that the company sold more Macs in its 2026 fiscal year than any previous fiscal year. "We have never sold more Macs in a fiscal year than we did this time, which is a truly remarkable testament to these incredible products," he said.

This record is all the more impressive given that several Mac models have faced supply constraints this year. Apple's CFO Kevan Parekh said Mac sales have been driven by the popularity of the MacBook Neo and MacBook Pro lately.

Neo. And would have been more next year if it weren't for the price hikes.

I'm not buying a Mac until my current one completely dies. I even have an older one that I think I can save with a new battery and will probably do that.

People buying to get ahead of the price increases to come next year. The MacBook Neo helped a lot. But with its new higher price, will sales continue at the same rate? I'm not so sure.

The Neo would have sold very well. Think the numbers would have been even higher if the prices were lower.
