Тhis one won’t be an exception, it seems, especially with the launch of the AirPods Pro model. Apple can sleep tight knowing that its wearables and the basic iPhone 11 are among the most desired items for this season’s stocking stuffers, as renowned analyst Horace Dediu of Asymco fame ran the numbers, and found out that it may have cracked the $4 billion revenue from AirPods alone over the holiday quarter.

That statistic alone is pretty staggering, as Apple was known at the time as “the iPod company” and even stopped calling itself Apple Computer as a result of the runaway success of its music player.

To know that a single, almost obligatory to have “hearable” is now hauling in more than what the iPod hauled for Apple at its most popular, is pretty staggering. Long story short, if your teen isn’t giving you easy clues what they’d most like as a present, those would be $160-$250 well-spent.
