Although Apple has a policy of not releasing unit sales for the Apple Watch, it’s no secret that the device has continued to grow in popularity with each passing year. Especially with last year’s Apple Watch Series 3 — an update which at long last introduced cellular functionality — Apple’s wearable has slowly but surely morphed from a niche product into something of a mainstream device.
In light of that, new research data from IDC reveals that Apple during its most recent fiscal quarter shipped approximately 4.2 million Apple Watch units, a substantial increase from the estimated 2.7 million units the company is believed to have shipped during the September quarter of 2017. All told, Apple Watch shipments grew by an impressive 54% year over year.
