If you're getting a little ill over Apple's continued success quarter after quarter, we suggest you turn away from the rest of this story now. However, you can jump to the end for a little schadenfreude.
The company reported Q1 2014 results today (covering October 2013 - December 28, 2013), and among its high notes was word Cupertino set an all-time quarterly iPhone sales record with 51 million units sold.
That's up from 47.8 million in the year-ago quarter.
During the company's earnings call, Apple CFO Peter Oppenheimer didn't break down iPhone sales by model. He did note the iPhone 5S faced supply constraints, yet the line as a whole still managed to top 50 million. There's no word on how the iPhone 5C (which may be the last of its plastic kind) fared.
iPads also hit the all-time quarter record mark, striking upon 26 million compared to 22.9 million a year ago.
Oppenheimer called the last three months "one of the best Mac quarters ever." Apple moved 4.8 million Macs compared to 4.1 million during the same quarter last year. Not bad for a 30-year-old piece of tech.
On the hardware front, iPods took a significant plunge.
The music tech dropped 52% during the quarter, and Oppenheimer said the decline is expected to continue in March.
