Apple Watch was probably the largest launch since Jobs died, and now it’s the dominant smart watch. Apple Silicon breathed new life into the mac lineup. AirPods have become the standard bluetooth earbuds. I think apple has been doing great with new products recently (after struggling in the late 2010s, as shown by their extreme emphasis on services instead of products then) and I hope they keep that momentum instead of compromising on ads.
Apple won't release sales figures for it. It's such a small market, compared to everything else that Apple does. Being the biggest fish in a very small pond doesn't add up to much.

No disagreement- I'm using one right now. Fantastic chip, the M1. But it's an iteration on an existing product, not a revolution. It's not something new. It doesn't enable anything that you couldn't do before.
Speaking of Apple, Apple Watch, and data collection, how long do you think it will be until an insurance company subpoenas Apple for it's health data? "You said you didn't have a preexisting condition on your application, but you knew you had an arithmia, because your watch told you so. Therefore, we have no choice but to deny your claim"
