It was called "a huge hit" only in clickbait headlines. It was a year-over-year drop in sales, 2021-2022 sales were just too good - everyone stocked up a mac. 2022-2023 M2 were not an upgrade for M1, Apple knew it and didn't stock up too much. M3 and availability of base configs with 16Gb almost fixed the consumption cycle, not discounts.

Discounts are mostly unrelated to sales.

I would probably be more surprising if they were flying off the shelves.

It's sadly amazing how much was invested in stirring the market around to get all major brands coordinated to release ARM for business laptops, for such little impact (or any) at all.

So that makes three OEMs drastically reducing the price of their snapdragons mere months after release. They aren't selling.
