Apple has achieved remarkable growth in regional markets, marking a significant milestone for the tech giant. The company's expansion into emerging markets, notably India, has led to record-breaking revenue figures and strong double-digit growth, as pointed out by CEO Tim Cookhttps://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-reports-significant-growth-in-emerging-markets-as-quarterly-revenue-nears-US-90-billion.765432.0.html
"Apple's [...] commitment towards delivering high-quality [...] services, has"
If this is Tim Cook's reported opinion, reported speech must be indicated, e.g., as indirect speech. If, however, this is Sambit Saha's opinion, he should provide reasons including an explanation why illegal, criminal conditions in the iCloud terms constitute high rather than lowest quality service.

Well of course, it's natural human behaviour - the poorer the country is that more people want to flex with insignificant "wealth-symbols" such as overpriced tech. It's not easy to get a Bugatti but getting expensive phone will still do the trick especially when most people around you use cheap random phones.
This is the normal movement of the world economy, less importance of the USA and more importance of the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa). These are the protagonists of the future. And they are all is against the USA lol

QuoteApple's CEO Tim Cook recently announced record-breaking growth in India, describing the company's strong performance in quite a few emerging markets. In Apple's recent earnings call, Cook revealed that Apple achieved an all-time revenue record in India, showcasing significant double-digit growth in the market. This success is a testament to the company's focus on India,
Then the rest of the countries in the article:
Quotewhich Cook, in his own words, described as an "incredibly exciting market" for Apple.
Apple reported an overall global revenue of US$89.5 billion for the September quarter, achieving impressive records in numerous other countries, including Brazil, Canada, France, Indonesia, Mexico, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the UAE, and more. The iPhone segment, specifically, saw robust performance, with revenue reaching $43.8 billion, up 3% YoY, and has set a new record for the September quarter. Apple's iPhone's active installed base also reached an all-time high, and 2023 marked another record year for customer switches.

The entry level iPhone 15 pro max costs 159900 INR ($1,922.83) in India, but the same phone in USA costs $1199. That phone was out of stock on launch day in a country where majority of the market is between $200 to $300.
