Apple has released its fiscal Q2 results today, which include sales figures for both the iPhone and the iPad, and the figures are unexpectedly big.

Over the March quarter, the Cupertino-based company posted $39.2 billion in revenue with a net profit of $11.6 billion. Those figures are way up from the same quarter a year ago where the company posted $24.7 billion in revenue and $6.0 billion netprofit.

The driving force behind the company’s success has been its two flagship devices, the iPhone and iPad.

During the quarter, the company sold over 35 million iPhones, 35.1 million to be specific, and it also sold 11.8 million iPads. The iPhones sold in the quarter represent an 88 percent increase over the amount sold in the same quarter in 2011 while the iPad figure absolutely blew last year’s tally out of the water.

    Great. So Apple is booming. After this news its shares rise up-to 8% in the trading. This is really a slap for those people who were saying Apple is facing slowdown. So where is the slowdown ?

    I personally feel that after the death of Steve jobs the number of iphones solds increased despite the fact the new iphone 5 is not as good as it was expected to be. Still the sales numbers have shocked most of us.
