Agreed. I also can't find any reference about iPhone 5s wildly exceeding expectations.
It looks like Apple put two horses in the race. One performed as expected, the other did not.
The article did say that iPhone 5s sales were good, but in my view, that's secondary. No burying the lede from my view.
They adjusted their revenue guidance upwards after announcing weekend sales. I would think at least one of the iPhone models exceeded sales expectations, not just "performed as expected".
