On August 31, 2026, Apple CEO Tim Cook officially stepped down, with John Trunsk taking over as his successor. Trunsk had previously launched hardware products such as the ultra-thin iPhone Air, MacBook Neo, and AirPods with hearing health features. The handover ceremony was held in July during the Sun Valley Conference in Idaho. Before leaving, Cook emphasized that Apple would focus on its “product builder” strategy and continued to serve as executive chairman of the board, responsible for managing political affairs including relations with China. Trunsk’s appointment means Apple will continue to implement the strategies that brought huge profits under Cook’s leadership. Currently, the company’s annual profit exceeds $100 billion, with a market value of approximately $4.5 trillion. This year, iPhone revenue set new records thanks to the recovery in demand from China.

苹果 CEO 蒂姆·库克在卸任之际任命硬件工程副总裁约翰·特纳斯(John Ternus)接任,并强调“产品构建者”将主导公司未来。库克通过内部备忘录表示,自己虽不再担任 CEO,但仍是员工领袖,并盛赞特纳斯打造改变世界产品的能力。特纳斯曾推出超薄 iPhone Air、MacBook Neo 及带听力健康功能的 AirPods 等硬件产品,其上位意味着苹果将聚焦硬件与产品执行。尽管库克未详述 AI、服务或监管挑战,但他强调公司文化的重要性,并引用史蒂夫·乔布斯名言称苹果致力于在宇宙中留下印记。库克将继续担任执行董事长,负责管理包括特朗普总统及中国政府在内的政治关系。
