Good morning! Here's the tech news you need to know this Wednesday. 1. Apple reported its first annual revenue decline in 15 years as sales of the iPhone continue to shrink. The decline comes as Wall Street frets that the world's most valuable company doesn't have a game-changing new product to revive its growth. 2. Apple sold 45.5 million Phones in the last quarter. Analysts were expecting 45 million iPhone sales. It's a slight beat. 3. Marc Benioff had a stake in Quip before Salesforce bought it for $750 million. Quip was founded by Facebook's former CTO, Bret Taylor. 4. Chinese smartphone giant Xiaomi has announced a new phone called Mi Mix. The device has a 6.4-inch edge-to-edge screen. 5.

The company is operating in an increasing number of verticals. 10. VC Peter Thiel and Zenefits CEO David Sacks apologized for writing a book that downplayed rape.
