This is the strongest product cycle Apple has had in the last decade, Ives said: "this is a true supercycle."

Ives told CNBC he believes the street is underestimating the growth of Apple. Services are a big part of that growth, he said A year ago, services were worth $200 billion to $300 billion, but today, services are worth about $1.3 trillion, he added. 

Ives has an Outperform rating and a $185 price target on Apple.
