Apple® today announced it has sold over 10 million new iPhone® 6
and iPhone 6 Plus models, a new record, just three days after the
launch on September 19. iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are available in
the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan,
Puerto Rico, Singapore and the UK and will be available in more
than 20 additional countries on September 26. The new iPhones will
be available in 115 countries by the end of the year.
“Sales for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus exceeded our expectations
for the launch weekend, and we couldn’t be happier,” said Tim Cook,
Apple’s CEO. “We would like to thank all of our customers for
making this our best launch ever, shattering all previous
sell-through records by a large margin. While our team managed the
manufacturing ramp better than ever before, we could have sold many
more iPhones with greater supply and we are working hard to fill
orders as quickly as possible.”
iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are the biggest advancements in
iPhone history, featuring two new models with stunning 4.7-inch and
5.5-inch Retina® HD displays, and packed with innovative
technologies in an all-new dramatically thin and seamless design
that is still comfortable to hold and easy to use. Both models are
better in every way and include: the Apple-designed A8 chip with
second generation 64-bit desktop-class architecture for blazing
fast performance and power efficiency; advanced iSight® and
FaceTime® HD cameras; ultrafast wireless technologies; and Apple
Pay™, an easier way to simply and securely make payments with just
the touch of a finger.*
The new iPhones include iOS 8, the biggest release since the App
Store℠, featuring a simpler, faster and more intuitive user
experience with new Messages and Photos features, predictive typing
for Apple’s QuickType™ keyboard and Family Sharing. iOS 8 also
includes the new Health app, giving you a clear overview of your
health and fitness data and iCloud Drive℠, so you can store files
and access them from anywhere.
Customers are encouraged to check the Apple Store® app or online
to receive updates on availability and estimated delivery dates.
Every customer who buys an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus at an Apple
retail store will be offered free Personal Setup service, helping
them customize their iPhone by setting up email, showing them new
apps from the App Store and more, so they’ll be up and running with
their new iPhone before they leave the store. Customers can also
learn more about iOS 8 and their new device through free workshops
at all Apple retail stores worldwide. In the US, the new iPhones
are also available through AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon
Wireless, and additional carriers, and Apple Authorized Resellers
including Best Buy, Radio Shack, Target and Walmart.
