Apple announced today that it sold a record 13 million
iPhone 6s and 6s Plus handsets over launch weekend, shattering last
weekend’s record of 10 million.
In a press release today, Apple’s CEO Tim Cook said “sales for iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus have been phenomenal, blowing past any previous first weekend sales results in Apple’s history.”
Interestingly, Foursquare predicted how many handsets would be sold on launch weekend using its location data and was right on the mark.
Unlike the launch of the iPhone 6, stock appears to have been less constrained for the iPhone 6s which likely helped sales as handsets continue to be in stock at many US stores.
That, along with the device being available in China from launch for the first time likely fueled the first weekend’s sales.
Apple also confirmed that the iPhone 6s will be available in 40 more countries beginning October 9 including Andorra, Austria, Belgium, Bosnia, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Greece, Greenland, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Isle of Man, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Maldives, Mexico, Monaco, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and Taiwan.
On top of that, Apple says that the iPhone 6s will be available in a total of 130 countries by the end of the year.
