CUPERTINO, Ca. ? Apple said Monday that its first weekend sales for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus topped 10 million units, another record.
Apple didn’t break out sales between the two models, though the iPhone 6 Plus seemed to be a much harder device to find over the weekend.
“Sales for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus exceeded our expectations for the launch weekend, and we couldn’t be happier,” said Apple CEO Tim Cook in a statement, reported by CNET News.Com.
This year’s iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are most notable for their scaled-up screen sizes of 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches, respectively, giving Apple fans the option of larger handsets already commonplace among Android phones. The devices went on sale Friday in 10 countries, starting at $199 for the iPhone 6 with 16GB of storage space and going up to $499 for the 6 Plus with 128GB of memory. The smartphones will go on sale in 20 more countries starting Sept. 26.
