Apple has sold more than 10 million new iPhone 6 just three days after the sale took place on 19 September. The new iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus is already available in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Puerto Rico, Singapore and the United Kingdom, while others will land in 20 other countries-among which Italy – September 26. The new iPhone will be available in 115 countries by the end of the year. The title on the stock market opened upward in the wake of the news, then dropped and is now in slight decline around $ 100 per share.

Cook: exceeded our expectations …
“The sales for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus they have exceeded our expectations for the launch weekend, and we could not be happier-stressed Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO – We are working hard to cope with orders as quickly as possible. ” iPhone 6 is available in gold, silver or gray space, and is on sale in the United States for a suggested retail price of $ 199 for the 16GB model, $ 299 for the 64GB model and, for the first time, a new model 128GB for $ 399 with a two-year contract.

… It still lacks the China
The numbers of the iPhone – analysts say – are particularly good because it does not include China, which accounts for 17% of sales and where the iPhone 6 is not yet on the market waiting for the necessary permissions. “We are encouraged by the strong demand” highlight analysts at Citigroup, predicting that sales of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus will reach 15 million units by the end of the month and 45 million at the end of December. “Even without China, Apple has been able to achieve $ 6.5 billion in sales in three days,” states Walter Piecyk, the research firm BTIG.
