Apple has sold 13m of its new iPhone 6s and 6s Plus - a new record
Despite only being available in a handful of launch markets, Apple has sold over 13 million of the new iPhones so far - a new record, just three days after going on sale. Over 40 additional countries will be able to get their hands on the devices from October 9, expanding to more than 130 markets by the end of this year.
To put that sales figure into a broader context, it took Microsoft three months to sell 8.4 million of its Lumia handsets; and BlackBerry - which has just confirmed that it is launching an Android flagship - sold just 800,000 smartphones during its last quarter.
Meanwhile, the iOS 9 update continues to roll out to several generations of Apple's earlier mobile devices - and that release too has broken company records. Apple announced last week that a staggering 50% of all eligible devices had upgraded within the first 72 hours of availability; by comparison, it took a full year for iOS 8 to reach 87% adoption.

gtapro151TiffxnyHippaySwift Its amazing that people will just buy a product because of a name.
because name lol because android **** sucks look at the sales idiot.
I've had both, I feel like there is so much more you can do with android.
I have had both these new iphones come as a long needed update for the iphone side. I mean it out geekbenched the s6 with just 2 cores. I have had s6 and note 5,4 until the 6s i would never have owned a iphone since the 4s.
Well I haven't had an iPhone since 5, they are getting better but Imo the android is still an overall better product regardless of sale stats.

Wow. Really? Well I guess me being an android person and hating iPhones this is a norm for people wanting to buy "high value" apple products

Haha, I have an Apple device, but I can say their are pros and cons to both Apple/Android. Apple product though is like buying a crumb off the floor for 5$.
