Apple's new iPhone outsells previous model by 14% in US, China
"The iPhone 17 series outsold the iPhone 16 range by 14% over their respective first 10 days on sale in the US and China, according to Counterpoint Research. The data, giving the first quantified indication of consumer response in Apple's top two markets, shows the standard iPhone 17 is in much higher demand than the corresponding $799 model last year. Counterpoint's analysts attribute the boost to an improved display, more storage and the upgraded A19 chip."
"Consumers are resonating with the base model iPhone 17 on improved specs and upgrades, senior analyst Ivan Lam said. In China, sales are almost double those of the base iPhone 16 over the initial availability period and the momentum continues to be good into October. At the other end of Apple's lineup, the iPhone 17 Pro Max is also seeing strong demand, particularly in the US."
The iPhone 17 series recorded 14% higher sales than the iPhone 16 over the first 10 days in the US and China, driven by strong demand for the standard iPhone 17. The base model benefits from an improved display, greater storage and the upgraded A19 chip, boosting consumer interest. In China, base-model sales are nearly double those of the prior generation during initial availability, while the iPhone 17 Pro Max is drawing pandemic-era upgraders in the US due to better cameras, improved heat dissipation and a major physical redesign. iPhone sales still generate roughly half of Apple’s revenue, despite AI development missteps and delayed Apple Intelligence rollout in China.
