Apple being a popular brand name when it comes to cellular phones and pc's has released the iphone6 and ipnone 6+, apple's stores attracted long lines of shoppers for the debut of the latest iPhones, indicating robust pent-up demand for bigger-screen smartphones.
The iPhone 6 and the 6 Plus became available starting in Australia, before rolling out in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, France, Germany, Puerto Rico, Canada and the United States. Consumers in New York and San Francisco had already formed queues to be first to buy the gadgets.
Pedro Regadillo began waiting outside Apple's store on Fifth Avenue in New York about two weeks ago. The 59-year-old Air Force veteran, who has stood in line to buy iPhones three times before on the first day of sales, said he had his heart set on an iPhone 6 Plus, which has a 5.5-inch screen.
"I love the size," said Regadillo, who was near the front of a line that wound its way around the block and included tourists who had flown in from Brazil. "I've got a problem with my vision."
Apple's iPhone rollout is the most important event this year for the Cupertino, California-based company. Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook is counting on the handsets to maintain Apple's sales growth. The devices generate more than half of the company's annual $171 billion in revenue and precedes a swath of other products, including new iPads and Apple Watch. The iPhones also sport larger screens — 4.7 inches and 5.5 inches, compared with 4 inches for previous models — helping Apple appeal to new consumers.
The iPhone 6 is now up for pre-order but unless you got in there
quickly, you'll be looking at a lengthy wait for your new smartphone.
Apple has announced that it received four million orders for the iPhone 6
and iPhone 6 Plus in the first 24 hours - twice that of the iPhone 5s.
All of the models, apart from the silver 16GB iPhone 6 state a delivery
of 3-4 weeks on Apple's UK store.wow such a lot of loyalty by apple users!!
