The first billion iPhones sold by Apple
Apple surpassed the 1 billion iPhone sold mark in 2016, practically after a decade since the launch of the first iPhone. And now, just 4 years later, the manufacturer has sold nearly 1 billion iPhones.
The numbers become even more impressive if we take into account that the global sale of smartphones has decreased significantly in recent years. Also, considering smartphones are now much more expensive, it's surprising to imagine how high the company's revenues have been since 2016.
Few companies in the world enjoy the luck and popularity that allowed Apple to achieve this fascinating number of iPhone sales in such a short time. When Apple reached the mark of its first billion iPhones sold, Tim Cook posted the following message on Apple's official website:
"The iPhone has become one of the most important, revolutionary and successful products in history. It has become more than a constant companion. The iPhone is a truly essential part of our everyday life and allows us to carry out almost all our activities. daily.
In the last week we passed another massive milestone as we sold our billionth iPhone. We do not intend to be the biggest, but to produce the best products, the ones that can make a difference. Thank you to everyone at Apple for helping to change the world every day."
2 Billion iPhones Sold in 2020 Could Be Possible Thanks to 5G
Obviously, the number of 2 billion iPhones sold implies the combined sales of each iPhone model. Some of the best-selling devices were the iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone SE and iPhone X. It is very likely that Apple will reach the mark later this year as it will be the year that Apple finally launches a device with 5G connectivity.
