Apple sold Five Million iPhone 5 on its first weekend.
Apple announced that it had sold over five million of its new iPhone 5. Coincidence? Five millions of iPhone 5?
iPhone 5 First Weekend Sales Top Five Million
CUPERTINO, California—September 24, 2012—Apple® today announced it has sold over five million of its new iPhone® 5, just three days after its launch on September 21, and more than 100 million iOS devices have been updated with iOS 6, the world’s most advanced mobile operating system. iPhone 5 is available in the US, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore and the UK, and will be available in 22 more countries on September 28 and more than 100 countries by the end of the year. Demand for iPhone 5 exceeded the initial supply and while the majority of pre-orders have been shipped to customers, many are scheduled to be shipped in October.
That means five million units of iPhone 5 in customers’ hands. Apple sold each and every unit in its inventory and yet to fulfill millions of other orders.
As usual, Apple disappoints the analysts and pundits once again since it failed to sell 50 millions of its iPhone 5 in one weekend.

Analysts and pundits are making things up and they get paid for it.

So, iPhone 5 is about to go on sale in the United States in a few hours. Apple is sending emails to everyone in their mailing list and won’t shut up about it. I took a screenshot and obliterated the personal info.

Excuse me, what is this line for?
I visited on of the local Malls with an Apple store around 10:00 PM to see if the line for iPhone 5. According to Mall security, they didn’t let anyone forming a line outside the building until 10:00 PM on the eve of iPhone 5 release. Contrary to 5th Avenue Apple Store in New York, a lot of Apple Store locations didn’t have lines forming until Thursday Evening. There are some local ordinance that prevents such line forming long before the release day.
The security officers stopped me from taking any pictures of the line; it was against the code of conduct of the facility, so I was told. I read them and there’s nothing mention taking photographs in the location. I realized that I should have used my iPhone instead of the DSLR.
iPhone 5 has officially gone on sale somewhere outside the United States. A lucky person who pre-ordered iPhone 5 already had his delivered and using it while waiting in line. I asked why he waited in line. He said that he’s reserving the spot for someone else. Interesting and interstinger. Maybe he would give up that spot to someone else for a modest fee.
All in all, every time an iPhone goes on sale the lines are getting bigger every year than the previous. This year is no exception.
