(Digital Marketing Agency,
thesnsgroup.com) - With deliveries scheduled to kick start on September 19,
iPhone maker Apple said it took a record four million orders on the first day
the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus were available for the pre-order.
Nevertheless, Analysts have
warned that the iPhone 6 may fail to live up to its pre-launch hype after the
beautiful device was finally unveiled on Tuesday, and this will affect the
sales of the handset.
Analyst Gene Munster of Piper
Jaffray feels early sales of the iPhone 6 may compare unfavorably with those of
its predecessors.
His reasoning is that last year
Apple launched two new iPhones, the 5S and 5C, and immediately took the
previous model off sale. Between them, the two new models sold nine million
units in three days.
Despite the fact that Apple is
likely to sell 6.5m units of iPhone 6 in its first three days on the shelves –
more than the 5.4m 5S phones sold in the same period last year, Munster
believes the sales will drastically go down on the combined figures for both
new phones.
