Where the First Million iPhones Were Sold

August 6, 2008 · Print This Article

In case you ever wondered how iPhone 3G sales have been distributed across the globe, a recent study conducted by Goldman Sachs Global Investment Research shows just where the first million went. 

As expected, the U.S., Japan, Germany and France topped the curve, taking in a cumulative 81% of the first million 3G iPhones sold. But that isn’t really news. 

What is interesting, however, is the dispersal of carriers. And though AT&T

tops the list with 600,000 units sold, T-Mobile sold 89,000, Orange sold 77,000 and Softbank Mobile sold 70,000 in the overseas market. 

Even though the iPhone is a U.S. dominated product at the moment, it still has a large resonance overseas. that input reflects only the first three days of sales, so it may be affected by the initial troubles public had registering.
