iPhone 6 preorders set new overnight record for Apple

<div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><a href='http://www.imore.com/iphone-6-preorders-set-new-overnight-record-apple' title="iPhone 6 preorders set new overnight record for Apple"><img src='http://www.imore.com/sites/imore.com/files/styles/large_wm_brw/public/field/image/2014/09/iphone_6_iphone_6_plus_black_demo_heroes.jpg?itok=ayd7IYHP' />[/url]</p> <p>Apple, typically tight-lipped about such things, says that pre-orders for the new iPhone 6 (http://www.imore.com/iphone-6) and iPhone 6 Plus (http://www.imore.com/iphone-6-plus) set a new overnight record for the company. The newest iPhones went live for pre-order at midnight Pacific time last night, and while there was plenty of glitching along the way, that didn't stop many from getting in their order (http://www.imore.com/iphone-6-pre-orders-live-what-did-you-get). Apple isn't alone in the new bigger iPhones being an overnight pre-order hit — AT&amp;T's said that pre-order demand for the phones was greater than the last two phone launches (https://twitter.com/Ryan_Knutson/status/510403289188675584).</p> <!--break--> <p>In a statement to Re/code (http://recode.net/2014/09/12/larger-iphone-6-plus-sells-out-amid-strong-demand-for-apples-latest-crop/), Apple said:</p>
<p>"Response to iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus has been incredible with a record number of preorders overnight."</p>
<p>Of course, that's a vague block of time, "overnight", but a record number is still a record number. To put things into perspective, Apple didn't offer pre-orders for the iPhone 5s (http://www.imore.com/iphone-5s˽&quot;iPhone˽5s:˽Everything˽you˽need˽to˽know&quot;), but did for the iPhone 5 — and pre-sold more than 2 million in the first day (http://www.imore.com/apple-announces-first-day-iphone-5-pre-orders-top-2-million).</p> <p>Pent up demand for a larger screen iPhone seems to be getting released here for sure. So who pre-ordered, and what did you get?</p> <p>Source: Re/code (http://recode.net/2014/09/12/larger-iphone-6-plus-sells-out-amid-strong-demand-for-apples-latest-crop/)</p> </div></div></div><div id="comment-wrapper-nid-26991"></div><img width='1' height='1' src='http://tipb.com.feedsportal.com/c/33998/f/616881/s/3e68fc85/sc/5/mf.gif' border='0'/><br clear='all'/>
