Orange’s iPhone: Sets New Sales Record
Filed under: Cell Phone Information, Cell Phones
According to reports it seems that today has seen a new record set for a British mobile phone launch, the record was set by Orange with their release of the iPhone
Guardian.co.uk are reporting that Orange have managed to sell over 30,000 handsets within its first day, Orange originally were beaten to the exclusivity to the handset in the UK by O2, therefore these sales figures will be all the more welcome.
Many wondered if Orange’s excessive data limitations may affect the popularity of the handset on the carrier, however these figures seems to suggest that this did not impact sales too greatly.

I could not be more pleased with the iPhone. Having already owned an iPod touch, was pleased to see that, unlike previous Orange handsets, this one wasn’t modded in any way at all (Orange logo on the casing, unremoveable orange toolbars and modifications to the menu screen, colour schemes, etc). I wasn’t that bothered about the 3G “limits” as I know that as a sensible phone user, I wouldn’t have noticed it. Affordable too. I’m overall extremely pleased to have been loyal to Orange and not left for O2.
