Apple announces record iPhone 6s sales of 13 million

China is estimated to have accounted for between 2 and 2.5 million unit sales, meaning non-China sales rose by between 5 per cent and 10 per cent, according to analysts FBR & Co.
The new models went on sale in the UK last Friday, prompting fans to queue overnight outside London’s Covent Garden store to be among the first to get their hands on them.
