Today Sprint announced that the iPhone’s launch on its network resulted in the carrier’s best day ever in sales. Apple announced its partnership with Sprint to offer the iPhone 4S and 8GB iPhone 4 last week.
After today’s launch day, the iPhone has given Sprint more sales than any product ever on its network.
Fared Adib, Sprint Product Chief:
“Sprint today reported its best ever day of sales in retail, web and telesales for a device family in Sprint history with the launch of iPhone 4S and iPhone 4. We reached this milestone at approximately noon CT/1pm ET. The response to this device by current and new customers has surpassed our expectations and validates our customers’ desire for a truly unlimited data pricing plan.”
Rumors suggested for months that Sprint and Apple would partner for the next iPhone launch leading up to last week’s announcement.
Sprint offers its customers the unique option of purchasing an unlimited data plan with the iPhone.
AT&T also announced a record number of iPhone activations for today’s iPhone 4S launch.
