Report: O2 sells 190,000 Apple iPhones in UK in first 8 weeks

The Financial TImes is reporting that “people familiar with the situation” told them that O2’s total Apple iPhone sales in the UK for the first eight weeks was about 190,000. That’s an average of 3,400 UK iPhone sales per day over the first 8 weeks.

O2 said shortly before the iPhone’s UK launch that it expected handset sales of 200,000 in the first two months.

O2 declined to comment on the sales figures but said it was “delighted with the response to the iPhone, which has seen unprecedented levels of customer satisfaction,” FT reported.

The Apple iPhone was O2’s fastest-selling handset “by a significant margin,” according to the report.
