This network is definitely the biggest one with the best coverage. At the same time it cannot guarantee the best connection speed and T-Mobile might even offer better options here.

iPhone 6s Sales Number to Set New Record?

While experts doubt that Apple would reach record iPhone 6s sales number, the company is sure that the pre-orders are on track and could really beat the record set by iPhone 6 sales a year ago. The ‘fruit’ giant mentioned in conversations with reporters that the iPhone 6s pre order numbers are currently ‘on pace’ to set the new 2015 record.

A year ago the still popular iPhone 6 and 6 Plus models sales reached 10 million unit that were sold during the first weekend the gadgets went on sale. Can the company reach higher iPhone 6s pre order number or sales this year?

iPhone 6s Sales Number

The Cupertino-based company assures that its new ‘s’ models are pretty popular and consumers response to the two new versions in a positive way. In other words, pre-orders continue and more U.S. users will soon get the next generation 2015 iPhone 6s or 6s Plus in hands.

The demand is strong across the globe, Apple notes. The ‘fruit’ giant believes the 2014 record of 10 million iPhone sold on the first weekend after official release date will be beaten by iPhone 6s and 6s Plus sales that are to be official starting on September 25, 2015.

Besides Apple notes extremely high online demand for iPhone 6s Plus that exceedes the forecasts made by the ‘fruit’ firm for pre-orders [learn how to sell your old iPhone to get money on the newest model]. This could also mean that the 6s Plus model might run out of stock as soon as official sales start because we’ve heard rumors that there are problems with this device’s module production that could also cause the soon shortage.

Customers who wanted to buy iPhone 6 / 6 Plus in 2014 loved the upgrade because of its new design and bigger displays. This year the popular smartphones get a lot of new features and technologies that can also interest consumers from across the world.

iPhone 6s Plus Problems with Backlight Module Production

Apple is taking pre orders for iPhone 6s and 6s Plus. At the same time analysts report the new iPhone 6s Plus problems that could affect the supply for September and October. The Cupertino-based giant should release the two new smartphone models on September 25, 2015.

The iPhone 6s Plus production issue is believed to happen to backlight module. This could lead to limited amounts of this particular version this month. Such an opinion was voiced by famous expert Ming-Chi Kuo from KGI Securities company.

iPhone 6s Plus backlight module is produced by Minebea from Japan. Apple will absolutely find a way how to fix the issue however it might take time and thus supply problems could exist at the beginning of iPhone ‘s’ lineup sales.

Will there be short supply of iPhone 6s Plus? Apple doesn’t comment on the issue so we’ll have to wait for September 25 and see how quickly the company will run out of the new handset. It is possible to pre order iPhone 6s and 6s Plus from Apple now and get it shipped later on.

The well-known ‘fruit’ giant could order more backlight modules from Radiant supplier and get more smartphones in time for the public launch.

You’ll still notice that the shipping date for your iPhone 6s Plus is slipping to 2-3 weeks. Is it high demand? Some customers think it is the popularity of the 2015 models – but according to Kuo, the reason is supply issues Apple experiences with Minebea company.

Are you planning to purchase the new iOS 9 iPhone 6s Plus or 6s model this year? There were rumors about lower sales of the ‘s’ lineup this year but Apple keeps saying that the demand is high and the company could even bean the opening 2014 weekend record of 10 million units iPhone 6 Plus / 6 sold with iPhone 6s Plus / iPhone 6s sales in 2015.

iPhone 6s 16GB Price or Apple’s Biggest Mistake Ever

While a number of customers is searching for iPhone 6s 16GB price in India, U.S. and other countries, other potential consumers think that Apple is making a strategic mistake by releasing this particular smartphone model in 2015 [here are some tips for selling old iPhone 6 and 6 Plus before getting the most recent iPhone 6s / 6s Plus versions].

You’ll be able to purchase iPhone 6s 16GB gold, space gray, silver and pink gold version in the end of September. Still analysts, consumers and experts don’t understand why the famous Cupertino-based giant is bringing this particular model to the market. Both iPhone 6s and 6s Plus will be offered in three storage space capacity: 16GB, 64GB and 128GB.

iPhone 6s 16GB Gold Price

Surely, iPhone 6s 16GB price will be lower compared to the 64GB / 128GB versions but the new gadgets will get quicker WiFi connections, improved cameras that make 4K video shooting possible, 3D Touch technology and other interesting features that require much space.

It’s a big disappointment to millions of users to see iPhone 6s 16GB model as it is impossible to add extra storage space to Apple phones like it happens with other smartphones. You can surely store some of your files on iCloud however it might not be the most comfortable solution.

Before Apple unveiled its 9th generation phones on September 9, 2015 there were rumors that the company would drop the 16GB version and offer 32GB model instead. Nope, this never happened and you’ll see the lowest storage space [basic phone] in the market this year.

If you are still planning to buy iPhone 6s 16GB in India or other country, you might definitely want to get the locked model at the lowest price possible [$199 or around it] and order affordable factory SIM unlock for iOS 9 iPhone 6s from your network. This will be way cheaper than paying up to $650 for the unlocked version.

Apple might offer more storage space the next year if iPhone 6s 16GB sales are too low. Those of you who want to use Live Photos option or record 4k videos should not purchase the base model. You’ll need the 64GB or even 128GB iPhone since the 1-minute 4K video takes nearly 400MB of space.

iPhone 6 Unlock iOS 9 Update False Alert

Other U.S. carriers haven’t voiced their iPhone 6s deals and discounts yet. Apple already promised to offer installment plans for the purchase of its unlocked iPhone 6S Plus and 6s models in 2015. This could be challenging for mobile networks as the monthly payments for the SIM unlocked models are not that high compared to what U.S. mobile operators are usually charging.
