From this photography we can find that the best sale is Q1 OF 2015. Actually this statistic shows Apple iPhone sales worldwide from the third quarter of 2007 to the company's more recent financial quarter. In the second quarter of 2011, 18.65 million iPhones were sold worldwide. In the 2011 fiscal year, Apple sold 72 million iPhones.

The first generation of Apple’s iPhone was introduced in 2007, bringing new and innovative features, such as a multi-touch interface, to a broader audience. Since its market introduction, Apple has released a new generation of iPhones each year. The models that followed the first generation are the iPhone 3G (July 2008), the iPhone 3GS (June 2009), the iPhone 4 (June 2010), the iPhone 4S (October 2011), the iPhone 5 (September 2012), the iPhone 5C / 5S (September 2013) and the iPhone 6 (September 2014). All iPhone models run Apple’s own mobile operating system iOS.

We also find that in this chart the trend of sale is increasing year after year. Obviously Apple has become the leading role in the field of 3C products worldwide. By means of unique system and excellent designing it has appealed so many fans throughout the world. Especially in China, it has become a fashion to own an iPhone. For the young people, owning an iPhone sometimes means a status symbol.

Sales of the iPhone have risen strongly over the years, from around 1.4 million iPhones sold in 2007 to almost 170 million units worldwide in 2014. In total, Apple has sold more than 590 million new iPhones from 2007 to 2014. In 2013, Apple has held a market share of 15.3 percent of new smartphone sales worldwide. However, the latest data shows the sale of iPhone has declined in the past several months. To some degree, it gives us a hint that the market of smart phone is more and more competitive.

That whether the top one for Apple around the world can hold up or not relies on the creativity. Since other phone brand is chasing after Apple tightly, Apple has to be devoted more time and energy to prove its own brand-value to people around the world.
