Due — never forget anything, ever again.
Eric Slivka, reporting for MacRumors on AT&T’s quarterly numbers:
Consequently, AT&T’s 4.3 million iPhone activations likely corresponds to approximately 75% of its total smartphone sales of 5.5 million units for the quarter.
Even more impressively, the continued trend toward smartphone adoption means that the iPhone is representing a growing proportion of total phone sales (smartphone and non-smartphone) at AT&T. The carrier notes that smartphones represented more than 78% of its total phone sales to postpaid customers, meaning that the iPhone accounted for roughly 60% of AT&T’s total phone sales to those customers during the quarter.
The iPhone accounted for a majority not just of AT&T smartphones sold, but all phones.
