The 128GB Gold version of the iPhone 6 is still the most requested SKU of Apple’s smartphone this year, according to Globe representatives during the official launch at midnight last night.
Globe is also expecting to complete its shipment of more than 100,000 units of the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus by the end of the year as demand for Apple’s smartphone continue to grow.
Close to 200 subscribers lined up last night at the Globe Tower waiting for their new iPhone 6 by midnight.
Globe’s order of more than 100,000 iPhones is led by huge demand for the 128GB Gold model, majority of which were already reserved by Platinum subscribers who are eligible to get them for free on recontracting (Globe has about 40,000 Platinum subscribers). The second most in-demand model is the 64GB Space Gray.
About 10,000 people signed up for the pre-order of the iPhone 6 on Globe’s website.
The numbers we got is just in line with last year’s numbers as reported to the NTC.
Globe imported 95,580 iPhones consisting of 58,680 iPhone 5s and 36,900 iPhone 5c by December 31, 2013 last year while Smart shipped 56,430 units consisting of 35,520 iPhone 5s and 20,910 of the iPhone 5c.
Ang hirap ng kumuha sa SMART :(
dati naman hindi nangyayari ang ganito, nung nauso lang iphone at smartphone wars tsaka naging issue yung mga may pambili at wala. Haha. nung panahon ni nokia , kapag may nseries ka na para ka nang nakaiphone. manakawan ka lang ng n70 , para ka nang nalugi.
Hindi naman masama bumili, pero dapat iconsider din kung ano ang mga bagay na dapat unahin paglaanan ng pera, kasi pinaghihirapan yun at di basta basta nakukuha, hindi naman lahat pinanganak na mayaman. ang mahalaga masaya ka at wala kang kaaway.
Aaminin ko, iphone(2007) pa lang gusto ko na magkaroon. 6 na siya ngayon wala parin ako . Haha. although pwede naman bumili pero student pa lang kasi ako so unahin ko nalang yung pera para sa studies ko. :)
@ nokia 3310…. I like your set of priorities in life and don’t knock off your phone. It was the best Nokia phone release of all time. Iphone 8 is just around the corner, and by the time Iphone 12 rolls around you would have finished your schooling.
When only few can afford to buy Iphones in our country, the supply will never end. It was just amusing to see 200 people lining up to buy them when the supply is like 100K in stock.
People in the States lined up to buy Iphones but mostly they were teenagers and high school students. What’s funny is that I don’t see any teenager in the picture at Globe.
Quick question- 200 lined up, but how many actually bought the Apple device?
Pre-iPhone6, ang Samsung mukhang iPhone. Ngayon, ang iPhone ay mukha ng Samsung.
Dati pang-status symbol (nang-mayaman). Ngayon pang social climber na.
e bakit ba nagingielam kayo ha?? e gusto namin pumila eh. sa US nga pinipilahan din yan eh. inggiters lang kayo! ang ganda kaya pag naka iphone mukhang susyal. inggit na inggit nga yung ofcmates ko kase nakaiphone 6 ako eh. and take note 128 gb. duhhh??
Andaming bobong iDiot sa Pinas. Napipintasan lang ang iPhot ninyo dahil sa presyo at cheap hardware umiiyak na kayo. Mga balat sibuyas na walang utak wahaha
You are funny! Google the word sarcasm. Seriously whats with the hate with people with money? I dont judge you when you buy isda sa palengke. In fact im happy for you. Why cant you love us the way we love people with no money?
isa lang ang dahilan ng mga nag pipila dyan
at yan ay ang ipagyayabang ang iphone nila sa iba
97% ng mga nakapila dyan ganyan ang ugali
may pera sila, oo, may utak din sila, kala lang nila meron
di naman ako naiingit dahil na iintindihan ko sila
bahagi na ng buhay nila ang pagyayabang
they want to be noticed, to be praised, to be envied
they seek attention always
aminin man nila o hindi, alam nila yan
note3 binili ko at di ko pinagyayabang
eto ang choice ko dahil talagang ginagamit ko eto sa work ko.
Hi. I admit na kasama ako sa 97%. I really hope na mapansin mo ako :(. Happy ako for you and your note 3. Can you be happy for me and my iPhone 6 space gray 64gb too? Please?
ok sige na happy na rin ako sau
tsaka kung sabihin mo pa na girl ka baka gusto ko na rin mag meet tayo ng personal, mag kape tayo at magkwentuhan
pero kung guy ka … be happy na lang sa iphone mo :-)
Kapag lumabas ang Apple 7 for sure baba nanaman ang price ng Appble 6. Nabasa ko somewhere nalalabas ang Iphone 7 sa July-August 2015.
bakit parang may mas pake pa yung “apple haters” kesa sa mga apple fans pag dating sa mga ganitong articles? I find it ironic.
Hindi poor ang pinas, poor management lang.
Kahit nga sa ilalim ng tulay ang bahay,naka Cignal..sigurado they can buy premium iphone too.
Thats irony at its finest.
Hindi poor ang Pinas? Clearly, you haven’t been to Bicol, Eastern Visayas and ARMM regions.
makapunta nga, indi ako bibili, papapicture lang ako para masama sa kanila. hehe. but iphone has always been my dream phone, yet very unfortunate enough, i still don’t own one.
About 40000 lang pala ang platinum subscribers ng Globe pero hindi pa rin nila maayos ang LTE connection nila? May gana pa silang mamigay ng free internet? Unahin muna nila yung mga post paid payers bago yung mga squatter na papiso piso lang mag internet.
Brace yourselves!!!! DATA CAPS are coming.
and to say na na mraming nghhrap sa pilipinas. how ironic
But there are many poor Filipinos. That is a statistical fact. The rich are getting richer while the poor are getting poorer. It’s called INCOME INEQUALITY and its hopelessly widening.
Brace yourselves, folks! Poor people out to bash those who have the ability to buy premium products!
Stone-age mobile users… UNITE!
Premium phone my ass. Cheap TLC Nand flash ang gamit nila, 3 dollars lang yun compared sa top of the line Samsung flash storage. Yang ips glass nila? ?4 dollars lang yan, sobrang mura kesa sa gorilla glass. Hindi sila nagsapphire glass dahil liliit kita nila 1800mAh battery circa 2011. At yung body design at iOS8? Meizu Mx3 at FlymeUi ang nauna diyan. Masyado kayong nagpapauto sa Apple, lahat ng ipambabayad ninyo ay mapupunta lang sa marketing at promotion. Ganun kadami ang utu utong iDiot. rip off na ang product binibili pa rin dahil mas mataba ang wallet kesa utak.
@archie
eh alam mo naman pala kung saan mabibili yung mga parts eh!
bakit hindi mo na lang bilin isa isa tapos
then i assemble
then i durability test mo
then i package mo
then presyuhan mo without mark-up
then i market mo
edi sana ang saya nating lahat kasi naka iphone na tayong lahat sa pinas!
baka matalo mo pa binay sa 2016
hitting two birds with one stone ka don! ano pang hinihintay mo?
@project eh di ikaw gumawa ikaw nakaisip e bobong bulag na iDiot
Hindi makapag hintay? Parang ngayon lang sila magkakaroon ng phone… or talagang gusto na nila magyabang na sila una nagkaroon… kase kung ikaw yung tao na lagi naman nakakabili ng phone hindi na mag eeffort pumila @_@
Pwede rin pala tumakas sila sa work kase malapit lang sa globe building para pumila =D
Brace yourselves, iDiots are fast approaching
^ ipoor lolll!
Proud iDiot here! Got mine at a globe business center. I really hope I can send you money to make you less angry at people with money to burn. Peace!
-_-… Sad. A world overrun by consumerism. I call that getting swindled and pimp, i call that being tricked by business.
Wow proud idiot daw si E. Bobo ka nga tinawag ka na ngang idiot masaya ka pa. Ipangalandakan mo yang tsapa mo ng kabobohan mo sa starbucks ha? 200 dollars lang ang total worth ng iPhone mo mas may mahalaga pa ang isda sa palengke kesa diyan sa iPhot mo.
iNggit perhaps?
@Project e di ikaw gumawa ikaw nakaisip e bobong iDiot masyadong bulag sa apple walang utak.
Hi archie. Sorry you won’t find me at starbucks. Toby’s Estate baka may chance. Approch mo lang kung makita mo akk with iPhone 6 space gray. I will pasa load 500 to you para friends na tayo. Treat din kita ng coffee. Love love love!
Tapos ilan months lang from now madami ng magbebenta sa OLX dahil lalabas na ang iphone 6S. LELZ
AHAHAHAHA!!! LOL!!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
