10m iPhones sold in first weekend

Apple says it has sold more than 10m iPhones in the first weekend after its new models went on sale on Friday, underscoring strong demand for phones with larger displays.

Chief executive Tim Cook said the company could have sold even more if supplies had been available.

Analysts had estimated first-weekend sales of up to 10m iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus models, based on record first-day pre-orders.
