The iPhone 4s is the best selling phone on Sprint, AT&T, and Verizon for the month of October even though it was released midway through the month. The aging iPhone 4 is also among the three top selling phones for each carrier.

Apple’s latest and greatest iPhone is the best-selling phone on AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint in the month of October. To add an exclamation mark to that last statement the iPhone 4S was released on October 14, so it out sold everyone else in half the given time.

After selling 4 million phones in the first weekend it was expected that the iPhone 4S would produce some very impressive numbers. Something that might not have been expected is the fact the over a year old iPhone 4 is in the top three selling phones for each carrier. Sadly we aren’t able to see which phone(s) bested the iPhone 4 and on which networks.

With the Droid RAZR coming out on November 11 it will be very interesting to see if it will be able to unseat the iPhone on Verizon’s network. There does not seem to be any real contenders coming out in November for Sprint so it seems as though the iPhone is safe on that network. AT&T will be releasing the HTC Vivid and Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket on November 6, but with so few LTE areas it is very unlikely that they will have overwhelming sales.

It seems as though Apple is in a fantastic place sales wise leading into the holiday season. While we fully expect the iPhone 4S to remain the top selling phone for the foreseeable future, we are curious how long the iPhone 4 can compete.

  3. Brent D. Job at 1:20am 5th November 2011 To me both phones are good iPhone have one of response on a phone but the way there do things like protect and tech support isn't the best Android is also good it gives you more options when it comes to a phone with iPhone you have to jail break it to get the full benefits out of the phone but Android the response of the older ones wasn't the best battery life was a big problem with the Android so it a give and take between those to phone right now the fact that the Android is 4G compatible kind of put it on top even with out it the iPhone 4s is running on only at 15.5 mbps while the new android is running at 25.5 mbps which is not the 4g network
