Only 20% of iPhone users have upgraded to an iPhone 6 or 6 Plus


The iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus have become Apple’s fastest-selling smartphones to date, but if you expect that momentum to slow down anytime soon, think again. Only 20% of active iPhone users have upgraded to one of the new devices so far, leaving plenty of room for more growth.
Apple CEO Tim Cook revealed this stat during the company’s quarterly earnings call on Monday evening when one analyst questioned whether the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus still had room to grow ahead of the launch of next-generation devices this fall.
Cook also noted that the new iPhones were bringing a higher rate of switchers over to Apple devices than the company had seen in previous quarters, which suggests that the bigger Retina HD displays are finally attracting users on Android and other platforms.
If switchers continue to adopt the iPhone at a steady rate, and a good percentage of existing iPhone users upgrade to the latest devices, there’s still plenty of growth left in the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus yet.
In total, Apple sold 61 million iPhones during the second fiscal quarter, which resulted in a record $13.6 billion in profit over the three-month period. In emerging markets, where the iPhone hasn’t traditionally done all that well, sales were up 63% over the same quarter last year.
