In April 2017, 728 million iPhones were in use worldwide. China is the country where people used the most iPhones, followed by Apple’s home market the United States – at that time, 228 million iPhones were in use in China and 120 million in the U.S.
iPhone in the United States
Although more iPhones are in use in China than in the U.S., Apple has a greater presence in their home country more than anywhere else in the world. iPhone sales in the United States amounted to 22.4 million units in the fourth quarter of 2017. In 2018, 45.1 percent of U.S. smartphone users used an iPhone. As of March 2019, iPhone’s installed base in the United States reached 193 million. According to a new Statista survey, when asked about how they feel about Apple on a gut level, 67 percent U.S. consumers reported positive feelings. Although international sales have overtaken U.S. sales to become Apple’s major revenue stream, the home ground remains immensely significant for the company.
