Apple Inc. sold about 525,000 iPhones at Apple and AT&T Inc. stores in the first weekend since its June 29 launch, the Los Angeles Times reported, citing an analyst.
The iPhone, which combines a phone, web browser and a music player, went on sale on Friday. About two per cent of buyers have experienced delays in activating their service, a source said.
iPhone won a strong endorsement from a key technology reviewer when the Wall Street Journal's Walter Mossberg called it a beautiful, breakthrough device. "Our verdict is that, despite some flaws and feature omissions, the iPhone is, on balance, a beautiful and breakthrough handheld computer," he said in a review on WSJ.com.
Mr Mossberg, the journal's chief technology columnist for more than 15 years, is widely regarded as the most influential judge of new gadgets, software and services, and his pronouncements can strongly affect how a product is received.
