1 Million Android-based G1’s Sold

Abril 23rd, 2009

According to FierceWireless, T-Mobile USA has sold more than 1 million of its Android-based G1 devices during the past six months.

The figure was apparently “buried” in Deutsche Telekom’s earnings report. According to the German carrier’s report, the G1 accounts for two-thirds of all of T-Mobile USA’s 3G handset sales so far.

Initial sales of the G1 are certainly a lot smaller in comparison to Apple’s iPhone. Apple sold around 3.7 million iPhones during the two full quarters after the device’s launch in the summer of 2007. Keep in mind, however, that T-Mobile USA has less than half the number of subscribers than AT&T so on a relative basis, it’s doing OK.

Yesterday, Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL) reported selling 3.8 million iPhones during the past three months, generating $1.5 billion in revenues. That brings total iPhones sold to over 21 million units and combined iPhone and iPod touch sales of about 37 million units.

Apple’s COO Tim Cook had some bold comments in the analyst call, calling the 37 million units an “enormous platform for developers,” adding that with the recent changes introduced with Apple’s iPhone 3.0 SDK, which went beta in March and is expected to be released to customers this summer, Apple and its development partners will soon “unleash a whole new level of innovation that keeps Apple years ahead of everyone else.”
