The iPhone 17 lineup outsold the iPhone 16 models by 14% during the first 10 days of availability in the United States and China, according to new sell-through data from Counterpoint Research.
Counterpoint said the figures represent the earliest measurable signal of demand for the new generation in Apple's two most commercially important markets.
The firm said the overall uplift is being led by stronger upgrades to the standard iPhone 17, particularly in China, and by higher uptake of the iPhone 17 Pro Max among U.S. carrier customers on enhanced subsidy plans.
In China, Counterpoint said sell-through of the $799 base iPhone 17 nearly doubled compared to the iPhone 16 during the equivalent initial window.
