Just three days after launching, Apple has set a new record for the number of iPhones sold, despite both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus being only available in 10 countries thus far.

Apple CEO Tim Cook said: "Sales for the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus exceeded our expectations for the launch weekend and we couldn't be happier.

"We would like to thank all our customers for making this our best launch ever, shattering all previous sell-through records by a large margin."

But being the wonderful English guy he is, he helps out with content across a number of Future sites, including What Hi-Fi?. It wouldn't be his first exposure to the world of all things hi-fi and home cinema, as his first role in technology journalism was with What Hi-Fi? in the UK. Clearly he pined to return after making the move to Australia and the team have welcomed him back with arms wide open.
