Apple iPhone selling like hotcakes on T-Mobile, half a million in less than a month

T-Mobile has been the only one of the four biggest U.S. carriers to not have the Apple iPhone, but this changed recently with the unveiling of T-Mobile’s UNcarrier initiative. Now that T-Mobile has finally gotten the iPhone, it is selling like hotcakes.

In just around three weeks since it became available, T-Mobile already sold half a million iPhones. Given the fact that T-Mobile is the smallest of the big four US carriers and the fact that the iPhone only launched on April 12, that’s a pretty impressive number.

We have heard T-Mobile blame the lack of iPhone for bleeding customers in previous financial recaps so this will definitely help. Moreover, getting the iPhone on the carrier is quite a deal right now as it costs much less compared to other carriers that tie you into a two-year agreement.
