Apple last night mentioned it distributed more than 1.7million models of their fresh iPhone model within the first 3 days, which makes it essentially the most successful product launch in the company’s history.

The new iPhone 4 was launched on Thursday in the UK, the U.S., France, Germany and Japan. High demand from clients for the model triggered shortages and boisterous crowds of people at several shops.

Many stores sold out in hours. Analysts have stated Apple is having a hard time procuring sufficient parts for the mobile phone, including its fresh higher-resolution display screen.

Apple has mentioned the white iPhone it intends to make has been more difficult than predicted and won’t be accessible until late July. Just black iPhone 4 models went on sale a week ago.

Apple sold a lot more than a million units from the very first three days when it launched last year’s model, the 3GS. Canada, Italy, Spain and Switzerland were then one of several launch countries, but Japan was not.

Apart from the crisper screen, the iPhone 4 carries a slimmer body and faster processor chip compared to previous product, among other modifications.

Apple has, on the other hand, been flooded with problems from iPhone 4 consumers, who are angry the £500 mobile phone seems to lose its reception signal if they merely hold it within their hand.

Inside a statement released on Friday, Apple said: ‘Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the placement of the antennas.

‘This is a fact of life for every wireless phone. If you ever experience this on your iPhone 4, avoid gripping it in the lower left corner in a way that covers both sides of the black strip in the metal band, or simply use one of many available cases.’

Apple states that using one of its ‘bumpers’ – that cost £25 each and clip over the iPhone to shield it – stop anyone’s hand disturbing the signal.

The firm is offering the rubber bumpers on it’s website but none of them is going to be shipped to the United kingdom till July 16th. Compare iPhone 4 16GB Black Deals and iPhone 4 32GB Black Deals available in the UK at the moment.
