News from BGR indicated that iPhone 4S outsold iPhone 5. UBS analyst Steve Milunovich wrote, "Some of our Chinese sources do not expect the iPhone 5 to do as well as the iPhone 4S". However, Apple has announced that the first weekend sales of the iPhone 5 have hit two million units in China. "Customer response to iPhone 5 in China has been incredible, setting a new record with the best first weekend sales ever in China", said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, "China is a very important market for us and customers there cannot wait to get their hands on Apple products". The iPhone 5 went on sale in China on December 14th. Apple previously announced that the iPhone 5 would go on sale in 100 countries by the end of the year. News from BGR.com and 9to5mac.com
