The sleek phone, which went on sale Friday, is also a music and video player and it allows owners to store photos and access the Internet. It costs $500 for the basic version or $600 for one with twice the memory.
The cost for phone service is at least $59 a month.
From New York City to California, eager buyers lined up early before retail stores selling the much-anticipated device opened their doors at 6 p.m.
Apple also introduced AppleTV. The converter box allows uses to send movies, television shows, music and photos to their television sets wirelessly from a computer.
