However underwhelmed the initial response to its launch may have seemed, the iPhone 4S just broke Apple’s sales records. The company’s latest smartphone, which was unveiled last week, sold over 1 million units in its first 24 hours of being available to pre-order.

To put things in perspective, when the iPhone 4 launched last year, it set a record for Apple by racking up 600,000 pre-orders in a single day. Even though it’s not the dramatically overhauled iPhone 5 many were hoping for, Apple’s latest gadget has smashed the company’s previous single day sales record by more than 66 percent. In terms of first day pre-orders, the iPhone 4S is the most successful product Apple has ever released.

I’ll probably get one.

While I’m still on the fence on getting one for myself (my iPhone 4 is over a year old and works just fine), I pre-ordered my mom one since she is long overdue for a new iPhone.
