After 1 month of iPhone 17 releaseand all its variants, today we are going to see which were the models that lasted the shortest time in stock, either because Apple believed that they were not going to sell so quickly, or basically because the public devastated them.
There are some that surprise us, however, what is clear is that they were all sold out, and if you wanted your iPhone on launch day, unless you were attentive to the pre-sale days before, it was very difficult to get it, since the reservations ended with everyone, to the point that if today you have a problem with your iPhone, and they have to replace it, it may take several days.
Which iPhone sold the most in 2025?
To verify this data, we will look at the hours that the different iPhone Pro, Pro Max, and 17 models were in stock, from pre-sale and release, although as we said, this does not offer us real data, since we do not know if Apple had the same number of devices for all colors, or they simply made an estimate of which ones were going to sell the most, and the quantities were different, which could mean a variation in this data.
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Cosmic Orange • 512 GB → ≈ 0.3 h in stock
- iPhone 17 — Black • 256 GB → ≈ 1.0 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Silver • 256 GB → ≈ 1.3 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Silver • 512 GB → ≈ 1.5 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Intense Blue • 512 GB → ≈ 1.6 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Cosmic Orange • 256 GB → ≈ 1.7 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro Max — Silver • 1 TB → ≈ 1.8 h in stock
- iPhone 17 — Lavender • 256 GB → ≈ 2.1 h in stock
- iPhone 17 Pro — Silver • 256 GB → ≈ 2.3 h in stock
- iPhone 17 — Sage Green • 256 GB → ≈ 2.4 h in stock
As we can see, the most popular, as it could not be otherwise, was the iPhone 17 Pro Max in Cosmic Orangealthough it catches our attention that the 512 GB one ran out so soon, which leads us to think what we were saying, and that is that the stock of that one was less than the 256 GB one, since always, the one with the smallest capacity, and, therefore, the cheapest, is the first to be finished.
Within the higher capacity models, we also see the iPhone 17 Pro Max 1TB Silvercurious, since if the orange is finished first in other capacities, that is in this other color, it is strange.
If we talk about 256 GB, that is, the best sellers, black would win, the most classic and elegant, followed by lavender and green (which lasted two and a half hours in stock, enough for everyone who wanted one to be able to purchase it). However, this does not speak of all websites, since Spanish operators such as Vodafone destroyed the green in minutes, leaving black as the only alternative for a few days and in stock, which leads us to think that all these figures must be taken with a grain of salt.
And you, have you bought an iPhone 17? Leave us in the comments which model you chose, and what your favorite color is, as well as if you were able to get it, or if you ended up opting for another one because they didn't fit.
