    APPLE Inc is predicting initial sales of its new iPhone models will top last year's opening-weekend record, thanks largely to demand in China.

    Pre-orders for iPhone 6s and 6s Plus were "very strong" and sales are on pace to exceed last year's launch-weekend record of 10 million handsets, Apple said on Monday. The devices, unveiled at an event in San Francisco last week, will hit stores on Sept 25.
