????兩家關注中國市場的新聞博客表示,，中國（世界第一大手機市場）第二大運營商中國聯(lián)通（China Unicom）已通過政府審批，將于本月開始發(fā)售iPhone 4S,。（新聞鏈接見此,，鏈接1、鏈接2）,。 ????不過,，一位未透露姓名的中國聯(lián)通“內(nèi)部人士”向新浪科技（Sina Tech）透露，該審批針對的是iPhone 4,，與iPhone 4S并沒有關系,。（鏈接見此） ????大中華區(qū)——包括香港、中國大陸和臺灣是蘋果（Apple）增長最快的市場,。自2010年以來,，這個地區(qū)得銷售額增幅已達270%。這在很大程度上得益于中國不斷壯大的中產(chǎn)階級,，他們對iPhone的需求似乎不可遏制,。 ????上個月，蘋果開始在香港預售iPhone 4S,，不過所有產(chǎn)品在10分鐘內(nèi)被一掃而空（鏈接見此）,。一周后，iPhone 4S開始正式銷售,，為了維持排隊秩序,，甚至出動了防暴警察,。無數(shù)黃牛將iPhone 4S掃蕩一空，然后轉(zhuǎn)手在內(nèi)地市場高價出售,。 ????譯者：項航 |
????China Unicom (CHU), the second largest carrier in the world's largest mobile phone market, received a government permit this week to begin selling the iPhone 4S on mainland China this month, according to two Chinese-based news outlets (see here and here). ????However a third source, citing a report by unnamed China Unicom "insiders" to Sina Tech, says the permit issued was for the iPhone 4, not the 4S. See here. ????Greater China -- which Apple (AAPL) defines as Hong Kong, mainland China and Taiwan -- is the company's fastest-growing market, with sales up 270% since 2010, thanks in large part to the seemingly unquenchable appetite for iPhones among China's growing middle class. ????When Apple began taking pre-orders the iPhone 4S in Hong Kong last month, they sold out in 10 minutes (see here). A week later, when the phone went on sale, riot police had to be called in to control the line-cutters and scalpers snapping up iPhones for re-sale at steep mark-ups on the mainland. |
