Last time we reported that talks between China Mobile and Apple have failed over the iPhone. However a report released by Market research firm In-Stat says that there are 400,000 unlocked iPhones users in China in using China Mobile network.
“The figure surprised us as it is fourfold of that we estimated before. We have never doubted that the iPhone will achieve greater success than iPod in China if Apple teams with China Mobile to launch its Chinese version,” said the firm in the report.
Further In-Stat says that there is a difference between US and China mobile phone users. US customers use their smartphone for business utilities, while, the Chinese users use their phones for entertainment purposes such as internet surfing, e-books and music. And as iPhone is multimedia targeted device, it definitely meets the demands of Chinese users.
Reportedly iPhone costs 4,000 Yuan Renminbi (around Rs. 22,190) in China.
Also with this revelation, the mystery of the missing 3.7 millions iPhones is solved here. Apparently, all those missing iPhones were exported to the world’s biggest sized country.
