iPhone 4S有望春節前登陸內地
????自從上月iPhone 4S登陸香港市場以來,有關其何時進入中國內地這一全球最大的手機市場的報道就一直不絕于耳。 ????11月份的消息是iPhone 4S將于12月份在中國內地上市。12月6日,媒體報道稱蘋果公司(Apple)已拿到中國工信部(the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology)的入網許可證,離獲得最終批準僅剩一步之遙。(點擊這里) ????現在,據中國官方報紙《人民日報》(the People's Daily)報道,12月21日,一款型號與iPhone 4S (A1431)相同的手機已通過中國內地的3C強制認證(China Compulsory Certification),掃清了上市銷售的最后一道障礙。 ????這給了蘋果公司足夠的時間趕在春節前完成零售渠道的鋪貨工作。春節是中國內地一年之中最大的購物季,今年春節是1月23日。 ????據《中國日報》報道,沈陽、深圳的部分商家已開始接受iPhone 4S的預定。 ????大中華地區(根據蘋果公司的定義,包括香港,中國內地和臺灣)是蘋果公司增長最快的市場。2010年以來,蘋果在這個地區的銷售額增長了270%,其中很大程度上要歸功于中國日益壯大的中產階層對iPhone手機源源不斷的需求。 |
????Reports that the iPhone 4S was headed for mainland China -- the world's largest mobile phone market -- have been dribbling in ever since the device arrived in Hong Kong last month. ????The news in November was that it would arrive on the mainland in December. On Dec. 6 Apple (AAPL) was reported to have been granted a network access permit by China's Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the second-to-last step toward final approval. (see here) ????Now the People's Daily, the official news organ of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, reports that a device with the same model number as the iPhone 4S (A1431) passed the final hurdle, obtaining its China Compulsory Certification on Dec. 21. ????That gives Apple plenty of time to get the iPhone in the hands of retailers before the Chinese New Year, the biggest shopping event on China's calendar. It falls this year on Jan. 23. ????According to the People's Daily report, some distributors of Shenyang and Shenzhen have started to receive bookings. ????Greater China -- which Apple 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. |
