Saptamana aceasta ne-a adus o multitudine de zvonuri legate de lansarea terminalului iPhone 5 si cei de la eBay sustin ca aceasta activitate a generat o crestere in numarul de iPhone-uri puse la vanzare. Ei spun ca in ultimele zile peste 100.000 de anunturi noi au fost publicate, cu 70% mai multe decat in mod normal, cresterea fiind atribuita anunturilor privind terminale iPhone. Desi nu stim numarul exact de anunturi de vanzare publicate, majoritatea implica iPhone-uri si vorbim despre terminale iPhone 4/4S care sunt puse in vanzare inaintea datei de 12 septembrie cand iPhone 5 urmeaza sa fie prezentat. Facand o comparatie cu anul trecut cand intre 4 si 6 octombrie 375.000 de anunturi de vanzare a iPhone-urilor au aparut pe website, se pare ca lumea incepe incet sa se pregateasca de lansare anoului dispozitiv.
According to the online sales site, submissions to its trade-in program increased 70 percent in the past three days, when compared with the same period the week before. The company says that during that span “nearly” 100,000 smartphones were offered up for trade-in by people using the company’s Instant Sale program. Among the Apple phones that people offered to trade-in, eBay says the 16GB model of the iPhone 4S tops the list, followed by the 8GB iPhone 4 and 32GB iPhone 4S. How does this compare with when an Apple device is actually announced? According to statistics from last year, eBay got 375,000 trade-in offers for smartphones from October 4 to 6 — the 4th being the day the iPhone 4S was announced. Of that bunch, 89 percent of the devices were iPhones.
Este normal ca oamenii sa inceapa sa isi vanda vechile dispozitive cu putin timp inaintea lansarii altuia nou, insa avand in vedere ca o luna si jumatate de zile ne desparte de prezentarea iPhone 5 si cateva zeci de mii de anunturi de vanzare au aparut doar pe eBay, atunci ne putem astepta ca numarul acestora sa ajunga pana la cateva sute de mii numai pe marile website-uri de licitatii din SUA.
