V-am spus aseara ca Apple are pregatit un numar impresionand de terminale iPhone 5S si iPhone 5C pentru lansarea ce va avea loc in parteneriat cu cel mai mare operator de telefonie mobila de pe glob, China Mobile. Intr-un interviu acordat unui numar mare de publicatii de pe glob, Tim Cook a afirmat ca este extrem de optimist in legatura cu aceasta noua colaborare inceputa cu cei de la China Mobile, el afirmand ca ambele companii abia incep sa “se cunoasca” si ca pentru viitor ne putem astepta la o colaborare si mai stransa.
Speaking in a small media briefing to Chinese media and The Wall Street Journal, Apple Chief Executive Tim Cook said he is “incredibly optimistic” about the outcome of the cooperation with the Chinese carrier. “We’ve gotten to know each other….today is a beginning, and I think there are lots more things our companies can do together in the future,” Mr. Cook said. Mr. Cook said Apple wants to reach as many Chinese consumers as possible by offering iPhones through China Mobile, and added that the country has more than half a million people writing apps for the U.S. company’s iOS operating system. “Apple has always been about making the best products, not the most products, so that’s always our North Star and that’s not going to change ever,” said Mr. Cook.
Tim Cook afirma ca peste jumatate de milion de dezvoltatori de aplicatii pentru App Store vin din China, iar numarul este impresionant, deoarece Apple are deja o baza solida pentru utilizatorii locali. Acesti utilizatori par a fi precomandat cateva milioane de iPhone-uri prin China Mobile, conform presedintelui consiliului de administratie al companiei, insa ramane de vazut cate vor fi achiziionate in final. Practic Apple are oportunitatea de a vinde un numar important de iPhone-uri prin reteaua acestui operator, ramane doar de vazut daca va reusi sa ofere terminalele la preturi indeajuns de bune pentru a atrage utilizatorii.
