Just a few days back we had heard and praised Apple for deciding to sell their latest iPhone 4S in China, but just before the device was going to be launched Apple decided that the doors to the Apple stores will remain shut and the sales of iPhone 4S in all the Apple sotres in China will be stopped temporarily.
The main reason for this is, huge crowd gathered outside the Apple stores for buying this new device, they were worried about the products being tampered with and also for the safety concerns of employees and customers. The sales of iPhone 4S has been stopped in Beijing Apple store and three other stores in Shanghai. Though it is available in various unofficial retailers and outlets and is also available online.
This decision was not welcomed by iPhone fans gathered outside these stores as there has been news about the stores being pelted with eggs, and shouts outside the stores because all these people have been waiting for the doors to open from quite some time. Apple has also said that the sales has been stopped temporarily and will resume pretty soon. So all the people in China should be patient and wait for it’s launch in the official Apple stores.
