To give you some extra details - I live in downtown Shanghai, as of writing, several months after IPhone X's release, I have not even seen the IPhone X yet as not any single one of my families, friends or colleagues has switched to that.
- ksec 9y agoThat is why i wasn't very optimistic in iPhone X China figures. I dont see them around in China much as well. And the craze was no where near my expectation, and nothing compared to iPhone 6. But the sales figure was very different when announced. You are not the only one with this observation as well. Most of my friends and colleagues in different area of China had the same observation as well. I wonder why.
- quickben 9y agoSo where did they go? 8% is a lot.
