iPhone 4s Released In Another 21 Countries With Very High Prices
There is a good news for the iPhone fans that Apple has made its brand new iPhone 4S available in another 21 countries across the globe. The members of the MacRumors team have worked a lot in order to find out the territories and now have come to know the names of those countries, where this new iPhone 4S has been launched.
List of Countries
The name of the 21 new countries where this iPhone has been released are: Bahrain, Brazil, Chile, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Kuwait, Malaysia, Morocco, Peru, the Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, Tunisia, Turkey, United Arab Emirates, and Vietnam.
Huge Demand In Brazil
Among all of these countries Brazil is the only one where the consumers are really waiting for it and are ready to stump up most cash and that is why huge import tax has been placed on the devices like smartphones.
iPhone 4s Price In Brazil
Pricing for the iPhone 4S through Apple’s Brazilian online store starts at the equivalent of $1410 for the 16 GB model and moves up to $1628 for the 32 GB model and $1845 for the 64 GB model.
Price Very High In Brazil As Compared To USA
When we compare these prices with that of the United States then the results is shocking as they are paying – $649 for 16GB, $749 for 32GB and $849 for the 64GB unit – and you can clearly see the difference and injustice with the Brazilian citizens. If we notice a more on it then it is visible from the prices that the Brazilians are paying double of what Americans are paying and it seems that the build of Apple`s inventory there will reduce the cost to a great limit.
The official partner of Apple in Russia, MTC, is also not doing well with them as they are selling this smartphone in the range of $1131 to $1350.
The reason of such high prices in the above mentioned countries has been described above, especially in Brazil, where Apple has taken an action by deciding to build a manufacturing factory for the consumers. So if you want to have the iPhone 4S with you then you should be ready to pay high cost for it because of such high import tax rate.
Contrary to this everyone was saying that iPhone 4S is quite more expensive in United States.
