TAIPEI: With the launch of Apple's eagerly anticipated iPhone 6 finally on the horizon for Chinese fans, the US company's supply chain is geared up and ready to deal with any surge in demand from the world's largest smartphone market.
The iPhone 6 and 6 Plus are slated for an Oct 17 release on all three of China's wireless carriers, Apple said on Tuesday. The company fixed the date after addressing software security concerns raised by regulators, which delayed the launch in China beyond the Sept 19 of several other countries.
