Apple’s iPhone 4S hasn’t even gone on sale yet; it will be available from tomorrow, the 14th of October, and it is expected to be Apple’s most popular iPhone yet. Apple announced the other day that more than 1 million people had pre-ordered the iPhone 4S in the first 24 hours, setting a new record for the company.
Now, according to a recent report, due to the huge demand for the new iPhone 4S, Apple has already placed more orders for the iPhone 4S from one of its suppliers. They have apparently ordered another 5 million iPhone 4S handsets, on top of the 10 million that had already been ordered. This additional order underscores the massive anticipation and excitement surrounding the iPhone 4S, which features significant upgrades over its predecessor, the iPhone 4.
Global Availability and Anticipated Sell-Out
The iPhone 4S will go on sale in the US, Europe, and other countries around the world. Apple’s online shipping times for the device have already been pushed back to 1-2 weeks, indicating the high demand. This delay in shipping times is a clear sign that the initial stock may not be sufficient to meet the overwhelming demand.
We suspect that the iPhone 4S may sell out quickly when it goes on sale tomorrow. We have spoken to a number of mobile retailers here in the UK, and many are expecting to sell out pretty quickly. Retailers are preparing for long lines and a rush of customers eager to get their hands on the new device. The iPhone 4S is not just a minor upgrade; it includes significant improvements such as a faster A5 chip, an 8-megapixel camera, and the introduction of Siri, Apple’s voice-activated assistant.
Technological Advancements and Consumer Expectations
The iPhone 4S introduces several technological advancements that have captured the interest of consumers. The A5 chip, which is the same processor used in the iPad 2, promises to deliver faster performance and better graphics. This makes the iPhone 4S not only more efficient but also more capable of handling demanding applications and games.
Another major upgrade is the camera. The iPhone 4S features an 8-megapixel camera with advanced optics, allowing for better low-light performance and sharper images. This improvement is significant for users who rely on their smartphones for photography and videography.
Perhaps the most talked-about feature of the iPhone 4S is Siri, the intelligent voice assistant. Siri can perform a variety of tasks, such as sending messages, setting reminders, and providing weather updates, all through voice commands. This feature has generated a lot of buzz and is expected to be a major selling point for the device.
