Apple announced yesterday that the iPhone 4 would finally arrive in China beginning on Saturday, September 25th.

iPhone 4 will be sold in China through Apple's retail stores for a suggested retail price of CNY4,999 for the 16GB model and CNY5,999 for 32GB model without a contract. At China Unicom stores, iPhone 4 will be available for qualified buyers with a new two year contract, sold separately. For pricing and tariff information please visit www.10010.com.


MICGadget has an unboxing of the Chinese model of the iPhone 4 which does contain Wi-Fi. The iPhone was only recently allowed to ship with Wi-Fi in China due to regulations.

So anybody that wants to buy one, has to be approved by the government? How does the process go in China?

Google for that one.

Believe it or not, but the USA is not the centre of the world; many countries have many regulations on many different things.
