Apple acknowledged a few days ago that iPhone sales in China were weaker than expected, as the company had to lower its guidance for the first quarter of fiscal year 2019. The new iPhones are still too expensive for the world’s largest market, a new report says, and some retailers have already started discounting several iPhone models, including the iPhone XR and iPhone XS that were launched only a few months ago.
Local retailer Suning cut the price for the 128GB iPhone XR from 6,999 yuan ($1,036) to 5,799 yuan ($858), according to CNBC, which represents a discount of 1,200 yuan ($178).
