I upsets me to see that Apple has announced iPhone 6 launches in China and India (two of the most populated countries on earth) in the next few days when here in North America Apple launched its iPhone 6 three weeks ago and yet there is still almost zero supply of the phones in their own stores. They also knew that there was a terrible shortage of the plus models a long time in advance and yet they let potential buyers of the plus model to line up in long long lines on launch day without informing them that they were wasting their time until they had been there for hours. Apple is either falsely promising supply to the customers in the new countries on launch day or they are holding back the supply here to have one there. I like Apple products (when they are in supply), but I think that these marketing practices are very uncool.

nothing is ever slowing Apple down. They are shipping over millions worldwide and takes time to get it to different sides of the world because of the time it takes to make. Their marketing strategies other than getting it across worldwide is also doing perfect even if android continues to hold the most shares (which changes nothing) but still, Apple always do what they can to bring it quicker. In fact what if I told you other companies did it to good or bad in some ways?

Apple launched here in North America three weeks ago. If you look at the reserve in store availability supplies for all their stores here you will see the word "unavailable" in almost every single slot of every single store for every variety of the phone. Apple launched without supply and they are about to do the exact same thing to customers in China and India and they know it yet they will repeat the long lines of hopefuls there without telling them.
