They tend to like to launch it first in all the developed countries before launching elsewhere.

Did they say buy at your own risk

Yeah, taking the risk how much you take care of it, how much damage can be applied in days like the first guy who bought it and dropped it, and how waterproofing it is.

Hey Apple, instead of launching in more countries, why not provide product to those where you launched I am in Australia and still waiting for new iPhone on the countries largest carrier!

Launching doesn't mean you get the phone immediately
