Pre-orders for iPhone 13 outpace iPhone 12 in China

Beijing: Customers in China have placed more than 2 million pre-orders for Apple’s iPhone 13 lineup, surpassing the number of iPhone 12 pre-orders in 2020, the media reported.

According to AppleInsider, it is likely because of the void left by high-end Huawei handsets.

Chinese customers have already placed more than 2 million pre-orders on retailer JD.com alone as of Thursday, citing the South China Morning Post, the report said.
