Apple Widening The Horizon By Launching The iPhone 5 In 50 New Countries On December

Since the iPhone 5 launched on September 21st, Apple has opened the iPhone 5 to 47 countries which include major iPhone markets like the US, Australia, Hong Kong, Japan and many more. The folks over at Cupertino launched the device in late Q3 so a piece of the sales will be in the Q3 results. But that is not what they are aiming at, they are aiming for Q4 sales because it is the time of the holiday season. Analysts are also predicting that Apple is going to sell about 50 million iPhones in Q4 and more than half of that are iPhone 5s. To increase sales Apple today has released an official press release regarding the opening of the iPhone 5 into 50 more countries in December. See the press release below to see the full 50 countries which will be getting the iPhone 5 this holiday season.
