Apple's iPhone 11 launch fails to impress Asian markets

11 September 2019
The extra camera alone doesn't cut it. Also, the lack of a 5G option doesn't help to entice premium buyers.

Apple is overpriced and their is no getting around that one. The iPhone 11 has a low resolution LCD display, and to top it off it's not AMOLED, so it doesn't support HDR. It still comes with a slow charger (5w) in the box. There is Android smartphones cheaper than the iPhone 11, that have have higher resolution AMOLED displays that support HDR. Quick charger in the box, more ram, and more storage.

    Apple is sinking in China, period. Just like Apple has already died in India.

        I am generally anti apple on almost all things due to their anti consumer policies ,but the amount of hate I see here is ridiculous.

        The 11 series is a step in the right direction compared to the 10 series. More cameras, slightly better battery and the same or slightly reduced price.

        Agreed that they are still way overpriced when compared to the competition, but at least they are looking to improve.

            Well when comes to impression the Redmi 8 note pro is impressive phone for 1/4 of apple price.
            Apple have nothing impressive just the price not worth the specs its offer.
            Just for example even the cheapest of the new apples cost 800 bucks but have only lightning connector and 5V charger in the box even it supports much faster charging.

              I know that comes in to discussion the fact that 5G ins't nowhere near to be mainstream but for f* sake, you're Apple, a trillion dollar company and the iPhone 11 is your flagship product, you DON'T cut cost. Where's the innovation? Where's the top of the line specifications? No 5G, no 120Hz display, no on-screen fingerprint reader or under screen front face cameras, no 1TB storage, no 4000 or 5000 mAh battery.
              This phone alone is a 1st April late joke.

                " IDC analyst Navkendar Singh says that local buyers care more about owning an Apple product than owning the latest model Apple"

                This quote is true on many aspect

                    I need to add something here...

                    The reason many moves from Apple to Huawei is because Huawei offer better Camera. So, it's not really about the price. Apple can price their device for $1500 and still sell IF they device were the best.

                      DLLM, 12 Sep 2019For someone from uk for 30 years, your English hurts my eye... morethere is nothing wrong with english, i actually work for insurance company and write settlements for marine claims within HK, the fact it that your blinded by the temple of apple and you have not mention one luxury attribute associated with apple products, as well as they don't use expensive or rare alloys or even machine milled aluminium (which is more expensive) or sapphire glass for their main glass front or back, thus, there just regular mass market productions, so you can not class them are LV of phones unlike the brands which i have highlighted as luxury phones such as porsche design (by huawei) and lamborghini which do use sapphire glass as well as machine milled aluminium.

                              Got nothing against Apple Iphone however the 11... OH NO!!! Please discontinue this ancient look and consider adding 5g. Why are you guys degrading??? Oh I have a good name for the iphone 11 (Iphone vintage).

                                DLLM, 12 Sep 2019For someone from uk for 30 years, your English hurts my eye... moreIMO the iPhone 11 design is tacky. The camera setup is inspired from Huawei Mate 20 but the cameras located unbalanced in the module and the lenses looks quite eyesore.

                                    There are a lot of different links and numbers. Which one is closer to reality I don't know but it's a fact that apple is most successful in wireless earphone market at the moment.
                                    And based on price and quality it is surprising.

                                      DLLM, 12 Sep 2019Sorry, looks is a subjective matter. I prefer looks on 200$... moreSome technology can't copy although design can copy here and there, but Eye tracking no one come close to Sony.
