Double Standard by Apple in China
iPhone in China only have 15 days replacement/refund period, vs. 30 days in US/CANADA.
iPhone in China have 1 year warrentee, same as US/CA. BUT, the problem is in US, warrantee means a full body replacement, whereas in China you actually have to PAY for the parts...
i.e. warrantee in China means "I'll help you fix it but I'll charge you", where as if you exceed the warrantee period, you CANT even pay Apple to get it fixed.
So 90% of people who have screen broken (for example), actually go to a third party to fix.
Also, replace front screen in Apple store cost 1300 Yuan (~$200 USD), where as third party is 200 Yuan (~40 USD). BTW, its all Gorilla glass.
The whole point is the company have two sets of policies, one for other countries and one for China.
Biting the hand that feeds IT
