IPhone sales in China sink due to coronavirus
Sales would have fallen 60% in February 2020, compared to last year. A notable drop for the American brand.
Fall in sales
This fall means that Apple has sold 500, 000 fewer units of its phones in this second month of the year in China. The sales of the American brand have not been the only ones that have suffered, because as it has been known, Android phones have suffered the same fate in the country. In his case, sales have plunged by 56% in February.
This is not a surprise, considering how the situation has been in China. The country has been practically on hold all month, with many factories closed and shops closed. So it was to be expected that sales would sink in all segments.
China believes that the worst of the coronavirus epidemic has passed. For this reason, we see how the stores open again and the factories resume their activity. So these months we should be able to see how iPhone sales in China are increasing again, returning to a normal level.
