"Apple will hold another event in Beijing today. The Cupertino, California-based company is close to securing a deal with China Mobile and is preparing to ship iPhones to the carrier, a person with knowledge of the matter said last week.
Calls to the press office of China Mobile in Beijing and spokesman Zhang Xuan’s mobile phone before normal business hours weren’t answered. Zhang and Hong Kong-based China Mobile spokeswoman Rainie Lei didn’t immediately respond to e-mailed requests for comment.
China is one of Apple’s largest markets, generating about $25 billion in the past four quarters, yet sales there fell 14 percent last quarter. A low-cost handset will help the company boost sales in rural areas, where more than 650 million people live, according to government data.
Apple Strategy
China Mobile’s 745 million wireless subscribers accounted for 63 percent of the nation’s users as of the end of July, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. China Unicom trailed with 266 million subscribers, while China Telecom had 177 million.
China Unicom began offering the iPhone in November 2009, and China Telecom followed in March 2012.
Making the iPhone available through China Mobile will be critical for Apple’s campaign to regain market share, said Jan Dawson, chief telecommunications analyst with the New York office of London-based researcher Ovum. Samsung Electronics Co. (005930) is the top smartphone seller in China, followed by Lenovo, researcher Canalys said.
“It’s key for Apple to be able to find ways to drive growth at a higher rate again,” Dawson said in an e-mail before the announcement. “Getting China’s biggest carrier on board and launching a cheaper version of the iPhone are both key to doing that.”
