Apple Hadirkan iPhone 5 di Indonesia Pada 14 Desember

Hari ini, Apple mengumumkan bahwa mereka akan memboyong iPhone 5 ke lebih banyak negara di penghujung tahun ini. Setelah sebelumnya membawa iPhone 5 ke 45 negara, Apple akan membawanya ke 50 n lainnya di bulan Desember 2012 antara lain Korea Selatan dan Brazil. Di antara nama-nama 50 negara yang menjadi tujuan iPhone 5 selanjutnya, Indonesia termasuk ke dalam daftar tersebut.

Kabar ini memang sangat mengejutkan karena selama ini, Indonesia selalu dianaktirikan oleh Apple dalam hal peluncuran iPhone 5. Tak bisa dipungkiri, penjualan iPhone 5 di Indonesia memang tak seheboh di negara tetangga, Singapura, yang termasuk negara yang mendapatkan iPhone 5 untuk pertama kalinya di Asia Tenggara. Dengan hadirnya iPhone 5 di Indonesia bersama-sama Malaysia, Kuwait dan Russia, Apple mulai memperhitungkan negara kita sebagai negara pengguna iPhone. Berikut siaran pers dari Apple dikutip dari Business Wire:
