The Iphone 6S - Thomas

iPhone 6S launch

Apple is planning to earn 9 million dollars on the releasing day of the IPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus, analysts predict sales from 7 million to 15 million dollars for the opening weekend. The IPhone 5S and 5C in comparison made 9 million dollars in the opening weekend, which was in September. Walter Piecyk of BTIG predicts that apple will sell more than 10 Million IPhones and he says "We suspect that first weekend sales have more to do with Apple’s ability to ramp manufacturing than it does the end market demand" which means that the more apple produces the more money they will make because people will buy almost all iPhone 6. Since apple customers have such a high request of their new product the developing countries, where the iPhone is build, earn more money because they are mass producing the new product which is then also directly sold. The worker and the factory earn more money and also the government therefore the country can invest more money in developing the countries infrastructure. The workers can afford to pay for school for their children and in future they are able to get a skilled job which will help the country even more. The new iPhone 6 has a lot to do with globalization and change. Apple has released two new phones which attract and targets even more people, Apple usually just come out with one new product but this time they changed it and this is why they made such a huge profit in 24 h. Not everything is good about the new iPhone because the iPhone is made in poorer countries where the workers or employees are paid a really low budget snd have to work in cruel conditions, i know i said that the workers earn more money now but this only counts when a new product is released because there is s higher public demand. Is it ethically right to let the workers work in horrible conditions? On one side it is but on the other side it is not because how else would these people earn money for their families.
There is a high competition between apple and samsung because both companies have developed a new product and are also selling it on the same day. Apple's new phone is one of the most developed on the market which also rises a competition in technology. Apple has innovated a new product which they have worked on for years, they have increased the size of the display and also made it 55% faster and more efficient than the current iPhone 5S. They are offering 2 phones which have different sizes and they are both targeted to 2 different kind of people; the ones who like it compact and easy and the others who like it big and who like a clear over view. Apple did this to target as many people as possible so they can maximize their income and attract even more people. Apple has changed the display, touch and changed the buttons around to take a risk and try something new and obviously it has worked because they have achieved their income goal in 24 h.
