iPhone Air sold out in China within minutes of its launch
Business Standard
|October 18, 2025
Apple’s iPhone Air sold out within minutes of its launch in China on Friday, not with standing the current tariff war between Washington and Beijing.
-
The new iPhone instant sale also underscores its popularity among Chinese consumers despite competition from Android devices.
The strong sales followed Apple CEO Tim Cook's visit this week to promote the product in the world’s largest smartphone market amid ongoing geopolitical tensions between China and the US.
Cook is the chairman of an advisory body at China’s Tsinghua University’s management school.
During his visit, he also met Chinese Vice-Premier He Lifeng, who heads China’s trade delegation, which is currently holding trade talks with the US to resolve tariffs on Chinese exports.
Pre-sales for the iPhone Air, which supports only e-SIM, began at 9 am local time on Friday, more than a month later than most of the world.

There is no question that artificial intelligence (AI) is changing the global economy at unprecedented speed. But will it rescue rich countries from intensifying debt pressures, particularly as rapidly aging populations increase pressure on benefit programmes? If so, could these countries safely run even larger deficits, effectively borrowing against ultra-rich future generations? No one should bet the farm on it.
