and the frantic search for the latest iPhone has begun again over the Korean Peninsula, as it is again neglected onto latter countries to be released – although more of a small rag-tag gang spree than a grand exodus for Apple fan-base have shrunk incredibly over the past two years -_-

ofcourse many coming back home or business trip from the States can purchase full-price a T-Mobile contract-FREE modell, but many are now opting from the nearest country with substantial Apple-care : Japan . although Japan had been passed on previous models because carriers did not sell SIM-Free models or were incompatible with South Korea, now situation has changed :

  1. Japanese Yen currency has fallen AND is falling still, gulp
  2. Offical Apple Stores in Japan are selling SIM-Free models yeppee ~
  3. although this is can only be confirmed when the time comes : model numbers seem to be exactly the same between the two countries – opening-up the critical factor whether it can count for warranty, meaning Japanese models can be repaired in South Korea ? – as answers from Apple Korea seem to be contraditory so far -_-
