Beijing - September 11th, this morning, Apple held a press conference in China for the first time, announcing its new iPhone 5s and entry-level iPhone 5c. However, the so-called press conference just played the video of the Apple's event in the U.S., without any other further information. It is said the senior officials of China Telecom, China Mobile and China Unicom didn't attend the press conference either. These three telecommunication companies are Chinese major mobile telecommunication providers, and all of them have collaborated with Apple before.
