Like all its predecessors, iPhone 4S also met with warm welcome all over the globe, but South Korea is still not impressed. According to The Korea Times, Korean smartphone users are not very enthusiastic about the phone and are skipping on the phone on account of its lack of features. Apparently, Apple's ongoing battery life problem is not helping the matter either. iPhone 4S also does not support 4G, which is also deterring many users from buying this phone.
Unlike other places, South Korea has not welcome the phone in a big way and it has been reported that the company has pre-sold only 150,000 to 300,000 units of the phone. Apple is collaborating with Korea Telecom and SK Telecom for the launch of the phone in South Korea.
The news also claims that the new phone lacks the wow factor and the only new feature worth considering is Siri. However, even this feature on its own is not enough to induce people to buy iPhone 4S. This is leading many Koreans to give cold shoulder to iPhone 4S and to go for other 4G enabled phones. Other complain is about the lack of support for Korean language on the phone. We hope that iPhone 4S is not feeling very hurt as it has already set the record for being the fastest selling smartphone in the history.
