Apple Pushing iPhone 4 to 17 More Countries Friday

By Geoff Duncan July 26, 2010

Apple has announced it is launching the iPhone 4 in seventeen additional international markets on Friday, July 30, substantially expanding the device’s worldwide availability and, no doubt, adding further to Apple’s already substantial cash coffers.

Countries picking up the iPhone 4 this week will be Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, Norway, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. These include some major markets for Apple, although the company did not include any local pricing or availability information, save to note the iPhone 4 will be available at Apple’s retail and online stores as well as through authorized resellers.

Apple just launched its iPad tablet device in nine additional countries on July 23.

A few days ago, I bravely admitted to my colleagues that I rely on an Android tablet for my daily work. “Nadeem, has anyone told you about PCs,” one of my editors replied. “Good god, man, who hurt you?” remarked another senior editor. They’re not wrong, while I remain as shameless as ever in my experimental preference for work machines.

Your next iPhone may have no bezels. Here’s why that could be a problem

Don’t believe everything you see, but there’s a certain joy in imagining products with a futuristic touch to them. One such fantastical element of the smartphone industry is a truly bezel-free all-screen phone. And as implausible as that sounds, it looks like Apple might be the one to achieve it — and at the biggest scale imaginable.

According to South Korean outlet The Elec, Apple has reportedly asked, “Samsung Display and LG Display to develop an OLED that removes all front bezels from the iPhone.” Apple has been painfully slow at eliminating the bezel on iPhones and continues to sell the iPhone SE (2022), which should ideally exist in an era that is half a decade too persistent.
