Alleged iPhone 5S spotted with China Compulsary Certifie markings


There’s been a lot of talk recently about ’s upcoming iPhone plans for China. The company is expected to unveil two new handsets next week,the 5Sand the5C, and rumor has it that it just inked a dl with thecountry’s largest carrier.So as you can imagine, that makes this next iPhone 5S shell rather interesting. Because while we’ve alrdy seen a of photos and s of the handset’s rr casing, this particular one has China Compulsory Certifie markings…CCC marks, much like our FCC marks, arecompulsory safety marks for products imported to and sold in China. They indie a device has undergone testing to ensure that it’s safe to use, and won’t interfere with government and emercy systems.But back to the , which was posted byCtechCN.com(via9to5Mac) this weekend. The CCC marks on the shell of this alleged iPhone 5S suggest that not only is the handset hding for China, but it may arrive much sooner than we anticipated.You see, according to Wikipedia, it usually takes between 4 and 8 months to get certified byTheChina Quality Certifiion Centre. So if has alrdy gone through that process, then perhaps it’s nring an approval to sell the 5S in the country.And a sooner-than-later iPhone launch in China wouldn’t be surprising.Don’t forget, China Telecom hasall but confirmedit’s going to be carrying the handset on day 1 this yr,as Tim Cook and company begin to rlize the importance of the market.That’s evidenced by a few things. For one, Cook himself has made a of tripsto the country in recent yrs, and frequently mentions it on rnings calls. But more recently, sent out invitesto a special Beijing event set for September 11.What’s it going to introduce here that it felt wouldn’t fit in itsSeptember 10 event? Some think it has something to do with China Mobile, others say the iPhone 5C. I say I wouldn’t be surprised if it talked about both. Get rdy China, ’s coming.
