Apple is experiencing a resurgence in China, as evidenced by the recent high demand for the iPhone 17. One e-commerce store in China has reported over 5 million reservations for the new model, suggesting that consumers are enthusiastic about its design changes and upgrades.

According to a tipster, this surge in popularity may pose significant challenges for other smartphone brands like Huawei and Samsung. The tipster predicts that Samsung’s Galaxy S26 launch next year will struggle in China due to the overwhelming interest in the iPhone 17.

The iPhone 17 series starts at 5,999 yuan (approximately $841), which is slightly higher than the starting price of $799 in the U.S. However, with features like a ProMotion display and increased base storage, Chinese consumers see value in these devices for 2025.

The tipster’s post on X mentions that one e-commerce platform has received over 5 million reservations for the iPhone 17 series. While this does not guarantee immediate sales figures, it indicates strong consumer interest. The actual success of the new models will be clearer after a few months.
