Apple today finally confirmed when its first smartwatch is finally
going to be sold through stores. The company has struggled to keep up
with demand reportedly due to low production yields
and that might be one of the reasons why the smartwatch has not yet
been sold in Apple Stores across the globe. Though Apple has finally
confirmed today when that’s going to happen, and it has also announced
that the Apple Watch will be released in seven more countries later this
month.
Customers in
Singapore, Mexico, Italy, Spain, South Korea, Taiwan and Switzerland
will be able to purchase the Apple Watch starting Friday, June 26th.
Pricing will vary per market.
Apple’s senior vice president of operations Jeff Williams said
that the response to the smartwatch has “surpassed our expectations in
every way,” and that the company is thrilled to bring it to more
customers around the world.
Williams also revealed that the
company is making “great” progress with the backlog of orders, adding
that all orders placed through last month with the exception of the
Apple Watch 42 mm Space Black Stainless Steel with Space Black Link
Bracelet will be shipped to customers within two weeks.
The Apple Watch
is currently available in the U.S., UK, Australia, China, Canada,
Germany, France, Hong Kong and Japan. All three collections will be
launched in the aforementioned countries on June 26th.
