Like Aircel , Airtel India has also announced on it’s Facebook page about it’s plans to launch the Apple iPhone 4S in India soon.

But then for those of you who have been waiting for the iPhone 4S to launch in India, good news ! We are not sure if Apple will get the pricing right though !
If you are one amongst consumers who had purchased the iPhone 4S from outside India and were facing issues getting it to work here , good news for you.

The issue was strange as I had another iPhone 4S which was working perfectly fine with all the SIM cards. Continue reading “The mysterious story of the Apple iPhone 4S not working in India”
