Do you see the Chinese in the video clip above? Some of them have quite interesting opinions about the new iPhone 4 model officially launched today by Apple worldwide. Some of the Chinese who expect in the queues in front of Apple stores in China were asked why they chose to buy the white version of the iPhone 4. Some of them had quite surprising answers because they think that the white version of the iPhone 4 makes them look younger, more attractive for women.
"New things are always fashionable." said 19-year-old high school student Chen Zhi. "I think girls always like products that are white in color."
Berry Li, a 22-year-old of indeterminate profession, agrees: "White is brighter. The color makes you feel young."
I tend to think that those boys who were sitting in line there were in the mood for jokes and I refuse to believe that they were serious. It has been discussed in the past about the "social status" that an iDevice "offers" you, but I find it hard to believe that abroad the white version of the iPhone 4 is considered to be a phone that is only good for hanging out.
