Apple products are huge in Brazil, and last week was a big week for Apple there. The company released the Brazilian iTunes, launched the Apple TV, and began selling the iPhone 4S. Plus, for months, there have been rumors that Apple is producing iPhones in São Paulo.
Though the iPhone is selling for much higher prices than in the U.S., it’s still a hit. So why do people want it so badly? Reporters in Brasília and São Paulo asked customers who came for the launch. Everyone was excited about Siri–except for the fact that Siri isn’t available in Portuguese yet.
Clearly, there was a lot of hype in Brazil about the iPhone 4S launch. But for such a high price, is it worth it? Macworld Brazil and two Brazilians in Boston discussed the differences between the 4 and the 4S, and whether the 4S is really worth buying.
