AAPL has very little chance of having any success in India.
Too little too late.
India is Xiaomi's to Lose ... End of Story !
The BIGGER problem for AAPL is that Xiaomi will SOON expand out from India (& elsewhere), & into the U.S. market !
They are the single BIGGEST threat to AAPL, & the threat is real !
Look for their mid-tier phones powered by the Snapdragon 710 (e.g., SE, 8X).
Xiaomi has been in discussions with the cellular service providers here in the States, in which customers will be offered a FREE 710-based phone as a 2nd phone, that piggybacks on the same phone number a customer uses for their iPhone.
iPhone users would simply get a 2nd phone, a Xiaomi 710 whatever, to complement their iPhone.
Xiaomi & Verizon are working on the Details ... have NO clue about the timing to the public.
