Apple stopped selling in Russia and closed some functions. Will you continue to use it or switch to domestic substitution?

1. Suspend the sale of Apple products in Russia. In a word, we won't sell them!

2. Restrict Apple's payment function, that is, we are familiar with Apple Pay

3. Two Russian-Russian news apps have been deleted from areas outside Russia, which means that these two apps are only used by domestic users.

4. Turn off the function of real-time traffic events in Ukraine on Apple Maps, which means that Apple Maps doesn't update the traffic situation in Ukraine in real time, which is equivalent to an offline version. You can fight with each other, but I won't interfere. You can't use my channel until the map is updated, and you will definitely not be a helper.

I've also thought about it, why not close the real-time traffic update in Russia and Mauritius, so that both sides can be fair and equal. But look at Apple's supplement and you will understand: after all, it is fighting in Ukraine, and the strength of Ukraine is obviously lower, so it is a safety precaution for Ukrainian citizens (of course, everyone understands their rhetoric).

Why did Apple stop selling in Russia and shut down some functions?

It is obviously illogical to say that Apple is a purely commercial company, which has nothing to do with zheng governance. So many American companies have not jumped out, and why Apple is the first.

However, the reason why Apple stopped selling in such a hurry was for the benefit. The reason is very simple. The ruble has plummeted. If it doesn't stop selling, according to the previous exchange rate pricing, the apple will lose all its shorts, so in order to ensure that it won't lose money, it will definitely choose not to sell.

I'll make a simple conversion, and everyone will understand why Apple is in such a hurry to stop selling, because if it doesn't stop selling, Huaqiang North may have to purchase goods in the past, and the price is really delicious:

Take the iPhone13 as an example, the selling price in Russia is 79,99 rubles, which is only 62 US dollars, and then it is 4,297 yuan, if you think about it, the iPhone 13 is 59997 yuan. Therefore, once the exchange rate falls, the ruble will be worthless, and it will definitely not be sold at the original price, which is very common in the foreign trade industry.

Let's take a look at the iPhone13Pro. At that time, the selling price was 99,99 rubles, which was 85 dollars at today's exchange rate, which was only 5,371 yuan. This price can't even buy the iPhone13, but you can buy the iPhone13Pro. You know that the domestic price is 7,999 yuan, and the difference is 2,63 yuan. Even if Cook is stupid, he knows that this business can't be done. The more he sells, the more he will lose money.

As for closing Apple Pay, it will also have an impact on the exchange rate, otherwise Apple will have to pay its own money. As a company that will make money, it is definitely not allowed to exist. Of course, this is not the first time Apple has done this. Last year, due to the economic turmoil, Apple also temporarily stopped selling in Turkey.

But again, most of Apple's measures are based on its own economic interests, but I don't believe it if there are no other factors.

will you continue to use it or switch to domestic substitution?

In fact, the use of products that have been bought in Russia is not affected, but this incident has given us a wake-up call, that is, it is easy to be strangled without the right to speak.

But my advice is very simple. At present, you can use whatever you buy in your mobile phone, computer or car, and use it with peace of mind. After all, it is not easy to make money by yourself. If you buy it, you can't smash it yourself. In the past two years, the income has also been sluggish, which is not a burden. However, when buying products in the future, if you can buy domestic products as much as possible, you should use domestic products. If there is a gap between domestic products and foreign products, there is nothing you can do. You can only buy them if you bite the bullet. Who calls yourself inferior to others?

to be honest, domestic mobile phones are already very powerful, and supporting domestic mobile phones can only be encouraged, not across the board. To put it mildly, at present, domestic mobile phones can't completely leave the chips and systems of the rice country. When we can make 1% independent production one day, it's not too late to cut across the board.

Finally, this incident gave us a wake-up call. The so-called technology has no borders is a joke. It is true that we will be beaten if we lag behind. We should work hard and cut through difficulties. My point of view is still very simple. It is only a temporary move to boycott foreigners' products. If we want to solve the problem fundamentally, our products must be excellent!

Never buy an Apple mobile phone. I will control you when I say control. I always buy Huawei mobile phones.

I don't use apples at all, not before, not now and never will. Domestic mobile phones are not bad either, but they are the same.

Apple and Tesla had better not use them. Anyway, I don't need them. You never know the background manipulation of electronic products.

I have always made them in China.
