Phone Air暂缓国内发售，面临什么监管难题？

Group 1 - Apple has delayed the release of the iPhone Air in China, stating that all models will be released after obtaining regulatory approval, while other models like iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max will start pre-orders at 8 PM Beijing time [1] - The iPhone Air is marketed as Apple's "thinnest" model and has eliminated the physical SIM card slot in favor of eSIM technology to create more internal space [1] - The delay may be related to China's strict real-name registration and anti-fraud regulations [1] Group 2 - Following Apple's announcement, the three major telecom operators in China have launched eSIM services, with China Unicom being the first to support eSIM activation in physical stores [2] - China Mobile and China Telecom have also announced their readiness to offer eSIM services to users, marking a significant shift in the domestic telecom landscape [2] - The slow adoption of eSIM in China has been attributed to regulatory challenges and the potential for fraud, as eSIM allows multiple numbers on a single card, complicating the enforcement of strict real-name policies [2] Group 3 - Apple has made local adaptations for eSIM in China, requiring users to activate eSIM in person at China Unicom stores, thus eliminating remote activation options [3] - Only the domestic version of the iPhone Air will support eSIM, and users will not be able to activate overseas carrier services until they leave China [3] - New regulations from China Unicom include prohibiting cross-border activation and requiring precise geographic verification to ensure compliance with local regulations [3]
