The iPhone 5 goes on sale in the States September 21st. Anyone heard or read about when it is coming to Korea? I'd assume it might be a while. I have been hanging on to my iPhone3 for too long in anticipation for the 5.
Please post links to Korean blogs/sites of news of the release.
Please keep this thread to iPhone 5 release comments only. Please don't clutter this forum with "just by a galaxy 3" or "iphone sucks" etc...

Looks like possibly September 28th. 1 week after the US.

Re: Anyone know when the iPhone 5 is coming to Korea?
korea times says late october/november due to the differences in frequency......mumbo jumbo.
usually doesn't take that long so hopefully it will be sooner than the korea times' estimate.

Why don't you just buy a Galaxy 3?
Re: Anyone know when the iPhone 5 is coming to Korea?
it came to Korea the 11th November. Just under one month after USA release.
The delay is because KCC (korean fcc) is slow to certify it for sale in Korea. That's why Apple Korea, KT and SK cant give an estimate. The ball is not in their court. It's in KCC's court. I'm jelly of u bra! I wan't it too!

I noticed that prior to the iPhone 5 release that SK was listed as a carrier that offered unlocked 4S iphones to customers on contract. Now they are listed as locked and Olleh says unlocked. Anyone know anything about this none-sense?
I'm currently with SK and want to upgrade to an iPhone 5 but not if it's factory locked because then when I'm travelling I won't be able to pop in prepaid Sims.
