China has effectively cleared the iPhone 6 for sale in the country, granting the product a license, but not before a government regulator demanded Apple make some security changes in the iOS operating system to fix suspected flaws in the software.
China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) recently granted the iPhone 6 a network access license, the government regulator said in an online posting on Tuesday, following weeks of speculation about the delay in the approval.
The government’s online database referred to network access licenses being granted to four Apple phones on Tuesday, which may also probably include the company’s large screen smartphone, the iPhone 6 Plus.
