Winston, a medical doctor and Apple fan, expressed disappointment over Indonesia's ban on iPhone 16 sales due to local component regulations, complicating consumers’ access to new technology.
The Indonesian government imposed a ban on the iPhone 16 and Google Pixel because these tech companies failed to comply with the TKDN policy, which requires 40% local components.
Winston recalled his experience buying an iPhone in Singapore, highlighting the pricing discrepancies and issues faced when his registered device suddenly lost network connectivity.
Despite Winston's previous frustrations, he noted that his current iPhone 15 purchased through a licensed seller operates without issues, despite the problematic experiences tied to Indonesia's regulations.
