Namrata Singh, 37, and her friend Rohit Das, 40, are both on holiday from India. Singh, a domestic pilot based in New Delhi, came to the Apple Sydney store to try her luck in the queue (after dropping her last phone in the toilet). Compared to India, Singh said Apple’s Australian launch was quite a spectacle.
“I haven’t seen people queue up for Apple in India at all,” she said. “So I’m quite surprised to see these queues… it’s fairly fascinating.”
