Tim Cook says Apple Watch will be available internationally in April

APPLE CEO Tim cook has confirmed the Apple Watch will be released internationally in April. Will other new devices be joining?

Speaking at Apple’s flagship store in Berlin last week, Apple CEO Tim Cook reportedly told employees that the much anticipated Apple Watch will not be exclusive to the United States in April.

While 9to5Mac reports that Cook specifically said Germany for the month of April, Australia has been a tier one country in recent years, where it received products at the same time as the USA.

The last time Apple launched a product exclusively in the USA was the iPad in April 2010, and followed that with launches in Australia and Europe just over a month later.

Other than Tim Cook’s speech, other indications that Australia will be one of the first to get the Apple Watch surround the fact certain Apple retail employees have been receiving secret Apple Watch training briefings in Sydney.

Apple is marketing the Apple Watch as much as a fashion accessory as it is a piece of technology.

An event is being held next week in the USA where Apple is expected to confirm the remaining details of the Apple Watch, including the launch date and pricing.

Considering the price and launch date are the only two real details left to be announced, many are speculating that Apple could be announcing updates to other products. The Apple TV is heavily rumoured to receive a much needed software update with gaming support, while a bigger “iPad Pro” has been thought to be in the works for a while now.
