Dear Chinese consumers:致尊敬的中國(guó)消費(fèi)者：

Over the past two weeks we have been receiving lot of feedback about Apple’s repair and warranty policy in China. We have thought deeply about those points of view and together with the relevant government departments carefully studied our “Three Guarantees” policy. We have also reviewed how we communicate about our maintenance policy and checked our management of our Apple authorized service providers. We are aware that a lack of communication during this process has led to the perception that Apple is arrogant and doesn’t care or attach enough importance to consumer feedback. We express our sincere apologies for any concerns or misunderstandings this gave consumers.在過去的兩周里，我們收到了許多關(guān)于Apple在中國(guó)維修和保修政策的反饋。我們不僅對(duì)這些意見進(jìn)行了深刻的反思，與相關(guān)部門一起仔細(xì)研究了 “三包” 規(guī)定，還審視了我們維修政策的溝通方式，并梳理了我們對(duì)Apple授權(quán)服務(wù)提供商的管理規(guī)范。我們意識(shí)到，由于在此過程中對(duì)外溝通不足而導(dǎo)致外界認(rèn)為Apple態(tài)度傲慢，不在意或不重視消費(fèi)者的反饋。對(duì)于由此給消費(fèi)者帶來的任何顧慮或誤會(huì)，我們表示誠摯的歉意。
