Apple is looking to have one hell of a good quarter to announce during its next earning call. As the Cupertino company is about to launch the iPhone 4S in 22 countries, including China, next Friday, January 13th. Once this rollout is achieved, the iPhone 4S will be available in 90 countries total. Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO, said that “the release of the iPhone 4S has been the companies fastest release of an iPhone yet.” That could be due to the fact that many of the same parts as the iPhone 4 have been reused and didn’t require Apple to build a whole new phone. It will be interesting to see if the next iPhone can follow the same release schedule and speed.

Countries launching the iPhone 4S on January 13th: Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Bolivia, Botswana, British Virgin Islands, Cameroon, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, China, Dominica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Grenada, Guam, Guinea Conakry, Ivory Coast, Jamaica, Kenya, Madagascar, Mali, Mauritius, Niger, Senegal,
St. Vincent and The Grenadines, Trinidad and Tobago, Turks and Caicos and Uganda.
