China in recent weeks has widened curbs on the use of iPhones by state employees, telling staff in at least three ministries and government bodies to stop using their Apple mobile phones at work, Reuters reported on Thursday, following earlier reports by the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg.
Apple's shares have slipped amid the reports amid fears of tit-for-tat action as Sino-U.S. tension rise. Shares of the company were down about 3% in midday trade on Thursday.
Apple and China's State Council Information Office, which handles media queries on behalf of the government, have not responded to requests for comment on the reported ban.
