This isn’t the first time we’re hearing about a new R&D center in Japan. Previous reports have indicated that Apple was building a new R&D center for 2016 or 2017.
Cook met with Japan’s prime minister Shinzo Abe to discuss all things Apple and Japan. Later at a press conference, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga reported that Apple would complete its R&D center in December.
Just rode JRE's Yamanote line with Apple Pay. Can't wait for our customers in Japan to start using it later this month. pic.twitter.com/mMcK3iIaS4
