BEIJING, Sept 28 (Reuters) - China Unicom (0762.HK), the country's No. 2 mobile carrier, said on Monday Apple's APPL.O popular iPhone would be sold in China from October at a retail price of 5,000 yuan ($732.5).

Eight service packages will be available for iPhones ranging from 126 yuan to 886 yuan per month, the company said in a statement.
