China Unicom (Hong Kong) Ltd. (CHU) plans to start selling an 8-gigabyte version of Apple Inc.'s (AAPL) iPhone 3GS with Wi-Fi capability next week, a person at China Unicom familiar with the situation said Thursday.

The iPhones that Unicom has offered in China so far have come with Wi-Fi removed to comply with previous government regulations, but the missing function has made the phones less attractive to buyers.
