Shanghai prosecutors have brought a case against the couple for human trafficking after they illegally put their third child up for adoption through online postings and accepted money for the baby, the Liberation Daily reported.
Investigators found that the mother, whose full name was not given, used the money to buy an iPhone, high-end sports shoes and other products online, it said.
Apple's products are wildly popular in China, where a teenager sold his kidney and used the funds to buy an iPhone and iPad in an incident widely reported last year.
But the couple told police that they wanted the girl to have a better upbringing than they could afford, since they already had two children.
"Giving away the child was not for obtaining benefits, but giving the child better guarantees," one said.
