The past generations of iPhones are almost in short supply in the market, but starting from the iPhone 13 series, the situation seems to have undergone some subtle changes.
According to news on December 8, according to Nikkei Asia, several sources said that the production of new iPhones and iPads was temporarily suspended in October, and there was no production capacity in those days. Apple suppliers such as Foxconn and Pegatron Of workers have almost nothing to do. If the news is true, then this is the first discontinuation of the iPhone in more than a decade.
It is reported that in September and October this year, the production target of the iPhone 13 series was 20% worse than expected. Apple was forced to reduce the total production target of the iPhone 13 series from 95 million units to 83 million to 85 million units.
A supply chain manager said: “Due to limited parts and chips, it makes no sense to work overtime during the holidays and pay extra wages for front-line workers.” “This has never happened before. China’s Golden Holidays in the past 11th. It is always the busiest time when all assemblers are preparing for production.”
There are many reasons for the temporary suspension of production of the new iPhone. In addition to the shortage of parts and chips mentioned above, there are also China’s power adjustment measures. Prior to this, there were indeed several power cuts in the country, which had a certain impact on the production of Apple suppliers.
However, Apple is already putting pressure on suppliers to accelerate production of the iPhone 13 series in December and January next year.
