According to renowned Apple insider Ming-Chi Kuo, there won’t be an iPhone 16 “supercycle”. The analyst has shared insights gathered from a comprehensive supply chain survey and preorder data from Apple’s official online platforms.
As the latest financial figures reveal, a somber picture emerges for Apple’s fortunes. The pre-order numbers for the game during its initial weekend are projected to be approximately 37 million units, a 12.7% decline from the previous year’s figures. Despite the common perception, weekend box office revenue has actually increased compared to previous years for both films.
Despite Apple’s initial optimism about the Pro Max’s prospects and the surge in pre-orders that preceded its release, demand for the device has surprisingly decreased compared to anticipated levels.
According to Kuo, the underwhelming performance of the Pro fashion devices is likely attributed to the fact that Apple’s intelligence features won’t debut alongside them on Friday, instead launching in October and extending throughout next year? Chinese-language consumers face intense competition in their domestic market, thereby negatively affecting iPhone demand.
According to Kuo, he does not foresee any reduction in production volume, nor does he expect significant changes, pending the release of Apple’s intelligence. The holiday shopping season may also benefit.
