Apple may produce fewer iPhone 14 units, new report says

Apple will soon release the highly anticipated iPhone 14 series in September and it is said to garner more demand. Even so, the tech giant is expected to produce fewer iPhone 14 models than expected, according to the latest report. Here's why.

A recent report by DigiTimes suggests that Apple may cut iPhone 14 production units by 10%. Earlier, the company was expected to produce 90 million units. Mass production for the iPhone 14 series has already begun. Although earlier it was anticipated that there would be a delay.

TSMC is said to be the cause. It has been revealed that the whole problem started when TSMC had to adjust orders for three of its major clients, including Apple. AMD and Nvidia have also been hurt by the current semiconductor situation and mining boom.

However, the report also said that while Apple may cut units of the iPhone 14 series, "orders should be in line with TSMC's expectations." TSMC is also confident that its situation will improve this year and in the next 5 to 10 years.

It remains to be seen how this semiconductor situation will affect the general audience and whether there will be any impact on sales. For those who don't know, the iPhone 14 series is expected to see higher demand, especially compared to the iPhone 13 series in the Chinese market. This information is known from Apple's popular analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. We have to look at the whole demand-supply situation.

As for the iPhone 14 series, it remains in the news and is expected to come with significant improvements. The new iPhone models could come with major camera improvements including a 48MP camera, larger battery, support for two chipset variants (A15 and A16 bionic chipset) and more. We can expect them to see a major design overhaul in the form of a hole+peel display instead of a notch display among others.

The iPhone 14 series is expected to arrive in September and that's when we'll be able to get an accurate idea of ​​the 2022 iPhones.
