Star Analyst Guo Ming Chi
Influential analyst Guo Ming Ku announced that it was bad news for Apple fans. The mass production of the iPhone 12 series has been delayed, especially the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max. The iPhone 12 should be released in September, but the number should be less.
Apple is expected to launch four new iPhone 12 models in September 2020. However, due to the distortion of the innovation planning stage-many Apple engineers have to work in their home offices-mass production is shifting, according to Ming Ming, a well-known analyst.
iPhone 12 Pro Max: very complicated
Accordingly, the two expected 6.1-inch models and compact 5.4-inch models will begin mass production this fall. The top model, which may be called the iPhone 12 Pro Max, has a 6.7-inch OLED screen and should not reach mass production by October. The analyst gave the reason for the "complex" design.
Now, Apple is likely to show all new iPhones in 2020 in the joint keynote in September, but the new products will be offset in retail. In the past, Apple has performed similar procedures many times, for example, when the iPhone 8 / iPhone X was released. Due to the delay caused by the spread of the Corona virus, a limited number of devices may appear at the start of sales. Experience shows that this may take several months.
The star analyst quoted another statement from the American magazine "9to5Mac" which was shocking. Therefore, the 5G model of iPhone 12 that supports mmWave technology should be further postponed. However, according to today's rumors, all upcoming iPhone 12 variants will support 5G radio [millimeter wave and below 6GHZ].
IPhone 12 [Pro] for Christmas: What about AirPods?
The analyst ’s statement casts doubt on whether Apple and its partners and suppliers will be able to sell a sufficient number of all versions of the iPhone 12 before Christmas, despite the global pandemic. Last year, after launching AirPods Pro, the situation was similar-during Christmas, some potential customers returned empty-handed. Considering Guo Ming Chi's assessment, we currently believe that the following situations are conceivable
- All iPhone 12 variants will be introduced in a joint keynote speech in September
- iPhone 12 Pro Max will be available in October
- Then, whether the equipment is sold out before Christmas depends on the demand, of course, how many models the manufacturer can produce by then
According to a recent report, Apple has begun to accumulate components of the new iPhone 12. The same was true of the iPhone SE 2 launched a few days ago, and the process also showed that manufacturers anticipate difficulties with their availability. We have clearly summarized everything you should know about the iPhone 12 generation in the linked article.
