Apple has increased its initial order for iPhone 14 models to 95 million units from 90 million units, reports UDN. This likely indicates Apple is confident in demand for the new models, despite current economic difficulties.
According to the latest news in the industry, Apple recently notified suppliers to expand the initial total stock of the new iPhone 14 series to 95 million units, an increase of about 5% over the original expectation. The latest report from the research institute Isaiah Research predicts that among the new phones, the highest-end iPhone 14 Pro Max will have the most stock in stock.
Notably, the site says Hon Hai has captured all the assembly orders for the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. Other assemblers, Luxshare and Pegatron, will contribute to orders for the entry-level iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max.
In terms of foundries, the first supplier of this year’s iPhone 14 series entry-level iPhone 14 is Hon Hai, and the second supplier is Luxshare. For the entry-level large-screen iPhone 14 Max, Pegatron is the first supplier, and Luxshare is the second supplier. As for the high-end iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max, Hon Hai exclusively won the order, and both are expected to benefit from Apple’s expansion of sales.
Apple is widely expected to unveil four new iPhone 14 models this fall including an iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Max, iPhone 14 Pro, and iPhone 14 Pro Max. It’s believed the iPhone 14 Pro will get an A16 processor, a ‘pill + hole‘ cutout design, a 48MP wide camera, a larger camera bump, an autofocus selfie camera, and rounder corners. The iPhone 14 is expected to keep the A15 processor and current notch but get 6GB of RAM. All four models may feature a new purple color, faster 30W charging, and slightly stronger magnets.
