Es demasaido tarde para ordenar un nuevo iPhone Pro para las fiestas decembrinas

By Ninian Carter

November 30, 2022 - Si esperas un iPhone 14 Pro de Apple, tienes mala suerte. Los envíos están retrasados semanas debido a la actual interrupciónen la fábrica clave de Foxconn en Zhengzhou, China

Apple’s iPhone 14 Pro models will miss market expectations by around 10-15 million units in the holiday quarter due to Covid-19 restrictions and labour unrest at a major Chinese factory.

The world’s biggest iPhone factory, which employs 200,000 people and is operated by Foxconn in Zhengzhou, China, has been hit by worker protests over pay and conditions, and strict Covid lockdowns following a large spike in coronavirus cases.

Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes falling production at the plant means that market expectations for the quarter of 80-85 million unit sales will fall short to around 70-75 million units.

There are already signs of the impact on sales, with waiting times for delivery of the iPhone Pro now extending into at least a month in most major territories around the world – meaning it is now almost impossible to buy the handset in time for the crucial and lucrative Christmas holiday period.
