Apple has seen an unexpected demand for the iPhone 17, so it’s ramping up its manufacturing.
We’ve already heard twice that the iPhone 17 preorders were going great, but now it appears that even Apple was surprised how great. A new report claims that the company is ramping up production to meet the unexpected demand.
Apple is ramping up production of the vanilla iPhone 17 model due to the surprisingly high demand for that particular model, according to a report by The Information. Following the strong preorders over the weekend, Apple asked two of its suppliers to increase production.
One of the two main assemblers of iPhones in China was asked to increase the daily production of iPhone 17 by about 40%. A supplier of non-electrical parts for the same model was told to ramp up production by about 30%.
While the increased sales of the iPhone 17 are impressive, that could mean bad news for the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max.
