Meanwhile, even though a number of important Meanwhile, even though a number of important design changes and performance improvements are in the pipeline this year, the truly radical iPhone family upgrade is widely expected to happen in 2019.
But that’s not going to stop Apple from selling a boatload of 2018 models, at least according to unnamed “industry sources” cited by the hit-and-miss Taiwanese publication Digitimes. Certain pundits apparently expect shipments of the “new iPhone series” to hit anywhere between 70 and 75 million units. By the end of the year alone.
That’s a crazy high number, even by Apple’s regularly impressive standards, and if the Cupertino-based tech giant can pull it off, it would reportedly mark the best year-end performance of a newly released iFamily since 2014’s That’s a crazy high number, even by Apple’s regularly impressive standards, and if the Cupertino-based tech giant can pull it off, it would reportedly mark the best year-end performance of a newly released iFamily since 2014’s iPhone 6
