The most recent was revealed by the Nikkei portal, which tells us the latest changes in the American company. Specifically, a drastic change affecting the components that were planned to be used in the iPad to be used for the iPhone 13.
Given the serious difficulties the company is already facing in developing its flagship smartphones, it does not want to face a shortage of stock, as has happened with other devices, such as PlayStation 5. To cope this, he tried to focus all efforts or at least a large part of them on the production of iPhones, to get over this syncope.

That’s because iPhones and iPads have some common internal components. From the center of the motherboard to some peripheral chips. Because of this, Apple has managed to allocate some of the manufacturing of iPad components to the iPhone.
IPads go into the background
Both the new iPad Mini 2021 and the rest of the models that continue to become the working tool for many people have ceased to be as relevant to the company as we could imagine. However, with this measure, Apple managed to save the launch and the high volume of sales they expected, because since the introduction of the iPhone 13 and its entire family, the production of the iPad has been reduced by 50%.
This served to use all those components in the production of the iPhone 13 and to continue production without affecting the flow of deliveries. But this was not the only change, as other iPhones from previous generations also left parts and components to leave the assembly line.
Something that is not really a novelty, because last year, during the health crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, resources from the iPad were also allocated for the iPhone 12. Some emergency measures that prevent those from Apple to be forced to leave those who want it without the new smartphone. Meanwhile, iPad sales have not fallen and remain a point of value for Apple, where it could have some problems in the future, however.
IPad production has dropped 50 percent from Apple’s initial plans in the past two months, informed sources said, adding that parts for older iPhones have also been moved to the iPhone 13.
Given the size of Apple’s operations, the company was able to overcome the component shortage that had such an impact on other companies and industries. The ability to switch parts between different production lines is undoubtedly a good resource in this regard.
How does this affect the iPhone 13?
For the peace of mind of anyone who already has an iPhone 13 in their hand, as well as for those who are thinking of getting one, they should not be afraid of anything. The hardware and software remain the same, as if parts of the iPads had not been used. We remember that not everything that catches our attention is part of the elements that allow us to develop a mobile phone.
The motherboard, memory or even the structure in which all these elements are incorporated are part of the production of a mobile phone. All those parts are what Apple decided to move from iPad to iPhone 13, but nevertheless other components such as lenses or batteries are developed strictly for a model and, of course, can not be reused so easily. This means that the features of the iPhone remain the same, without any changes for the consumer and for now and without effect on price.
