A report by The Information website revealed that Apple may have to postpone the launch of the iPhone 15 Pro by several weeks from the planned date.
Apple used to announce new iPhones in September of each year, but Amsi Mohan, an analyst at the Bank of America’s Global Research Foundation, said that the company may launch iPhone 15 phones in October.
According to the report, there are production problems that hinder the launch of the iPhone 15 phones on time, and he explained that the iPhone production factories face problems when assembling the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, as they use a different manufacturing mechanism aimed at reducing the bezels around the screen, to increase the size of the screens while maintaining the size of the phones themselves.
It is likely that Apple will produce fewer units of the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max, rather than delaying their launch.
The launch of the lower-priced iPhone 15 phones is not expected to be delayed, as there are no production problems with them.
However, it is expected that Apple will maintain the date of the official announcement of new versions of iPhone phones in September, regardless of the subsequent launch date.
It is noteworthy that Apple was previously forced to postpone the launch of the iPhone 14 Plus last year for several weeks due to a shortage of screens, and it also postponed the launch of the iPhone 12 series in 2020 due to a crisis in supply chains due to the outbreak of the Corona epidemic at the time.
