Apple iPhone 14 Pro / Max supply is still severely restricted before Christmas holiday in the United States

CTOnews.com, December 7 (Xinhua)-- as the Christmas holiday in the United States approaches, the supply of Apple's iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models is still severely restricted and is unlikely to meet holiday demand in the United States. On the other hand, some other products, including iPad, Mac, low-end iPhone models, AirPods and so on, will be able to fully meet the needs of this year's holiday shopping customers.

Supply disruptions and persistent restrictions at iPhone's main plants mean that the supply of iPhone 14 Pro will be severely undersupplied. CTOnews.com learned that Apple said in early November, "We expect shipments of iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max to be lower than previously expected, and customers will experience longer waiting times to receive new products."

With the holiday season approaching, the supply of iPhone 14 Pro does not seem to have fully recovered. A month ago, the waiting time for shipments of iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max high-end models was about six weeks. Now it is about three weeks. Although the situation seems to have improved slightly, the three-week waiting time no longer allows customers to get the iPhone 14 Pro before the holiday.

Although it is not possible to order and obtain the iPhone 14 Pro before the holiday, Apple's other product lineup is still in ample supply. For example, according to Apple's online store, iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus are expected to reach customers within days, as will AirPods 3 and AirPods Pro 2, the new iPad 10, and some Mac, Apple Watch and HomePod mini.

"it is reported that Apple iPhone 14 Pro / Max will resume full production by the end of December this year or early January next year."
