CTOnews.com July 21, Bank of America Global Research (BofA Global Research) analyst Mohan recently released a research report that Apple will postpone the launch of the iPhone 15 series until the fourth quarter.

Foreign technology media The Information does not agree with this view, thinking that Apple will release the iPhone 15 series in September as scheduled, but the initial supply of Pro models is tight due to the mass production of the LG Display.

▲ source Apple's official website the media believes that the frames of the iPhone 15 Pro and the iPhone 15 Pro Max (or iPhone 15 Ultra) are thinner than the iPhone 14 Pro model, causing LG Display to run into supply problems.

CTOnews.com quoted the media as saying that Apple suppliers are using a new screen production process to reduce the size of the frame, and LG Display has encountered problems in advancing the process.

Apple encountered a similar problem when it launched its Apple Watch Series 7 smartwatch in 2019 and ended up with a delay of about a month.

It is reported that the LG Display failed the reliability test in the process of fitting the screen and the metal housing. Apple is adjusting the design of the LG Display, but the Samsung Display screen has qualified and passed the test.

The report believes that the impact of iPhone 15 Pro Max is the most serious, and it is estimated that there will be insufficient stock at the beginning of the sale, and consumers need to snap up.
