Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo predicts that strong demand for the iPhone 14 Pro series will make up for the sluggish popularity of the iPhone 14 and the price reduction of the iPhone 13, which is sold at the same time, and that Apple’s next financial report will be good. I’m telling you.
It was pointed out that there should have been no plan to increase production in the first place.
Bloomberg reported that Apple planned to manufacture 96 million iPhone 14 series units, increasing by 6 million units from the original plan of 90 million units, but gave up on this, but Mr. Kuo said that He said he had not heard of any plans to increase production.
However, as previously reported, he expects to reduce the number of iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus manufactured and replace them with iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max.
As a result, the sales volume of iPhone14 Pro and iPhone14 Pro Max will increase, which will make up for the sales volume and reservation status of iPhone14 and iPhone14 Plus, which are lower than expected, and Apple’s next financial report will be favorable. Mr. Kuo tells the forecast.

I reiterate my survey result that shipment forecasts of iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max will increase by about 10%, benefiting the iPhone ASP/product mix for 4Q22.The demand for iPhone 14 and 14 Plus is obviously lackluster.

I predict that Apple will likely offer a positive outlook for 4Q22 at the next earning call assuming iPhone shipments won’t decline significantly starting December.— Ming-Chi Kuo (@mingchikuo) September 28, 2022
