Foxconn, one of Apple’s largest manufacturing partners, continues to experience problems at its Zhengzhou facility. As it is known, workers working within the scope of China’s harsh Covid-19 measures protested the factory management due to quarantine conditions and non-payment of premiums. While the troubles caused interruptions in the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max shipments, it seems that there will be changes in Apple’s plans.Foxconn may lose iPhone orders
Today, reliable leak source Ming-Chi Kuo stated that “There may be a loss of 15 to 20 million in iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro shipments in the fourth quarter of this year,” and Foxconn may lose its peak model iPhone orders as a result. This shows us that Apple may turn to partners such as Pegatron and Luxshare for iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Ultra orders.
In addition, Pegatron and Luxshare are expected to meet 10 percent of iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max orders to make up for current losses. Here, we can say that Apple is cautious about possible risks. While the software giant plans to move iPhone production outside of China in the future, those plans seem unlikely to materialize anytime soon.
