Finally, "Lowered than expected demand" for companies other than Apple.
I thought that was the norm.
It was only apple that traditionally could not meet demand, that changed with the x, due to price, in my opinion .
I’m still not convinced people are sold on smartphones that cost over $1k. XR will beat the XS , where traditionally the premium tier always sold the most units for Apple.
Love my X , though I used to update each and every year , now I can’t justify the price just to gloat I have the latest and greatest, iPhones have become some fast , they can easily last 3-4 years, unlike previously where they would become super slow with updates .
Though this is impacting all manufactures, smartphones are no longer cpu/gpu limited so demand each year should go down.... and frankly innovation across the board is .... copying each other’s features .
