Report Does Not Mention the Reason for Increase in Production, but It Likely Has to Do With Consistent Demand for the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max
The Taiwanese version of DigiTimes’ latest report was spotted by MacRumors, with the following noteworthy information published. The report implies that Apple’s supply chain is seeing an improvement because earlier, these suppliers were forced to close their facilities partially or suspend production completely, which had an adverse impact on the availability of iPhones, iPads, Macs, and other products from Apple. The report does not state why Apple has asked suppliers to increase production of the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max, but it likely has to do with demand being consistent, at least for these two models. Aside from the reduction of the notch at the top, the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max are the only two models at this time to support Apple’s ProMotion technology, allowing both flagships to refresh their displays at 120Hz. The cameras for both handsets see an improvement, and Apple has also increased the battery capacities, which is why critics and users alike are thoroughly happy with the ‘screen on’ time both devices churn out. It is likely that the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max will officially be discontinued after the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max launch, so this may be the last time Apple asks suppliers to pick up production, at least for these two models.
