Expected iPhone 16 series first weekend sales 37 million down 12.7% year-on-year

On September 16th, well-known Apple analyst Guo Mingjian said that according to the latest supply chain survey and the pre-order results of Apple's official website, the following key data iPhone 16 first weekend pre-order models are obtained, including the first weekend pre-order sales, average waiting time and pre-order pre-stock estimates. iPhone 16 series pre-order sales in the first weekend are expected to be about 37 million units, a year-on-year decrease of about 12.7% compared with the first weekend sales of 15 series last year. One of the possible keys to the lower-than-expected demand for the iPhone 16 Pro series is that Apple Intelligence, the biggest selling point, cannot be listed with the launch of iPhone 16. In addition, the fierce competition in the Chinese market continues to affect iPhone demand. Although iPhone 16 Pro series pre-order sales decreased year-on-year in the first weekend, the production plan of the supply chain should not change much in the short term. If the Apple Intelligence release and peak season promotion in the fourth quarter have limited help for iPhone 16 shipments, I believe Apple will have a more aggressive iPhone product strategy in 2025 to boost demand. < br > < img src = "https://flash-scdn.jin10.com/1cc94162-b2e5-467d-85a4-bc3cc8990713.jpg" referrerpolicy = "no-referrer" >
