The analyst writes:

In terms of the proportion of shipments and average delivery time, iPhone 13 Pro Max & Pro are 45–50% and 3–5 weeks, respectively, both higher than the 35–40% and 3–4 weeks of iPhone 12 Pro Max & Pro. Therefore, the pre-order demand for iPhone 13 Pro Max & Pro increases. iPhone 13 & mini are 50–55% and 0–2 weeks, respectively, both lower than iPhone 12 & mini’s 60–65% and 1–2 weeks. Therefore, the preorder demand for iPhone 13 & mini declines. Overall, pre-order demand for iPhone 13 series is better than iPhone 12 series.

In addition, the report also pointed out that Ming-Chi Kua also predicts that if iPhone 13 Pro/Max supply improves significantly in mid-November, shipments of the iPhone 13 series in the first quarter of 2022 will be flat or decline year-on-year.

Finally, Kuo also stated that Apple is expected to launch iPhone 15 that supports under-screen fingerprint technology in 2023, and the first folding screen iPhone may be launched in 2024.
