iPhone 14 Pro (Apple)
Apple released an official announcement tonight (Monday) about delays in the delivery of iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max models.
This, following an ongoing shutdown at Foxconn's iPhone factory located in Zhengzhou, China.
"We continue to see strong demand for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro Max models," Apple said in a statement.
"However, we now expect a lower frequency of shipments than we previously expected, and customers will experience longer wait times to receive their new products."
Also, Apple emphasized that production at the factory continues in a reduced format.
Unlike many countries around the world that have long since moved to live "next to the virus", China is still implementing President Xi Jinping's "zero infection" policy, almost three years since the outbreak of the corona epidemic.
The country is rushing to impose closures and restrictions and conduct tests in areas where new infections have been detected - even if it is a few numbers.

Last month it was reported that due to the closure of the factory in Zhengzhou, Apple increased the production rate in other factories in the country.
At the same time, as an alternative to China, the technology giant transferred a large part of the production of the devices to India, with the aim of avoiding damage to the supply chains following repeated outbreaks of Corona and due to the deterioration of relations between the US and China.
