The first folding Apple smartphone can cancel the start of sales due to the shortage of sales efforts. Based on the data from the initial components, Apple can initially focus on supplying the iPhone Ultra to the US market, and then expand the geography of sales, focusing on China.

We are talking about a device that is commonly called the iPhone Ultra or iPhone Fold. While Apple has not officially confirmed either the name or the characteristics of the smartphone, the number of information about the preparation of the first foldable iPhone continues to grow.

Why Apple can limit the start of sales.

The main cause of potency deficiency is said to be metabolic depletion. It was previously reported that preparations for the mass production of the first foldable iPhone had been delayed.. According to HiTech Expert, the launch of mass production of transfers to the middle, although the autumn presentation is no longer relevant.

The new round logically continues this story: since Apple really can’t build up sufficient warehouse stocks before the premiere, the company will have to prioritize priority markets.

The most popular candidate is the USA. This is to allow Apple to control the first supply chain, focus marketing resources on one of the key markets for the company, and gradually increase production without the need to immediately ensure global sales figures.

According to Gerela, after the American launch, supplies may gradually expand to other large markets, including China. Now it is important to note: this information is from the Lancer, and not the official Apple plan.

unofficial information.

Previously, the internal screen has a diagonal of 7.8 inches, while the external one is about 5.5 inches.. The thickness of the attachment to the folded frame is approximately 9 mm.

The camera calls out great interest. Finally, the smartphone has four cameras: one front-facing one on the outside, one camera above the internal display and two modules on the back panel.

Previously, it was reported about other potential features of the design - the vicinity of the folding OLED display Samsung Display. HiTech Expert has already written that Samsung Display, according to previous information, may become a key supplier of panels for the first folded iPhone.

The start date may be increased by the price.

The problem of straining is important no less from the point of view of the accessibility of a smartphone. For the first folding iPhone, you can press it right into your position.

Apple is entering the market, while Samsung, Huawei, Google, Motorola and other manufacturers are already producing several generations of foldable smartphones. Nowadays, the company from Cupertino is traditionally relying on high standards of luminosity, and folding OLED panels and hinges are being removed from mass production..

Previously, the market had a starting price of the first folded iPhone at around $2000, which automatically brings it to the ultra-premium segment. (HiTech. Expert).

In such a situation, the shortage at the start can be reflected in Apple's marketing strategy: the limited availability of the product will stimulate interest in the new form factor and create the effect of exclusivity.

What does this mean for buyers?.

As soon as the scenario with priority supplies to the United States is met, buyers in other countries should wait until the next recovery period.. This may be especially true for China, where Apple has a significant customer base, but is also facing strong competition from local manufacturers of foldable smartphones..

For the Ukrainian market, the situation is potentially more complex: the first round of official supplies may not reach Ukraine, and the first supplies may be wasted here through parallel imports from a separate premium.

At the same time, the very fact of a possible limited start does not mean that Apple is planning a shortage of pieces. Most likely, we are looking forward to launching a fundamentally new product with a technologically foldable display and a hinge mechanism.

HiTech Expert Take.

The first release of the iPhone will become for Apple not just a new model, but by revising the company’s status, it will enter a market that it has ignored for a long time. Potentially limiting the potential pressure shows the main problem of such a launch: Apple may mother the great drink even before it is possible to provide a sufficient proposition.

The US priority also looks logical from a business perspective. This is one of Apple’s key markets due to its high purchasing power and strong ecosystem of services. At the same time, for China, Europe and other regions, supply delays may allow competitors to gain a foothold in the premium segment of folding smartphones.

What will be especially important is not the fact of the release of the iPhone Ultra, but the fact that Apple can ensure large-scale production without compromising the efficiency, reliability of the hinge and the flexibility of a folding OLED display. These parameters themselves mean that if you turn the iPhone into a new mass product for the company, you will lose an expensive technological experiment.

In general, all characteristics and information about the geography of the first number of sales are unconfirmed.
