According to what Digitimes reported as information from the semiconductor packaging and test service industry, iPhone X shipments peaked in the fourth quarter of 2017 and somewhat depressed in the first quarter of 2018. However, this is due to bad weather in the United States, Taiwan, Singapore, etc. Sales in Japan are expected to continue as the sales are strong in Japan.

Meanwhile, the iPhone of the next generation of iPhone X is scheduled to appear in 2018, but the function of "Pre 5 G" that incorporates a part of the next generation communication standard "5 G" technology in advance is installed A prototype of iPhone that I did will also be made, and it is anticipated that price adjustment of the iPhone will be done around here.

Regarding the prototype and the price adjustment, as Apple's official rumor is that it is the rumor stages, whether price reductions including iPhone X are included as price adjustment is done, or whether the price reduction of the old model alone It is unknown whether.

For people who purchased iPhone X, it seems that they will be dissatisfied with price reductions less than half a year, but at iDownloadBlog, Apple made similar price cuts in 2007 and instead could use it in stores We cite examples of credits provided for dollars (about 11,300 yen), suggesting that the same situation may occur this time.
