According to a memo prepared for investors by Haitong International Securities Group analyst Jeff Pu , obtained independently by Apple-affiliated media 9to5Mac, Pu said, 'Apple's iPhone 15 production forecast by the end of 2023. ” has been reduced from 83 million units to 77 million units. The reason Pu revised the production forecast downward is that Apple still has supply problems, which may affect mass production. In particular, Sony's camera sensor, a new titanium frame for the Pro model, and a new display with thinner bezels are expected to impact the supply side.

In addition, Mizuho Bank forecasts that iPhone production will reach 217 million units in 2023, which is 10 million less than the 227 million units in 2022.
In addition, 9to5Mac reported that the release date of the iPhone 15 Pro Max may be several weeks later than other models, citing ``a memo by a major stock analyst obtained from its own information route.'' In this memo, the reason for the delayed release is ``Delayed supply by Sony to supply the image sensor used in the iPhone 15 Pro Max''. Bank of America analysts have also predicted that iPhone 15 shipments will be delayed until October.
In addition, it is rumored that the iPhone 15 Pro Max will be the first model to adopt a periscope lens for better optical zoom. If this technology is realized, it is expected that it will be difficult to release it at the same time as other iPhone 15 models.
