xemptyzJust one week after its launch, the standard iPhone 17 has forced Apple to urgently increase production because the number of orders exceeded expectations. According to The Information, Apple asked its partner Luxshare to increase daily production by 40% to meet unprecedented demand.
Initially, the company only planned to produce 25% for the standard version and 65% for the Pro line, but the reality is going completely the opposite. The reason is that the iPhone 17 is "too good" for its price of 24.99 million VND, as it possesses many features that are only available on the Pro version.
For the first time, Apple brings down the 120Hz ProMotion display, a powerful camera upgrade, and the Center Stage feature to the regular version. The gap between the two lines of devices is almost erased, making many people no longer see a reason to spend an extra 10 million for the Pro version. In a sensitive economic context, consumers are more likely to choose “worth the money” rather than “expensive” products.
Apple may be happy about the sales increase, but it also has to face the reality that it has created a “monster” that overshadows the Pro line. Dear readers, please watch more videos : Top 10 'Scary' Technology Devices of the Future.
