While some iPhone 14 components are facing supply chain issues, Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo believes the issues will have a limited impact on the upcoming mass production of iPhone 14 models, which should be announced in September.
In a tweet, Kuo said other vendors can help make up for component shortages. For example, Kuo said that Samsung Display and BOE can largely fill the initial supply gap caused by LG Display’s problems with the appearance of the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max display panels. Kuo also said LG Display shouldn’t take long to fix the issue.
Overall, Kuo’s comment is good news for the availability of the iPhone 14 later this year. The lineup is expected to include the 6.1-inch iPhone 14, 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max, 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max.
