The release of the iPhone 12 series will be delayed by at least two months, and this year's iPhone launch will start in November instead of the usual mid-September, according to a new report from investment bank Cowen.
Previous reports have estimated that the launch and mass production of new iPhone projects have been delayed by 1 month due to the ongoing novel coronavirus pneumonia epidemic.
The new report also predicts that total production will reach 35 million in the second quarter of 2020, down 13 percent from a year ago.ย
