In momentul de fata iDevice-urile companiei Apple inregistreaza vanzari foarte bune, insa doar americanii vor beneficia de pe urma lor deocamdata. O publicatie asiatica sustine ca partenerii asiatici ai celor de la Apple vor inregistra cresteri in vanzari/profit abia in Q1 2013 din cauza problemelor de productie ale noilor produse. Productia componentelor pentru iPad Mini si iMac 2012 se dovedeste a fi mult mai dificila decat se preconiza initial, partenerii Apple livreaza putine componente si primesc mult mai putini bani decat sperau.
Parts providers in Apple’s supply chain will reportedly have to wait until the first quarter of 2013 to see their revenues bump up as the result of Apple’s newly released iPad mini and 21.5- and 27-inch iMac due to mass production issues with the products, according to industry sources. Mass production of panels used in the iPad mini has reportedly suffered low yield rates, and backlight module providers have also had a shortage of supplies, which is affecting the amount of iPad minis that can be shipped in 2012, said the sources.
In luna urmatoare Apple ar trebui sa vanda cateva zeci de milioane de iDevice/Mac-uri in lumea intreaga, insa totul depinde de stocurile pe care le are la dispozitie. In momentul de fata iPhone 5, iPad Mini si noile iMac-uri vor fi greu de gasit in magazine, situatia probabil se va rezolva partial pana in perioada Craciunului, insa exista sanse mici ca stocuri suficiente sa fie disponibile peste tot in lume in cea mai aglomerata perioada de cumparaturi din intregul an.
