Following Samsung Galaxy Note 7 recall, Apple ups order volume for iPhone 7 parts by 10 percent


Apple is reportedly upping the order volume for iPhone 7 parts by 10 percent just before their iPhone event on 7 September.

Taiwanese sources tell Digitimes that the larger order might indicate Apple's increased confidence in the sale of the upcoming iPhone 7 devices. Previously, Apple had predicted that their sales would be about 60 percent of the sales of the previous iPhone in the second half of 2015 vs. the second half of 2016.

The iPhone 6s sold around 30 million units a month in the second half of 2015.


While it is most likely coincidence, some speculate that the recent recall of Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 devices might have something to do with Apple's increasing confidence in the sale of their upcoming device. The 5.7-inch Galaxy Note 7 is, after all, a direct competitor to Apple's 5.5-inch Plus model iPhones.

On the strength of a leaked scheduling memo from AT&T, MacRumors expects the new iPhones to start shipping on 23 September. Evan Blass, a rather reliable source of leaked information on Apple's devices, suggests that pre-orders for the upcoming iPhone 7 will begin on 9 September, 2 days after the launch event on 7 September.
Bear in mind that these dates are only speculation as of now.
