The upcoming Apple iPhone, the iPhone 15 model series of handsets, is the subject of numerous rumors. As there are numerous rumors circulating regarding the specifications, features, and pricing for the iPhone 15 models, we have reports from a few analysts cautioning Apple that their new iPhone 15 models sales may be performing quite poorly in terms of its sales numbers. Apple has been anticipating that the new iPhone 15 series will be making its way to the top list of best-selling iPhones for this year.
We recently received a new prediction from a well-known Apple tipster confirming that the next iPhone models will only be produced in small quantities. Everything you ought to know regarding this brand-new rumor that is circulating is outlined below.

The Cupertino giant, Apple, reportedly plans to reduce the production targets of their upcoming new flagships for this year, iPhone 15 models, out of concern for tepid consumer demand for this year, according to a new prediction from a well-known Apple tipster, Jeff PU.
According to the renowned tipper Jeff Pu, Apple may be considering lowering its manufacturing plans for the first time, despite having high expectations for the sales figures.

The insiders also disclosed the precise production targets for Apple, according to which the Cupertino company will reduce the number of iPhone 15 units produced for this year’s end to 77 million from the usual 83 million units sold. This reduction amounts to almost 6 million fewer units than are typically produced each year for the iPhone model.
“The build plan cut before launch isn’t a positive signal, and the potential price hike for iPhone 15 Pro Max could also dampen the end-demand,” Pu wrote in an investor note seen by 9to5Mac.
