Apple’s new iPhone 17 is already entering rarified Air

Well, this is the fourth day of the launch of the iPhone 17, it’s time to assess how it goes. (Look, it again beats to talk about AI.)

According to Information (Subscription required), Apple asked two suppliers to increase production by approximately one third to meet higher demand than expected for the low -end iPhone 17.

An increase in autumn production? In This economy?

Don’t worry. This simply means that when Apple finally asks them to reduce production after satisfying this increased request, they will be the biggest reductions Evahhh.

However, this is good news for the low -end iPhone 17, and there is a good reason for that. Apple brought the screen, the promotion and the front of the scene always on the low -end this year and increased storage while keeping the prices the same and doing nothing delicate, as eliminating the cheapest option, as it did with the iPhone 17 pro. This fur observer, for example, was able to go from an iPhone 16 to the iPhone 17 with the same quantity of storage and end up with a lower monthly payment. Good.

I mean, it’s a few dollars. Macalope does not take everyone to lunch. In addition, whenever he invites you to this new dried place in Luzerne, you have conveniently something, so forget it! He no longer asks you, Kevin.

Information Notes:

The change suggests that more consumers that Apple was waiting to buy the cheaper iPhone 17 model, which costs $ 799 in the United States, rather than pro Premium models, which cost $ 1,099 and more …

Oh, okay, then, yes, in this economy.

If more people choose to buy the basic iPhone this year, it could have an impact on Apple’s profitability for the quarter, although Tim Cook generally has a tip or two in its round to ensure that it is fluid for Apple. Some say it is a very large sofa full of change. Admittedly, just the guy who always stands out in front of the Gas-N-SIP trying to sell vape pens “slightly used” says that.

But what about iPhone 17 air? The initial word in the street on which Ming-Chi Kuo Vit indicated that he did not have a launch weekend as good as the other iPhone 17 models. The good news is, however, you can put your worries about the return of Bendgate.

Triggering warning for those of you who take good care of your Apple devices: the article contains an iPhone 17 video folded an uncomfortable quantity. They really need to score things like that. It’s like nails on a blackboard.

Kuo thought that the iPhone air could have more attraction for those who see one in the store than people who buy online, and on the basis of the reaction of those who have held one, it may be true. So there is hope that the apparatus will do better in the long term while people put their hands on it. In fact, if your hands have a lot of static, you may have to buy one if you pick it up because they are so light that they would also have trouble shaking as the tab of a aid strip.

True story.

(If someone says “true story” after something, it automatically makes him true.)

(True story.)

However, let’s face it, an iPhone 17 air is not cool. Do you know what’s cool? Two The iPhone 17 is hot.

According to a guy named Mark Gurrr-Man? (The first time reading this name, the macalope pronounces this right?), The next foldable iPhone will be like “Two Titanium iPhone Airs side by side”. If you need more evidence that this device will cost at least $ 2,000, macalope cannot really help you at this stage. An iPhone air costs $ 1,000. Two iPhone tunes cost $ 2,000. It’s just mathematics.

Obviously, if Apple’s margin on iPhones takes a hit this year, it will come back next year. Just wait until the company unveils the foldable Mac studio.
