iPhone 17 has people eager to buy, says analyst

The new Apple iPhones are sold well in pre -orders, although the data is less clear for a particular model.

Apple analyst, Ming-Chi Kuo, shared his reflections on demand from the new Apple iPhone range on X on Monday. According to Kuo, the pre-order request for the iPhone 17 series during the first weekend of pre-orders was “better than that of the iPhone 16 last year”.

The most expensive model – the powerful iPhone 17 Pro Max – would be in the highest demand, but the other variants of the iPhone 17 also seem to go.

As for the new Apple iPhone Air, it does not seem too well to manage, by Kuo, even if the analyst himself recognizes that he is too early to say. He says that the demand for iPhone air “seems to be lower than that of the iPhone 16 Plus in the same period last year”, to judge by Apple Expedition. But the production volume of the iPhone air would have been about three times that of the iPhone 16 Plus in comparable periods of the year, which means that iPhone air could in fact sell very well, it’s just that Apple in fact more.

“Consequently, it is more objective to observe the demand after a period of sales,” concludes Kuo.

The new Apple iPhones were launched last Tuesday at the annual launch of the company of the company and became available in pre-order on Friday. They will be available in stores on Friday September 19.
