Reports have proposed that Apple has already started to adjust its iPhone shipments for the year, but in the view of one analyst, Apple will see a hefty drop in what it produces and shifts across the year.

This apparently equates to a 15% year-on-year decline, and the “most significant decline” among major phone makers in 2024.
