Kuo recently claimed that rear camera lenses supplied by Genius were suffering from coating cracks. Considering how critical cameras are to the smartphone experience, Apple has reportedly been forced to pivot quickly and shift to a different supplier while Genius tries to fix its pipeline. Fortunately, Taiwanese supplier Largan is believed to be more than capable of handling Apple’s orders, even if Genius fails to address the alleged issue in one to two months.
The better news is that Kuo is optimistic these supplier changes won’t drastically affect Apple’s schedule or shipment figures. As mentioned earlier, Apple should already be used to this kind of problem and has even expanded its list of suppliers for this year’s iPhones. That said, it could still be a very optimistic outlook and Apple might be forced to limit the number of iPhone 14 units it will ship initially.
The iPhone 14 series will have a number of interesting changes, both in terms of hardware and marketing strategy — at least based on the rumors and leaks. The pill-shaped cutout is expected to finally replace the notch this year, and the iPhone 14 Pro will likely finally have upgraded cameras, as well. That said, Apple is also reportedly widening the gap between the base and Pro models, making the iPhone 14 more like a slightly upgraded iPhone 13. The company is also reportedly doing away with the 5.4-inch mini model option and replacing it with a 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max instead.
