Foldable iPhone production reportedly limited to few hundred units daily due to Apple's strict quality standards
↗
Apple's initial foldable iPhone production is reportedly limited to only a "few hundred" units per day due to the company's strict quality standards as it ramps up output.
A production rate of a few hundred units per day is extremely low for Apple, suggesting significant yield challenges in manufacturing a foldable device that meets its quality thresholds. This likely means constrained availability at launch and confirms that foldable hardware remains difficult to produce at scale even for Apple's supply chain.
