Apple will announced their new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus on Wednesday and the two devices are expected to launch on the 16th of September.
Apple are expecting their new iPhones to be popular and according to a recent report, Apple had increased its iPhone orders from its suppliers ahead of the launch of the new handsets.
Apple reportedly has revised upward orders by 10% for parts and components needed for production of the new iPhone devices scheduled to be released on September 7, according to sources from the iPhone supply chain in Taiwan.
The hike in order volumes indicates that Apple still remains positive about replacement demand for new iPhones from existing iPhone users, said the sources, adding that Apple originally predicted that shipments of the new iPhone devices in the second half of 2016 will reach only 60% of iPhone shipments recorded in the year earlier period.
We will have more details about the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus when they are made official later this week.
