For the first time in ten years, the American company Apple has stopped assembling the iPhone and iPad for a few days, Nikkei Asia reported.
Apple has reportedly been forced to suspend production due to a lack of device components and restrictions on electricity use in China.
"Because of the shortage of parts and chips, it made no sense to work overtime during the holidays and pay extra wages to employees," said one of the company's managers.
In September and October of 2021, it should be noted that Apple produced 20% less iPhone 13 than planned. IPad production fell by 50% during the same period. The situation was similar in November. Apple officials did not comment on the matter.
And, as the news agency Bloomberg wrote, the demand for Apple's iPhone 13 smartphones has decreased.
Apple Corporation was founded in 1976 and has been manufacturing PCs, tablets, audio players, phones, smartwatches, and software ever since.
