CTOnews.com, Aug. 3 (Xinhua)-- Apple analyst Guo Mingyi today predicted that demand for the iPhone 15 series will be lower than this year's iPhone 14 series.

Mr Guo said lower demand could pose a challenge to revenue growth for Apple suppliers in the second half of 2023.

Guo Mingyi also said that Apple's progress in generating AI lags significantly behind its competitors, so Apple is not expected to mention much about AI at the earnings meeting. In addition, Vision Pro's 2024 shipping forecast is still quite small, so it is difficult to push up the share price of Apple and Apple's supply chain.

Guo Mingyi said that there is no sign that Apple will integrate AI edge computing with hardware products in 2024, so it is difficult to stimulate the share price of Apple and Apple supply chain.

The upcoming iPhone 15 series should include four phones: iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. According to previous rumors, all four models will be equipped with a USB-C interface and a Smart Island screen, which is currently unique to the iPhone 14 Pro series. The iPhone 15 Pro model also has a number of other rumored features, including a faster A17 bionic chip, a titanium frame, customizable Action buttons, a narrower display frame, Wi-Fi 6e support, and up to 5x-6x optical zoom for Pro Max cameras.

CTOnews.com noted that Tim Long, an analyst at Barclays in the UK, had previously said that the iPhone 15 Pro model could cost $100 to $200 more in the US than the iPhone 14 Pro model. These price increases are likely to dampen demand for equipment, especially in the past few years, where some consumers may reduce their discretionary spending as inflation is above average.
