"Renowned Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has joined a growing stream of analysts reporting that Apple is scaling back iPhone Air orders. Per Kuo, Apple is scaling back both shipments and production capacity. Most suppliers will reduce capacity by more than 80% by Q1 of 2026, and some components with longer lead times will be outright discontinued by the end of 2025."
"It seems that, like the iPhone mini and iPhone Plus models, the Air was unable to gain significant traction. But this doesn't mean that the iPhone Air has failed. Apple's iPhone Pro models usually outpace all other models in the beginning. Apple could just be adjusting production to help Pro sales. Apple's vast supply chain allows it to be flexible in that way."
Apple is scaling back iPhone Air shipments and production capacity. Most suppliers will reduce capacity by more than 80% by Q1 2026. Some components with longer lead times will be discontinued by the end of 2025. iPhone Air demand fell short of expectations and failed to gain significant traction similar to iPhone mini and Plus models. iPhone Pro models typically outsell other models early, and production adjustments may aim to support Pro sales. Non-Pro iPhone models often improve sales several months after launch. The iPhone Air line may be discontinued after this model.
