Amaya Toman It looks like this year's iPhone sales will eventually exceed Apple's own expectations. The Cupertino-based company recently provided its suppliers with information on how many units it expects to sell this year, and the actual number of units sold seems likely to not only meet but exceed those expectations. According to the latest reports, the new iPhone 11 is selling much better than originally expected before its release.

Dan Pražák Apple's production target for iPhones for 2019 was 70 million to 75 million units. The company recently confirmed to its supplier partners that it is ready to reach 75 million units sold. The agency informed about it Bloomberg. The fact that the iPhone 11 is doing well was also indicated by Tim Cook, who said in one of the recent interviews that the latest models had a very successful start.
At first, no one predicted much success for this year's models. A number of analysts believed that users would prefer to wait for iPhones for 2020 – because these models are expected to support 5G networks and, above all, a new design. But this assumption turned out to be wrong in the end, and the iPhone 11 began to sell very well.

One of the reasons may be that iOS 13 cannot be installed on iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, which may have been the reason for many owners of these models to switch to the latest iPhone. When the mentioned models were released in 2014, sales also skyrocketed – because at the time it was the iPhone with the largest display ever.
Price can also be a big attraction for consumers. The basic iPhone 11 starts at 20 crowns, which makes it a relatively affordable smartphone. The iPhone 990 also gained popularity in China, a market where Apple has been losing ground recently.
The successor to the SE model is noticeably missing here. I would buy the children an iPhone 11, after all, the 11 Pro seems unnecessarily expensive to me, but they, without knowing the differences, prefer "the smaller one" because it is said to be better in the hand. I completely understand them, but for me it means spending a few tens of thousands more just because of the size, although it is not that significant. But it's nice to know unbiased opinions.
"Apple's 2019 production target for iPhones was 70 million to 75 million units" Didn't they sell 209 million last year? :)
For a quarter of a year of sales (in 2019), the 75 megabytes is quite a good figure, isn't it?
