For reference, last year Apple produced 24.2 million units of iPhone 15 Pro Max and 21.8 million 15 Pro. Therefore, Apple is planning for a significant increase in iPhone production, which means the demand for the iPhone 16 series is also expected to be higher than last year’s iPhone year.
Not only iPhone 16 Pro models, but the standard iPhone 16 may also be produced greater in numbers. As of now, the iPhone 16 may have 24.5 million units which is a 27% increase from last year’s iPhone 15. However, due to the unpopularity of the iPhone Plus series, the iPhone 16 Plus units have been reduced from 8.5 million to 5.8 million. However, the demand curve changes each year, therefore the plans may eventually change after the official launch of the product.
