Apple will be unable to ship large volumes of its higher-end flagship product during the holidays after the largest factory producing it shut down amid the latest wave of COVID-19 lockdowns in China.
An industrial park in China’s Henan province that is home to a critical assembly plant for Apple iPhones closed last week for seven days after several COVID-19 cases were reported. The plant is owned and managed by Foxconn, Apple’s biggest iPhone supplier, which announced a “small” COVID outbreak at the plant.
