Guo Mingzhen: the unit price cost of Apple’s iPhone 12pro 5g components reaches US $75-125
On August 22, well-known analyst Guo Mingzhen reported that only 5g components of the iPhone 12 series could increase the individual cost of Apple by $125. All models, including the four iPhone 12 series, will support 5g networks, which will increase Apple’s component costs. < p > < p > Guo doesn’t want apple to pass on all the cost increases to the iPhone 12 consumer price. This means that Apple may offset 5g component costs by seeking cost savings elsewhere in the phone. Guo pointed out that battery printed circuit boards are an area where Apple has reduced specifications. Fortunately, Guo also said that cost cutting would not have a negative impact on the user experience. Another measure Apple may take is to put huge price pressure on its suppliers to get the best component deals. Apple can achieve this by purchasing parts from multiple suppliers rather than from a single supplier, providing apple with a high price leverage to improve its profit margin. < / P > < p > on the other hand, according to previous rumors, the iPhone 12 box will cancel the charger and earpods headset. The leaked iPhone 12 packaging pictures are said to show only room for the iPhone 12 fuselage and perhaps a charging line, and there is also news that the cable will be made of braided wire in order to improve its durability and prevent long-term wear and tear.
