Last week, Apple had set purchase limit across several of its products, including iPhone and iPad in various countries as the company closed all of its brick-and-mortar stores outside China, as the coronavirus spreads globally and forces lockdowns.
It seemed that the purchase limits were imposed as Apple braces for a blow due to the coronavirus’ impact on sales because of supply chain disruptions and weak demand. As for the limits, the company had limited purchase of iPhone and iPad Pro to two units while MacBook Air and Mac mini are limited to five orders per customer.

However, the company has now lifted the purchase limits that was imposed on iPhone, new iPad Pro, and new MacBook Air in countries outside of China. Apple’s website in the U.S. no longer has purchase restrictions and customers can buy as many 2020 iPad Pro, iPhone 11 Pro and 2020 Macbook Air as they want.
While the restrictions have been lifted, it seems that the company is not having a smooth run as far as selling of the newly launched devices is considered, mostly because of the disruption caused by the coronavirus outbreak.
Orders placed for the 2020 iPad Pro on the company’s online store shows that the device won’t get delivered before first week of April while some orders will be delivered in the last week of March. However, since there’s are no purchase restrictions, it seems that Apple has the situation under control.
