There have been several rumors about the upcoming Apple iPhone 14 series smartphones, revealing what we should expect from the next-generation devices from one of the world’s largest smartphone brands.
Now, in a new development, it is being reported that the Apple iPhone 14 has entered into the trial production phase.
A report from UDN claims that the Apple iPhone 14’s design is currently in trial production which means that a small number of devices are being built which will be used to collect data that will be used for the mass production process.
The aim of this trial production is to find out if the design has any issues or problems or if there is any possibility of improvement for the product. This phase is also used to determine the production output capacity for the company as well as for developing the quality control procedures.
Interestingly, Luxshare, the company which is assembling the Apple iPhone 13 Pro, hasn’t received a production service order yet for the iPhone 14 series. It is being speculated that the company won’t get orders for the iPhone 14 Pro but instead, it will be assembling the base iPhone 14 model. Last year, Luxshare managed to receive 3 percent of the total iPhone 14 Pro orders.
The process of the production of the Apple iPhone usually beings in February with Apple issuing the orders to the manufacturers. After getting the service order, the manufacturers create a Bill of Materials (BOM) for the production and testing machines for quality control.
