Apple is reportedly doing everything in its power to prevent any unnecessary delays concerning the iPhone 12 launch. Unfortunately, the latest info states that the upcoming iPhone series is facing serious mass production delays ranging between four weeks and two months due to postponements caused by factory lockdowns and workplace absences. If the situation isn’t improved in a timely manner, the report claims that the final assembly process could be delayed to early October, with an official launch taking place much later.

A person familiar with the matter told Nikkei that further delays are possible.
