All eyes are focused on the new iPhone models that have been launched this week and obviously once the reservation of the fifth generation Apple TV, the Apple Watch Series 3 and the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus has started, delivery times are affected.
It is not usual for the stock to last a long time and the units are running out as the hours go by, in the case of our country so far the stock of these new products is still good and the shipping dates mark September 22 in all of them. In the United States, shipments of the new iPhone 8 and Apple Watch Series 3 are already suffering 1-2 weeks and 2-3 weeks delays for Apple Watch Series 3 LTE.
It seems that the sales of the new iPhone 8 and 8 Plus along with the Apple Watch Series 3 LTE are the first to add delays in shipments. In the case of the Apple Watch Series 3 there are significant delays of 2-3 weeks -as can be seen in the upper screenshot-, while the iPhone 8 accumulates 1-2 weeks at the moment. These figures may vary upwards in the next few hours. and once sales stabilize, they will once again have better availability in Apple's online stores.
Evidently all this situation of «normality» of stock in Spain may change in the following hours and the new iPhone 8 or Apple Watch Series 3 can see their shipping time delay if demand increases. For now, we already say that only on the United States website these delays in deliveries are being seen, something that can go further as reservations increase. On the other hand, this makes us think that the iPhone X will be really difficult to buy when they put it on sale, we'll see.
That there is still stock at this time means that sales are not what they expected.
Users are already tired of so many refried foods and that is reflected in sales.
I totally agree, Keko. For me this latest rehash of the iPhone 8 is unacceptable and very expensive. I do not predict a good future.
Well, if few iPhones 8 have been made, who in their right mind is going to buy an iPhone if they have had a 6, 6s and 7 previously a 4-year rehash, those who have a 5s down will buy it.
