TrendForce: It is expected that the production of four new iPhone 16 series models will reach 86.7 million units in the second half of 2024

According to the latest survey by TrendForce, Apple's upcoming iPhone 16 series will use the new A18 and A18 Pro processors, and will fully upgrade the memory to support the Apple Intelligence function. TrendForce said that after WWDC24, users' expectations for Apple Intelligence are constantly increasing, and it is estimated that the total output of the four new iPhone 16 series models will reach 86.7 million units in the second half of 2024.

It is understood that the memory capacity of iPhone 16 and 16 Plus has also been increased to 8GB to support Apple Intelligence functions.

Apple Intelligence is a highlight of this year's iPhone 16 series. Although the parameters of its large language model (LLM) are not as good as those of Android phones, Apple is expected to achieve better system integration with its closed system and processor advantages, as well as its high level of mastery of APP development.

In addition, affected by the rising prices of memory, the total production cost of the iPhone 16 series has increased slightly.

However, considering the overall downward trend in the smartphone market, the pricing of the upcoming iPhone 16 series is still expected to be on par with the iPhone 15 series.

Even if the price remains unchanged, users will choose phones with larger storage capacity because they are likely to take and store large quantities of high-definition photos and videos, download music and large games, and frequently install applications, thereby bringing greater profits to Apple.
