This hardware has been in manufacture at the rate of, let’s say, a million a day, for months. (A decent enough Fermi estimate for the purposes of this discussion.)
They can ‘spare’ 10,000 review units. This was a conscious decision not driven by hardware demand.
- aetherson 9y agoThat's a huge overestimate. Manufacture of the iPhone X might reach 200k per day, more likely 100k, quite possibly as low as 20k per day if some of the more pessimistic reports about undersupply are true, and have not been at that level for months in advance. Certainly nothing like 1M per day.
