Predicts a sharp drop in the supply of MacBooks equipped with Apple Silicon

Apple MacBook supply growth In the first quarter of this year, it was about 115 percent, which is a huge improvement for the Cupertinos. Apple owes this stunning growth largely to its M1 series MacBooks. The M1 chips were the first in a series of proprietary Apple Silicon chips based on the ARM architecture that outperformed Intel x86 processors and, more importantly, excelled in power consumption. However, Apple may not be able to repeat this huge success in 2022, as a huge drop is expected for the release of MacBooks equipped with Apple Silicon next year. The most important reason for this will be the lack of necessary parts for the production of these devices.

Currently, the main obstacle for manufacturers to produce more devices and earn more money is the lack of essential components such as chips. Something that almost all electronics depend on. Apple, as one of the tech superpowers, is also involved. The crisis does not seem to be coming to an end any time soon, as the delivery time for these components has now been extended to 52 weeks, according to a new note from Ming Chi Koo on the lack of integrated power management circuits. Apparently, this shortage of parts will affect all PC manufacturers, so we can expect the availability of some models in the first half of 2022.

Apple Silicon-powered MacBooks cut in 2022

However, the lack of components such as chips is just one of the problems that Apple is facing. Apart from this, the decrease in the purchasing power of users can have a significant impact on the supply of the company’s MacBooks. Due to inflation, as well as a return to the old way of working, many companies are now trying to get back to normal, so naturally the demand for personal computers, including laptops, will decrease. Also, many users who are waiting for the introduction of the M1X MacBooks will ignore the current M1 series models.

These changes in the purchasing decision also affect the migration from the older generation to the new generation and ultimately reduce the supply of devices. Although Apple may try to reduce the impact by discounting the price of the M1 models to keep users unable to afford the M1X, on the other hand, the excitement for newer models may be greater than the discount for older models. Help Apple a lot.

In addition to the fact that the next-generation MacBook Pro will be equipped with the M1X chip, both the 14-inch and 16-inch models of these devices will have an iPhone 12-inspired design with those flat edges. According to confirmed reports, these devices will be equipped with a MagSafe charging port, an HDMI port and a UHS-II SD memory card slot. The M1X MacBooks are expected to be unveiled at a virtual event in October or November.
