According to a report in MacRumors today, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has just issued a new note to investors in which he says that supplies of the TrueDepth camera components for the iPhone X have now stabilised.
Kuo said that Apple will not “repeat the mistake” next year of delaying production of the iPhone, and he adds that in 2018, the successor to the iPhone X will “arrive on time” and “under stable supply.”
Kuo believes that the new iPhones that will launch in the second half of 2018 will have the same WLO (wafer level optics) for the TrueDepth dot projector, as well as the same 4P lens for the infrared camera as used in the iPhone X.
Kuo adds that with production now stabilised for those particular components that have proved so troublesome for iPhone production this year, and no major upgrade expected to next year’s TrueDepth camera system, 2018 iPhone production should be a much smoother affair for Apple.
