"It appears that a big part of the difficulties are stemming from the quality requirements Apple has for the production of the iPhone Duo. One source said that suppliers are waiting for Apple to decide whether it will relax some of the quality requirements, which could accelerate production."


The difference between Apple and its competitors is that Apple refuses to compromise on component quality. By insisting on cutting-edge parts—such as the latest display technology from Samsung—rather than relying on older, proven tech, Apple ensures a superior final product. While this approach creates production challenges, it demonstrates a commitment to quality over rushing to market, which is ultimately a positive trait for consumers.

Contradict much, Alexa? This you?

Samsung is having the same issue, which is the reason why you didn't get your Fold 8—but keep talking. You sound stupid. Tell me, where is your Fold 8 that you ordered a month ago?👇

"Apple is not alone in this type of issue, with Samsung also facing manufacturing problems with its own passport-style foldable. Apparently, the demand for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 was so high that the Korean company faced a shortage of a specific display chip. While this doesn’t seem to have affected supply, the company had to redirect inventory from future products to its current hit."

Unlike your stance on Samsung, Apple prioritizes cutting-edge components rather than relying on outdated technology like three-year-old cameras or older displays. For instance, the Z Fold uses M13 panels, whereas the iPhone Duo utilizes M16 technology. It is clear that integrating new, superior tech simply requires a longer and more complex manufacturing process.

The Fold 8 situation has nothing to do with this, its demand vs supply. And yes Samsung is paying the price for setting the bar too low for the demand of the Fold 8. If they had forecasted higher sales no one would be waiting. Apple is making quality control changes in the last minute, after the product has been announced does that make any sense to you... please dont compare what cant be compared.

The article clearly states it is the same type of manufacturing issue, but as usual, you think you know better. You know more than everyone else as usual.

So many articles by the fruit company mouthpieces , to spread the propaganda that the fold will be very limited on release, just to drive the stupid sheeps to pre-order and commit to buying un reviewed 1st generation piece of engineering s**t ( dont take my word or the propaganda engine, go look at videos by Luis Rossman who was working as a mac repair man for a living )

As always with every is**t new product , there must be a shortage propaganda to play the psyc game on the sheeps as " The issues don’t stem from a specific problem with a certain technology " and its definitely not a quality problem ( iphone 6 is best example of how easily it could bent but the imaginary quality department didn't notice)

I just wish to go back 20 years when you can read about mobiles and technology from real journalists not this 20 s**ty article per day about one s**ty company and leaving real technology and good customer choices to the dust , and here im talking about chinese phones , thats according to the propaganda mouthpieces should not be trusted , and our trust should go to the country number one in manufacturing wars by fake reasons , that support dictators as long they serve them , that spy on it own people by thier on laws and acts , and thier allies head of states , and the list will go forever for anyone who has a working mind and can read history or real news about this country endless atrocities and its poppets companies.

Calm down, This is an article about a phone… 😬

Half baked software with launch of the new Pro Iphones, and now still experimenting with the Duo, even after they have announced the product... they have had 8 years to copy and learn and are dealing with last minute BIG issues ... Hey but Apple....

Well, it’s clear you don’t need top-notch software to get on phone arena and bitch about Apple. I do look forward to your comments on the article they put out about Apple selling more foldables than all the others combined.

I am not anti-Apple; I am simply pointing out the facts. My goal is to hold all manufacturers to the same standard rather than tolerating the blatant bias of those who ignore Apple's recurring flaws and hardware issues and are quick to judge Samsung/Google. It is frustrating to see people quickly criticize Samsung or Google for minor problems while simultaneously excusing Apple's mismanagement and manufacturing struggles. We should be objective and hold every company accountable for their product quality, regardless of the logo on the device. I say this all the time, the more "passes" Apple is granted, the more quality control issues we will see in their devices. We have witnessed this trend over the past few years, as evidenced by the growing list of documented hardware and manufacturing flaws across the iPhone lineup. Consistency in holding manufacturers accountable is essential, regardless of the brand.
