The recent restrictions on a factory in the central city of Zhengzhou led Apple Inc. to warn customers of delays in getting the latest iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. The company said, “customers will experience longer wait times to receive their new products.”
China has been operating on a zero covid policy since the start of the Pandemic and as recently as last week shut down Disney Shanghai.
This latest crackdown is as a result of virus outbreaks and a surge in infections in the Zhengzhou region. While it is still unclear exactly when the restrictions will be lifted, there are concerns that the tightened restrictions would impact Apple’s ability to get these devices to consumers. This could spell bad news for holiday shoppers hoping to put one under the tree this holiday season.
