According to a report from Australian outlet Channelnews, supply chain sources in China suggest the company is battling significant manufacturing complexities. These include testing failures for current production models and technical difficulties regarding the device's hinge and foldable display components. Such setbacks threaten to create an immediate supply shortage, forcing Apple to delay availability in secondary markets by up to three months.
This strategy would mirror the phased release of the Vision Pro, which debuted exclusively in the U.S. before a gradual international expansion. With a projected price tag of $2,300 to $2,500, the iPhone Ultra occupies a high-stakes luxury tier. Analysts suggest that countries like Australia will likely fall toward the end of the distribution queue, leaving global consumers waiting well past the initial September announcement to secure the device.
