He says that the demand for the iPhone Air &#8220;appears to be lower than that of the iPhone 16 Plus in the same period last year,&#8221; judging by Apple shipping times. But the production volume of the iPhone Air was reportedly about three times that of the iPhone 16 Plus in comparable periods of the year, which means that the iPhone Air might actually be selling really well, it&#8217;s just that Apple is making more of them. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Therefore, it is more objective to observe demand after a period of sales,&#8221; concludes Kuo. <\/p>\n<p>        SEE ALSO:<br \/>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/article\/best-apple-iphone-17-pro-cases\" class=\"flex items-center text-secondary-300\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n            The best iPhone 17 Pro cases to protect (or hide) your new phone<\/p>\n<p>        <\/a><\/p>\n<p>Apple&#8217;s new iPhones were launched last Tuesday at the company&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/live\/apple-event-live-blog-iphone-17-ios-26-watch-announcement\" target=\"_blank\" data-ga-click=\"1\" data-ga-label=\"$text\" data-ga-item=\"text-link\" data-ga-module=\"content_body\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">annual September launch event<\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/article\/apple-iphone-17-preorder\" target=\"_blank\" data-ga-click=\"1\" data-ga-label=\"$text\" data-ga-item=\"text-link\" data-ga-module=\"content_body\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">became available for pre-order on Friday<\/a>.
