"Analyst Kuo Predicts Up to 15% Decline in iPhone Shipments for 2024"

Slumping sales in China, where weekly shipments have been declining by 30-40% on a yearly basis, are attributed to the lack of foldable phones and generative AI features, which are key selling points for high-end users. Kuo predicts that without major design changes or generative AI features until 2025, Apple's shipment momentum may further decline.
