Apple reportedly cuts iPhone 18 Pro component orders by at least 15%.

Apple told some suppliers to reduce components for the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max, according to a Nikkei Asia report cited by Reuters. Nikkei said October orders were cut by at least 15% from the volumes originally requested and that the company had become more conservative on shipments since early September.

Reuters said it could not independently verify the report, and Apple did not immediately comment. The reported adjustment comes as AI-driven demand has tightened memory-chip supply, while the new Pro models carry starting prices $100 above their predecessors.
