J.P. Morgan analysts report that lead times for the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Pro have improved, as has in-store availability.
JP Morgan updates its Apple Product Availability Tracker on a weekly basis, listing delivery time changes for the iPhone 14 lineup. In a note to investors shared by AppleInsider, analysts indicate that lead times are returning to pre-outbreak levels.
Globally, the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus show a four-day shipping estimate in week 16 since their launch. That’s up from a 1-day shipping estimate the week prior. Meanwhile, the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max show a 22-day shipping estimate in week 16 since their launch. That’s down from a 25-day shipping estimate the week prior.
While lead times in the U.S. have improved by five days for the standard iPhone models, Pro model lead times slipped by two days. However, most SKUs of the Pro models are available for same-day pickup.
Lead times in China and Europe have also improved. Standard iPhone 14 models have about a 6-day shipping estimate. In-store pickup has also improved for Pro models in both regions too.
