The coming months are expected to be exciting when it is known that the big tech companies will be coming up with new models of game consoles, updates that they will bring to the devices, as well as new phone models which have already been announced that will launch in the market.
However, when it comes to the supply of materials and the price of products, the situation is not good, precisely because of the pandemic that is seeming to be slowly receding.
For example, Apple has announced that it will use cheaper battery packs in the new iPhone in order to save and maintain some predetermined product prices.
In the face of rising production costs due to the inclusion of hardware and antenna for 5G connectivity in the iPhone 12 series, but also due to the Corona virus pandemic, Apple is trying to use cheaper components in other parts of the product, in in order to maintain a base price of the new iPhone model.
It is said that one of the biggest cost reductions will be made in the device’s battery technology.
It is believed that all this will result in a cheaper battery plate, which is up to 50% compared to what is in the iPhone 11. The iPhone 12 is expected to hit the market in October.
