Apple Inc. has cut its orders for components for the iPhone 5 due to weaker-than-expected demand, people familiar with the situation said Monday.

Apple's orders for iPhone 5 screens for the January-March quarter, for example, have dropped to roughly half of what the company had previously planned to order, two of the people said.

The Cupertino, Calif., company has also cut orders for components other than screens, according to one of the people.

Apple notified the suppliers of the order cut last month, the people said.

The move indicates that sales of the new iPhone haven't been as strong ...

Oh..

[HeavyMetalFucker]

Dunno why they released a longer iPhone 4s and thought people would buy it.

WSJ changed its article title from 'Apple Cuts Orders for iPhone Parts as Demand Slips' to 'Apple Cuts Orders for iPhone Parts'?

Samsung topping the 100 million mark with the Galaxys and Apple selling less than expected ? Great day in the morning.

I love the iPhone, but honestly, did they expect it to be a big seller? Apple is known for innovating. I remember when the iPhone 4 came out, and I had to have it. I had never seen anything like it before. But when the 5 was announced, I didn't even bother upgrading from the 4s. They really had no inspiration this time around, and they need to get it together this time around if they want to stay relevant for long.

Good, maybe theyll innovate again

[.:Allen:.]

Oh. Poor dat.

Done

[Somalian Hooker]

No surprise, other phones are ahead of it by miles in terms of innovation.

Girl you is still stuck with that ancient artifact.. Until August!! My bf switched from that evo to iphone 4s last year and when I updated to the Evo Lte (One X variant for our overseas readers) he was left desiring more from his lackluster phone. I see him bored with the uninspired phone. It's pretty in the outside though. I guess.
