The Apple iPhone 17 series has initiated the strongest growth in smartphone sales for the company since the pandemic. Bank of America analysts cited Apple's own store data and carrier data this week, stating that the shipping times for the iPhone 17 are longer than in previous years, which "may indicate strong demand." "The longer the delivery cycle, the better the product cycle usually is," the analysts noted, pointing out that the waiting time for the new iPhone has increased by about 13% compared to last year, which may signal a broader "upgrade cycle." Additionally, supply chain checks indicate that orders for the iPhone 17 are "much stronger" than last year's iPhone 16
