iPhone users clinging to devices for longer than ever, AI may come to rescue
iPhone 16 series was launched by Apple earlier this week at its annual September event. Although Apple has been launching a range of iPhones for the past 5 years, it turns out that existing iPhone users are holding on to their devices for longer than ever. As per a recent report by Consumer Intelligence Research Partners (CIRP), more than one-third of new iPhone buyers in the US have been using their previous phones for three or more years. The report further reveals that the percentage of iPhone buyers using phones that are two years old or more has risen to 70% in 2024 from 66% in 2023.
Several analysts believe that the new Apple Intelligence features will drive a surge in sales of the new iPhone 16 and it turns out that Apple has pushed the production of the device by 10% this year. As per the report, the Cupertino-based company is aiming for a total output of 90 million iPhone 16 series models.
