Broadcom announcement hints at October release for iPhone 12 units

The executives at Broadcom may have lent additional support to the idea of an October release for the iPhone 12.

During a recent meeting on Thursday, the chip supplier stated that that its annual increase in shipments is expected to be later this year.

The increase in shipments, which analysts expect will be used in the next-gen iPhone, will run into the final quarter of 2020, according to the company. This is about a quarter later than typically occurs in most years.

In July, the company warned revenues for the quarter would be lowed due to “our large North American mobile phone customer,” assumed to be Apple, delaying a phone launch. In 2019, a fifth of its revenue came from Apple.

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
