A few months ago, rumors pointed toward an Apple event in late March, with the focus being an affordable phone, likely dubbed the iPhone 9 or iPhone SE 2.
However, according to a report by CultOfMac, this isn’t likely to happen.
A source at Apple told the outlet that production problems will delay the launch of the new iPhone. Because of this, Apple reportedly decided to postpone the event altogether.
If true, the postponement is likely a result of several factors, all tied to the coronavirus outbreak: production delays and bottlenecks in China, where Apple’s iPhone is produced, as well as the recent ban of mass gatherings in Santa Clara County, where Apple’s headquarters are.
