Hit By Covid-19 Lockdowns In China, Shipping Of Apple MacBook Pros Facing Delay

ABP News  

New Delhi: Apple has hit a roadblock in the production of MacBook Pros and the delivery dates have been postponed to June in the wake of the Covid-19-induced lockdowns imposed in China. The delay in shipments of MacBook models highlights the tech giant's struggles to keep up with the production and supply chain hurdles amid another wave of Covid-19 as China pursues a zero-tolerance policy for outbreaks, according to a report by news agency Bloomberg. Meanwhile, the production of a majority of the company's other Macs, including the MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, iMac and Mac mini, aren’t currently affected by the lockdowns in China. Apple’s highest-end MacBook Pro configuration -- a $3,499 version with additional graphics cores and memory -- is seeing delivery estimates as late as June 16 in the US, the report added.
