iPhone 12 testing delayed by Apple staff travel bans

The coronavirus or COVID-19 is a serious threat to global health, but it is also generating major economic problems for companies around the world, and one of them is Apple. The plans of the Cupertino company can seriously delay verses because of the virus and new reports from Digitimes corroborated.

Apple has been forced to close stores in several countries, has even advised its own Apple Park workers not to travel to the company’s headquarters in Cupertino and choose to work from home if possible. These restrictions also apply to international Apple workers who are prohibited from traveling to certain places.

And it is precisely these prohibitions that could delay the presentations of new devices such as the iPhone 12. We already told you a few days ago that it was not at all clear that Apple could present the iPhone 12 in the month of September as every year and this new report reveals that the company has had to delay the verification tests of the iPhone 12 because it cannot travel to China.

According to the Taiwanese publication, Apple has extended a month the restrictions that it has imposed on its engineers to travel to China, so for now, until April no company worker will make any business trip to Asia. These restrictions have caused the delay of the iPhone 12 verification tests, the so-called ” engineering verification tests “, or EVT.

The production of new devices generally begins in summer, but during the first months of the year, Apple employees visit China to perfect assembly processes with manufacturing partners such as Foxconn. EVT tests are essential since it is when Apple and the manufacturers get a key design to start production, which usually begins at the end of June. This means that if EVT tests are delayed 1 or 2 months, inevitably the production of the new iPhone will also do so.

However, Apple could have advanced, at least partially, these meetings through videoconferences and could still be on time. At the moment it is something that we do not know and that will not be revealed until the next months, however, if the coronavirus continues to expand during the next months it is more than likely that the launch of the new iPhone 12 will be delayed at least one or two months.

Recall that Apple is expected to present this year 4 different models of iPhone 12, two normal models of 5.4 and 6.1 inches, and two Pro models of 6.1 and 6.7 inches in size. This means that its manufacture will be more difficult than the current iPhone 11 that share design with last year’s iPhone. Hopefully, the coronavirus will be controlled soon, by everyone’s bine.
