A novel report from Economic Daily News is shining some positive news on the Apple iPhone outlook,after several months of narratives regarding slowing iPhone growth. The report suggests that Apple has ordered production of around 72-78 million iPhone 7 devices this year, significantly above analyst estimates.

Consensus from analysts had expected production circa 65 million,so a jump in ten million units is meaningful. more
