The sales of iPhone 14 Plus are cold, and the official website can deliver in three days!
The new iPhone released by Apple this year has changed its usual style. The previous mini model has been directly cut down and replaced with a large screen plus model. Just like the iPhone 7plus and iPhone 8plus models released by Apple earlier, the iPhone 14plus still has a large screen and battery. However, the sales of the iPhone 14Plus this year are cold, and the inventory on the official website is very sufficient. It only takes three days to get the goods. What is the matter? Come and have a look!
On October 9, the Shanghai Securities Journal reported that the iPhone 14 Plus, which had just been launched, had broken down significantly. According to the third-party channel quotation, the 128GB iPhone 14 Plus was 400 yuan cheaper than the official price, and the 512GB version had dropped by thousands of yuan. The iPhone 14 Plus is the latest model to be released in the entire iPhone 14 series, and was once the most popular model. Now it is an embarrassment that the first model is broken.

Take a closer look at the iPhone 14 series. The sales of the iPhone 14 Pro are still optimistic. In this case, Apple seems to be planning to focus on the iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max.
The market is not optimistic about the iPhone 14 Plus, which directly affects the second-hand value of this phone. The research institution SellCell analyzed the average swap value of more than 40 recyclers and believed that compared with the same period last year, the iPhone 14 and Plus versions were not good at preserving their value. The depreciation rate of the former was as high as 38.4%, while that of the latter was as high as 38.6%, which was the most unprofitable iPhone in recent two years. The depreciation rate of the iPhone 13 last year was 18.2%, and the iPhone 13 mini, which is awkward in positioning, was only 20.3%.
The delivery date of iPhone 14 Plus on Apple's official website is 3 working days, which means that the inventory is sufficient. This model sells so badly, probably because the price is too high. From 6999 yuan to 6999 yuan, there is neither a high refresh rate nor a popular Lingdong Island design. The image part is not as good as the Android flagship at the same price. Many small partners believe that on the basis of this budget, they can also buy the iPhone 13 Pro Max, and they can buy whatever they want. In addition to the large screen, the configuration of the iPhone 14 Plus is quite weak.
In fact, in the high-end mobile phone market, Apple can be said to have few competitors at present, and its market share once exceeded 70%. In such an environment, even if the toothpaste is squeezed, the sales volume is still much higher than that of many Android machines with thick piles of materials. However, Xiaolei believes that consumers do not have any discrimination ability towards Apple. The breaking of iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus is probably the best proof.
The failure of the iPhone 14 plus is also expected. After all, the configuration of this phone does not match its price. Although the fans are true lovers, they are not fools. If the price of the Double 11 or Double 12 mobile phone is reduced later, consumers will probably pay for it.
