Is there a big problem with the iPhone 14 base plate? Apple will change to a new supplier

With the official launch of Apple's latest iPhone 14 series, a variety of problems have been exposed. Whether the hardware configuration is not significantly improved compared with the iPhone 13 series, or various bugs appear in the IOS 16 system, users are very worried. Recently, there is news that Apple will replace the supplier with a problem in the base plate of the iPhone 14. Presumably, everyone is very curious. Let's take a look at it together!

Recently, it was reported by foreign media that due to problems in product quality of existing RFPCB substrate supply companies, Apple is planning to find suitable suppliers again, and said it will reorganize the smartphone RFPCB supply chain system.

Previously, Apple's RFPCB substrates were all supplied by Korean related enterprises. Last year, Samsung Motor, the largest supplier of Apple's RFPCB panels, announced its withdrawal from the RFPCB substrate business, which caused obvious problems in Apple's RFPCB substrate supply chain. Although Apple quickly found an enterprise to supplement the supply of RFPCB boards, the company's RFPCB boards had obvious problems in terms of defect rate and output. It is worth mentioning that the company has supplied 80% of the RFPCB substrates of the iPhone 14 series this time.

In order to solve the problems faced by the company on the RFPCB substrate, Apple has tested the product quality of other RFPCB substrate suppliers in South Korea. Apple has always adhered to the multi supplier strategy, hoping to promote competition by obtaining parts from multiple companies. If the new RFPCB substrate supplier can pass Apple's test, it is expected that the products supplied by the company will be seen on the iPhone 15 series as soon as possible.

However, according to the current information, the company has little chance of passing the test. The news said that the company had no supply history of RFPCB substrates before, and the product strength still needs to be considered.

The above is the introduction of the basic problems of the iPhone 14 series. Although it does not have much impact on users, there are still many bugs in the IOS 16 system, which greatly affect users' experience. Although Apple has sped up its efforts to repair the problem, many users still complain about this situation!
