Apple had no choice but to delay the iPhone 12 last year. The company announced in late July that the new phone wouldn't launch on time. Pandemic-related events such as travel bans and lockdowns hindered Apple’s ability to develop and mass-produce the iPhone 12. But all signs point to a timely iPhone 13 launch this year. Apple didn't warn investors about imminent delays a few days ago. The company did mention the ongoing uncertainties related to the health crisis. It even acknowledged that the iPhone production line has to deal with chip shortages. But Apple made no explicit mention of an iPhone 13 launch delay.
Then something happened. A new report from Asia indicates that TSMC experienced a significant incident. The TSMC plant that’s producing iPhone and Mac chips dealt with an emergency situation on Thursday. But the company said there is no obvious impact on operations.
