Nanduwan Finance and Social Security reporter found that this is not the first time Apple's official website server crashes. Previously, when the pre-sale of iPhone 14 was launched on the evening of September 9, due to too many people, Apple's official website was stuttered for a while, and even showed that it could not be purchased.
The same situation occurred when the iPhone 13 was launched last year. On the evening of September 17, 2021, the iPhone 13 series mobile phones began to be pre-sale on Apple's official website and major e-commerce platforms. Not only did the products on each platform "short" in seconds, but Apple's official website also had page stuttering and unable to pay.

The price of all iPhones, Apple Watch Ultra, Apple Watch Series 8 and the second-generation AirPods Pro is $777777/month (about 5.3822 million yuan).News from the supply chain shows that the stocking progress of the iPhone 14 series new phones is ahead of schedule. As of now, more than 34 million units have been completed, which means that the original total of 90 million units by the end of this year has been completed by more than one-third.

According to previous official information, the iPhone 14 series will be officially launched on September 16, and is still in pre-sale status and is already very popular.
In addition, the iPhone 14 Pro series is the most popular model in the country, and there is already a shortage of supply. According to the iPhone 14 offline pre-order survey previously published by Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 14 Pro series in China accounts for about 85% of the order allocation, and the iPhone 14 Plus has the lowest order allocation, about 5%.
According to Apple's official website, the expected delivery time of iPhone 14 Pro has reached 5 to 6 weeks, the expected delivery time of iPhone 14 Pro Max is 6 to 7 weeks, while the standard model of iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Plus don't have to wait for a long time, and the standard model is expected to deliver 2 to 4 working days, and the iPhone 14 Plus will not be released on October 7th.
Nanduwan Finance News reporter noticed that at around 4 pm on September 15, the number of reservations for the iPhone 14 Pro series on the JD flagship store of Apple's products has reached 286,000, and the number of reservations is still increasing.
