I ordered the iPhone 14 pro around October 23rd and the original ship date was October 28. Now that has slipped to November 8th or later.
You-tubing, I came across several videos suggesting that the CCP is enforcing draconian lockdowns which includes the Foxconn factory/dorm complex. Some of the videos suggest the workers looted nearby stores to find food.
Whether this is wholly the case or not, if true, it might, along with unexpected demand for the Pro series over the entry level iPhone 14, explain the new delays.
There are several videos, but this one is the shortest of the bunch;

With that being said, I'm looking forward to the new phone. I ordered the purple case and 256GB of memory. I'm going to gift my current XR--which has been a great phone--to an older neighbor.
The only thing I'm not sure is if I should have moved up the Max....
