It looks like pending demand for Apple’s hot new iPhone 10 could be hitting demand for its other two new phones, the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus. Multiple sources say that Apple is cutting production demands for the two handsets by as much as 50 percent as the October 27 order date for the flashy halo phone nears. That’s unusual for Apple, and it nicked their stock price this morning as markets opened.

Now the worry is whether Apple can crank out enough iPhone 10 units to meet demand, which Verizon says appears to be heating up, despite the price tag, which starts at a thousand dollars and goes up from there. And who knows, maybe iPhone 8 demand will bounce back if wait times for the iPhone 10 stretch into weeks or even months. Can’t decide on which one to get?
