  • Apple (NASDAQ:AAPL) has warned suppliers of a 20% drop in new orders for iPhone parts, according to Nikkei Asian Review sources.

  • Total iPhone shipments dropped 1% Y/Y in the December quarter to 77.31M. Global smartphone shipments declined 0.3% to 1.46B units last year for the first-ever industry decline, according to IDC data.
