According to Nikkei Asian Review, Apple will be able to ship just 20 million iPhone X units through the end of the 2017, half of what the company originally planned to make, due to production issues like with the iPhone X's new TrueDepth camera that powers Face ID and Animoji. KGI previously stated that 2-3 million units would be available for the launch on November 3.
The good news is that Apple's manufacturers have supposedly improved their yield rate, it's said only towards the end of September. The iPhone X is currently being produced at an estimated rate of 10 million units per month. In past years, Apple has easily exceed 10 million unit sales of new flagship iPhones in the opening weekend alone.
