iPhone 5 Shipping Estimates Drop to 1 Week


Last week, we reported that Apple has started to catch up on iPhone 5 demand in the U.S. Now, iPhone 5 shipping estimates for Asia and Pacific markets have dropped to just one week. That’s the shortest shipping estimate since the iPhone 5 went on sale back in September. A shorter shipping time might  mean demand is dropping, or more likely Apple has been able to ramp up production of the iPhone 5 to meet demand.

Even though shipping times still show two weeks in other markets, that should change within a matter of hours to reflect the new shipping time.

Apple is still not selling unlocked versions of the iPhone 5 in the US market. May be the increase in stocks might be an indicator that the unlocked iPhone 5s are going to go one sale soon.
