During Apple's quarterly earnings call on Wednesday, CEO Tim Cook said (via MacRumors) that Macs and iPads might be in short supply during the second half of the year.
"(The) shortages primarily affect iPad and Mac. We expect to be supply gated, not demand gated," said Cook, answering a question on chip shortages. Cook didn't detail which products, specifically, will be affected, but he says Apple will do its best figure it all out.
Apple CFO Luca Maestri also said the issue is a result of semiconductor shortages, and a "very high level of demand" for the iPad and Mac. Per Apple's earnings report, the company had record sales in both the Mac and iPad categories in the quarter ending March 31, 2021 — $9.1 and $7.8 billion, respectively. According to Mestri, the shortages will likely impact Apple's revenue in the third quarter of 2021.
