Julian Ho and Adam Hwang for DigiTimes:

Japan-based suppliers together take up a large portion of Apple’s orders for VCMs, wire winding and other components, and then outsource production to Taiwan-based makers, the sources said.

Samsung’s sales of new smartphones in third-quarter 2021 fell short of original expectation… iPhones have taken over a large portion of Huawei’s original market share, and Taiwan’s component makers are placing high hopes on iPhone 13, the sources explained.
