A new report from Nikkei says Apple will only ship half as many iPhone X units as expected in 2017 due to supply constraints .
日经中文网（Nikkei）的一份新报告指出，由于供应商方面的限制，2017年苹果公司能发出的iPhone X只达预期数量的一半。
Nikkei says the company will only be able to ship 20 million phones through the end of December, down from an estimated 40 million previously.
日经中文网表示，到12月月底，苹果公司只能发出2000万部iPhone X，而其先前的预估量为4000万部。
The constraint comes from trouble Apple's supplier is having manufacturing enough of the components used in the iPhone X’s new facial recognition tech. The report goes on to say that Apple is able to make only 10 million units per month.
苹果公司供货量的限制是因为其供应商的问题，为苹果公司供应新版面部识别功能配件的厂商无法为苹果提供足够的配件。该报告还指出，苹果公司每月只能生产1000万部iPhone X。

在一次参访中，被问及有关库存短缺的传言是否属实，以及苹果公司将如何应对客户需长时间等待的问题时，库克先生表示，“我们将静观其变。”
"But we'll be working as hard as possible to make as many as possible," he continued.“
但是我们会尽可能地努力工作以便生产出尽可能多的iPhone X，”他继续说道。
