The delay is just from Q3 to Q4, which neatly fits into the previous rumors of a push back from September to October. Broadcom’s CEO Hock Tan is quotes as saying he expects a “major product cycle delay” at a “large North American mobile phone” customer (this is how the company typically refers to Apple). Later report in Bloomberg features quotes from Broadcom, which supplies wireless technology for iPhones. Apple’s WWDC is still due to be held in June but will have “an all-new online format.” The Journal confirmed reports that Apple will be launching four new iPhone models this year with 5G support.

The pandemic has already shifted Apple’s spring release plans, with a purported March event being canceled and the iPad Pro and iPhone SE receiving quite unveilings. However, Apple has previously delayed iPhone on-sale dates due to production issues, most recently with the iPhone XR releasing in late October. Sources told the publication that the pandemic has weakened global consumer demand and disrupted manufacturing across Asia, which should delay the new phone by “about a month,” bringing it into October rather than its usual September timeslot. The Wall Street Journal reported that the iPhone 12 will arrive later than usual this year.
That probably means an October ship date, but let’s not rule out a possible November date. In the past, Apple shipped new iPhone models in late September, but this year, Apple COO Luca Maestri said that the phone shipment will occur “a few weeks” later. Third-quarter 2020 financial results, Apple said that the iPhone release this year will occur later than usual.
