As the coronavirus continues to spread, the impact the virus continues to have on the tech industry is pronounced. Just yesterday, for example, the GSMA canceled this year’s Mobile World Congress, with GSMA CEO John Hoffman noting that the virus all but made it “impossible” to proceed with the biggest mobile trade show of the year.
What’s more, the coronavirus may also have an impact on Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 12. As we detailed last week, the coronavirus prompted Apple to stop sending engineers to China to participate in Engineering Validation Tests (EVT). As a point of reference, EVT is one step below Design Validation Testing (DVT) which comes into play when Apple firmly nails down the exact iPhone design and features it plans to ship to consumers.
