Snap didn’t make enough Pixy drones, but won’t say how many it made

The earliest buyers of the new flying camera were told they would have to wait three months to get it. We think that the company didn't make enough because they extended the shipping time for the drones to four months.

Is the Pixy selling well? It's possible, but it's more likely that they didn't make that many. In the past, Snap lost over 40 million dollars when it made too many pairs of Spectacles, but the CEO of the company suggested that it underestimated how many would be needed.

The people who bought the drones are going to have to wait. The first people to buy the Pixy won't see it for weeks, according to an email.

It won't be a surprise to buyers that the shipping window on the website was 11 to 12 weeks. If you purchase one today, you will have a longer wait time. The Pixy isn't made-to-order, according to Keusder. It takes a long time to get a small stockpile to your door.

How small? The company did not tell us how many drones it made. We can start to guess how popular the Pixy will be.
