This is makes sense, and is also how iOS can be so optimized for the hardware.
They lock down the hardware of the phone way early, giving them a lot of time to port/update the software and polish it like crazy.
I mean, they also have to figure out how to manufacture like 240 MILLION phones or roughly 1 every 130milliseconds.
The design is likely locked in around a year in advance, and the remainder of the year is spinning up production and actually manufacturing the phones.
