Foxconn explains why the production of iPhone 5 is more slow

Foxconn is the subcontracted company which dedicates a plant to assemble products from Apple, iPhone. iPhone 5 has been one of the iPhone but sold to date but it is also one of the iPhone with more lack of stock (I'm example, bought on September 28 and arrives October 29).

Sharp a few months ago announced that they would have some problems to meet the demand for screens although they subsequently warned that no longer had that problem and they could meet the demand. Why still delaying then?

iPhone 5 due to the miniaturization and precision of their manufacture requires increased mounting time and this is the reason why there is less stock available on the device. It has done so know a Foxconn Executive through The Wall Street Journal.
In addition it also means requiring a longer time to not make mistakes and workers pressure is greater, reason by which a few weeks ago is supposed a supposed strike of workers after Apple demand greater quality control result of early complaints that appeared damaged terminals or with minor problems such as the recent "loose" battery.

Foxconn: the iPhone 5 is the device that has more cost us to assemble

When Apple released the iPhone 5 last September 21, quickly became the iPhone that had been sold faster than ever. Not in vain, in the first weekend were sold no less than five million units.

However, it seems that since then sales have gone to braking slowly, up to the point at which currently sells quite well, but sales volume remains below what analysts predicted. Is its high price doing that many regular buyers of Apple to stay with your old iPhone?

Although it is partly true, the problem is not to do with that. Apparently, the issue is that Foxconn, the company commissioned to assemble with care and care all the iPhone 5 parts at their factories, not cope. In fact, its design and operation is so complex that the company has admitted that they face with the device more difficult to assemble in its history.

 

Imagine with the amount of problems that he has had to deal Foxconn to see desperation in the manufacture of the iPhone 5. In fact, already warned a few weeks of the strike of the workers of the company, due to them were pressing to make a precision work for which no had been properly formed.

The blame for all this is the extreme lightness and thinness of the terminal. It is reasonable to think that it takes quite some time to learn how to assemble the device correctly. Fortunately, according to a company release, productivity is increasing day by day thanks to the wisdom that acquire with experience.
