Dupa lansarea iPhone 5, Apple a cerut companiei Foxconn sa intareasca masurile de verificare a iPhone-urilor produse in Asia, totul dupa ce utilizatorii au inceput sa se planga de faptul ca benzile laterale ale terminalelor incepusera sa se zgarie. Intre timp Apple a crescut productia de terminale, insa la jumatatea lunii martie intre 5 si 8 milioane de terminale ar fi fost returnate catre Foxconn. Dispozitivele fie aveau probleme de functionare, fie nu indeplineau standardele de functionare ale Apple, iar Foxconn ar fi pierdut aproape 200 de milioane de dolari din cauza aceasta.
The Taipei based Chain Business Daily is reporting today that their sources are saying that 5 to 8 million iPhones were returned from Apple on March 15 because they were either malfunctioning or didn’t meet Apple’s standards in terms of appearance. The number of faulty iPhones has reached 8 million units, the report said, citing the Foxconn source. The report also said it will cost Hon Hai 1 billion (US$161.8 million) to 1.6 billion Chinese yuan to repair the defective handsets.
Pentru noi vestea este buna deoarece Apple are grija ca in magazine ajung numai dispozitive care se apropie de perfectiune, insa stim cu totii ca asa ceva nu exista.
