Apple Taking Action After Students Worked Overtime to Assemble iPhone X at Foxconn

The republicans will get us there in time.

From reading your product list I think you should have used “WE” not “Their or they or them”

I do own quite a bit of their products but I don't buy into their BS. I am also very outspoken on here and quite hard on apple most of the time because i think they have truly lost their touch. They are getting very sloppy. I do not feel their are very innovative and they lag their competition in hardware WAY TOO OFTEN. As such I call them out on it. I am always wanting apple to make better products and I'm usually disappointed because their all too high margins come at the expense of releasing products that could be even better and have a Wow or X factor. The iPhone X does not have it!!!

Yeah, like Apple "didn't know" this was going on. They never questioned how those Foxconn iPhone X shipping times improved so dramatically in a few short weeks? Please.

Typical. Foxconn violates labor law (and takes the hit for Apple). Apple swoops in, publicly stops the practice and looks like the hero.

Tim Cook's claim to fame was being the master of the supply chain. He knows exactly what is going on at all times with that side of the business. Don't be fooled.

This is basically Apple "outing" the problem before the media got to it. Damage control at it's finest.

I agree. Totally "fake" action. It’s practically like a fictional play. If Apple REALLY wanted to take care of the "problem" then they’d make the phones here in the USA and pay people good wages and benefits. Period. Of course, grumpy ass, miserable shareholders would have a hissy fit. God forbid they only made eleventy million billion instead of thirteen billion million.

Anyone that "falls" for this is a pure sucker. Apple knows very well exactly what’s going on all the time.

Those Chinese employees should only work every other day. More exhausted workers means worse quality control and higher defects. You pay those employees peanuts and expect the assembly line will be perfect when they won't.

Buyers should also stop buying more phones. Lessen their workload. Exhaustion = less efficiency. And people in the States complain their jobs when it's only 40 hrs per week. Try 60-80 hrs working 6 days per week.

I don't have the slightest problem with someone working overtime if it's voluntary and they are paid appropriately.

Apple's policy is stupid.

OK you agree with all the posts about evil Apple and their outdated products. May I ask how many Apple products you currently own or have owned?

If you don’t have any Apple products why are you posting on this blog? Yes it’s a free and mostly open web site and you can state any opinion you’d like.

You should have looked at my sig for your answer. I have some listed. I actually own more than in my sig.

I’m not sure what you’re writing about. But I did look at your profile page and at least from my iPhone safari app I still don’t see any apple products.

Sorry

In was in reply to a post you made earlier quoting me. You were wondering if I owned apple devices because I was criticizing apple earlier in this thread. Look at anything I post on the board and you can see some of the devices I own under every post.

Got it now.

It’s that bar below the dashed line.

Why don’t you just switch to non-apple products, what’s keeping you here in so much angst?
