The iPhone SE model will sell like hotcakes. Hopefully, we get a new re-design. I also mentioned better to wait for the new updated color of the iPhone 14 Pro/Pro Max.
Perhaps Tim Cook will grace us with a comment on this news? He's got to be pleased that the "unrest" is over and production can return to normal.
Foxconn is hiring replacements for those that didn't appreciate their jobs. /sHe sure didn't have much to say the last time he was asked about China, wonder why?

Bad, people are being abused and apple only cares about making items? Did they talk to locate governments? this is only making people more upset seeing this. Forcing people to go back to work has no real answer to the problem. Let's call them iPhone 15BLOOD PM. this is bad!
Next iPhone SE won't be coming until March of 2024.
New re-design? The SE has always used a prior model's body. The next SE is expected to re-use the XR body.
I just hope Apple keeps the SIM card slot in it and doesn't fill that space with a plastic spacer. If there's a SIM slot, it will be a buy for me and will serve as my new travel phone to countries that don't yet fully support eSIM.

Well, THAT'S comforting. I have every confidence that China's government has as its first and highest priority the wellbeing of their people. In fact, it's been shown that they've moved many muslims to camps for the sole purpose of being able to care for them more effectively!
The medical emergency that the world has moved on from, and learned to live with, yet the CCP still thinks it can control the spread.
The logical reason is over the years this particular factory has built up the capability of producing hundreds of millions of iPhones a year. Some experience, imo, not easy to replace.
Is it different anywhere else? And if so, how?
That could happen anywhere and it has.
They’ve got it down so that anyone off the street with no experience can assemble iPhones with a few days of training.
Put this screw in that hole and tighten. Put this screw in that hole & tighten. Put this screw in that hole and…
That’s what I was thinking as well and they miss the holiday sales here. No wonder Apple is looking for manufacturing outside China.
Hopefully the Chinese people are successful in forcing change from their government, though realistically they probably won’t 🙁
It means it's way past time for Apple to get out of China due to many obvious reasons. Come on, Apple!
I have strong opinions on the despots running Russia and China but probably should just leave it as saying I agree with you - but remain mildly optimistic.
Good to know. But Apple should still rapidly increase production of devices in other countries.
Maybe you can suggest an exit strategy, because it seems according to many apple in this regard is incompetent.
