The Chinese and Apple

The world of technology has been talking about the tension between Google-based technology giant Google and China-based Huawei for some time. After Google’s decision, many more technology giants have blacklisted Huawei.There was a lot of speculation about what this could mean for iPhones. Although Apple’s smartphones are currently manufactured in China by Foxconn, this may change in the coming period.Because the US-based technology giant China supplier Foxconn announced that iPhone production can be made outside of China.Underlining that 25 percent of the production capacity is currently outside China, the company said changes can be made in line with Apple’s request. Foxconn’s long working hours and insufficiency of workplace security conditions have been the subject of news several times before.

Foxconn’s factory in China, where 1 of every 2 iPhones are produced, was viewed by Business Insider. Taiwan-based Foxconn is a global supply company offering assembly services for many electronics manufacturers, including Apple.If you’re an iPhone or iPad user, the device you’re using is 50 per cent likely built in this facility. The company has been under pressure from the international human rights organization and the press for years, due to the working conditions in its mills where thousands of workers work and the mistreatment of workers.
