Apple having problems with their slave labour plants

devalara44 oh dear, a bit of a glitch in their planned obsolescence through marketing upgrades people don't actually need.... I wonder how many older phones will NOT go to landfill as a result of reduced volumes of new ones sold/produced....

OMG I hope we don't all die from having too few iPhones in the shop.

Lol breaking news?

Sorry what? Where are their heartfelt condolences for the Chinese people battling a pandemic, being locked down and silenced? Boycott Apple.

The reliance on China will tell over the next few months

I’ve had my iPhone 698S for over a fortnight now, I want the 699S 20” screen with internal microwave and I want it now 😭.

Say it isn't so!!!!! Wtf!

Does this mean Chinese made stuff is no longer a security threat 😂

Ooh. The world's going to end.

How is this even news ffs

Got one...

Oh, they know that we are asking for 1TB, finally!! And icloud shoud be free for more GB 🤣🤣

Apple

Good.

But Apple are American and their phones are so safe and secure. And getting your tech from China is a security risk.

BULLSHIT... THERE IS NO IPHONE SHORTAGE... APPLE JUST CAN'T INTRODUCED ANY NEW VERSION OF THEIR PHONES COMING SPRINGS FOR SUMMER SALES... THEY ALREADY HAVE SURPLUS IPHONE ON THE MARKET

I’m sure we’ll cope.

So no apple a day because the doctors away?

I understand that the Chinese New year was extended in many parts of China...

Oh flûte !

Oh, no! That means the trend zombies will have to keep their same iPhone, the one that still works just fine but isn't the latest and coolest.

🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️🤷🏽‍♂️

Thank Christ...

Publicity stunt to drive up stock prices.

And y’know... dead human beings...
