Foxconn manager indicted on theft, fraudulent iPhone sales
A Mr. Tsai may spend the next ten years in jail if he is found guilty of breach of trust — in this case, stealing iPhone 5 and 5s units from testing labs and selling them in the open market.
The defendant was a former senior manager at Foxconn, Apple’s top assembly partner for the iPhone, and was identified only as Tsai. He was indicted on Friday.
It is alleged that from 2013 to 2014, he delegated eight subordinates to acquire non-retail testing phones (as opposed to iPhone 7 metal casing shells) and sell them to stores in Shenzhen, China. The New Taipei District claims that Tsai made US$1.56 million from the scheme, said to span over 5,700 units.
Foxconn notified Taiwanese authorities about Tsai after an internal audit.
Labor and graft issues have plagued Foxconn, the largest contract technology products assembler in the world, over the years. Its massiveness doesn’t help but add to its perceived complacency: it has over one million employees on its payroll.

This may just be our first real look at the iPhone 5se (not 6c) next to the iPhone 5
It’s no longer a question of “if”, but rather “when” and, well, “what”. Also, “why”, for some people, although many feel there’s definitely still a market for a diminutive iPhone, especially if priced significantly below the 6s and 6s Plus.At only 4 inches in diagonal, you’d think that would absolutely be the case, yet it’s possible the iPhone 5se will borrow a number of features from the 6s duo, thus needing to charge compact handheld lovers an arm and a leg.Then again, anything’s possible at the ...

As a result smartphones have grown from less than 4-inches in size to an average rapidly approaching the 5-inch threshold.Apple is one of the very last to jump on the larger smartphone bandwagon. Its last increase in size was from a 3.5-inch display to a 4-inch display, adding only vertical dimension and pixels to the existing panel.That wasn’t enough, though.
