Foxconn is the sole assembler of the 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus. It also makes
the majority of the iPhone 6 that comes with a 4.7-inch display, the people
said.
“We have been churning out 140,000 iPhone 6 Plus and 400,000 iPhone 6 every
day, the highest daily output ever, but the volume is still not enough to
meet the preorders,” said a person familiar with the matter.
“For iPhone 6 Plus, we are still ramping up the production line. Another
reason for the limited supply is the shortage of 5.5-inch displays,” said
the person.
The output rate of 5.5-inch is still only around 50%-60%, which means
display makers have to scrap almost half of the substandard output, said a
person at a display component supplier.
