iPhone 9 si iPhone X Plus will be launched in the fall of this year together with a new model of iPhone X, but until then Foxconn, the largest manufacturer of iPhones for Apple, initiated a massive hiring campaign. In general, those from Foxconn hire several hundred thousand people every summer to support iPhone production at Apple's request, and in July they already started the procedures to ensure the necessary employees in the factories.
iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus motivated the Foxconn company to offer bonuses of up to 300 dollars for employees who renew their contracts this summer to participate in the manufacture of the new phone models. Those from Foxconn are currently offering these bonuses for the factory in Zhengzhou, China, and this means that it is very possible that the vast majority of iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus phones for the Apple company will be manufactured there.
iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus: MASSIVE hiring at Foxconn
iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus will be available in much larger quantities than iPhone X, the Apple company having extremely big problems with the sales of the phone because there was a much higher demand than the supply. For 2018, the Apple company does not want to go through the same problems, so iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus will go into production much earlier, and Foxconn will have enough employees to ensure the production needs for the coming months.
"Foxconn Electronics (Hon Hai Precision Industry) is offering extra bonuses in its bid to hire more workers for its plants in Zhengzhou, China, to manufacture the next-generation iPhones. Foxconn is offering one-off bonuses of up to CNY2,000 (US$295) for workers renewing their contracts.”
iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus should be produced in several tens of millions of units by the end of the year, some analysts' estimates talk about more than 50 million phones that Foxconn would produce. Having said that, the launch of iPhone 9 and iPhone X Plus is fast approaching, so we only have to see the phones officially presented by the Apple company, and what will be the final novelties offered.
