Inside Apple's top secret iPhone factory: Tech giant provides a glimpse of huge Chinese plant where 50,000 pink-jacketed staff are subjected to facial recognition, metal detectors and daily roll calls

COMING TO A COUNTRY NEAR YOU VERY SOON

The floors are spotless i noticed. So obviously the work ethic is good all round.

I bet we couldn't organise this sort of operation, no wonder we don;t win these contracts

Me and my Chinese neighbour have fallen out, he thinks I took his wheelie bin and I misunderstood what he was asking me when he stormed round and said 'wheres me bin?' I said, 'erm, Hong Kong?' He shouted 'no, wheres me wheelie bin?' Confused, I said, 'dunnon mate if you wheelie bin to Hong Kong or not.'

I'm the first to become upset with sweatshop labour (especially child labour), but I don't see much wrong with this factory. Its clean and well lit, with a canteen. I'm sure the work is boring, but the conditions are much worse elsewhere.

secretive? i bet everyone in china knows how to make one.. if there ever was a country who has no respect for other's ip..

The food in the canteen is good if you like Chinese takeaways.

They don't look Happy, Apple's communist treatment

They look very unhappy bunnies, I dont have an apple anything and intend to keep it that way.

i work more hours and never get any form of break!

Kinda makes you think the recent refusal to assist the FBI based on "Morals" is a rather false statement when you see how these people are treated.

Moral looks at an all time high!! NOT. It wouldn't sell if it wasn't Apple as the IP6 is rubbish!

If all you apple users on here who have read this and also have a CONSCIENCE and feel this is totally wrong ( look at the pictures on that wall, these are people who have possibly topped themselves because of making these phones in fact i would put money on it ), then return you apple products to the nearest apple store, YEAH !! thought not , because you cannot live without them, never mind the slaves that made them, this should be rthe screen saver on a apple phone, then watch sales dry up, saying that, i honestly doubt it !!, how would the selfie obsessed generation survive !!

A bit like inside the Honda factory in Swindon then. Pride!

This is outrageous, the EU should step in and stop this, so they are expected to arrive on time and perform the tasks the company pays them for? Let's all only purchase western manufactured goods from now on.....come on.....

supporting communism as always

China has become a Superpower. Can't wait until it shares land border with the EU.

it is called Apple boot camp

These Chinese workers remind me of drilled ants.
