On November 7, Foxconn CEO Terry Gou said that because of the huge market demand for iPhone 5, Hon Hai Precision could hardly meet the production requirements. Gou Taiming said that "it is not easy to produce iPhone, and we cannot meet the huge market demand." In addition, a senior executive of Foxconn said last month that the reason for the tight supply of iPhone 5 is that its design is too complex, which affects the assembly speed. He also said that the iPhone 5 is the most difficult device for Foxconn to assemble. Previously, ifixit said after disassembling the iPhone 5 that it is the most easily disassembled iPhone in history. It is difficult to assemble and easy to disassemble. This is the iPhone 5!
