iPhone would be in the national production at the Foxconn plant in Sao Paulo - Tecnoblog (Blog)

some time now we have the promise of a local production of iPhones . The President Roussef went to China to talk with the president of Foxconn and returned full of good news, including the production of iPads also on the label “made in Brazil” on the back. But it goes on which foot? Reporters iPhone Blog, Cult of Mac and Mac + magazine say they have confirmed that the iPhone is in the national manufacturing process.

Foxconn factory in which the iPhone is NOT done

After visiting a factory of Foxconn Jundiaí, in São Paulo , the group states categorically that there is in the building whose facade indicates the presence of the company Global Jundiaí, the smartphone desired shape and win the world prepares to reach the Brazilian market.

Gizmodo Brazil had already raised the ball to the production of what is being called the iPhone “national.” On one occasion, the Pedro Burgos , chief editor of the site, told me that the forecast was for an iPhone 4 (not 4S) costing somewhere between $ 1,100 and $ 1,200. Today, the iPhone 3G is sold unlocked in the TIM for $ 999 – lowest prices per iPhone sold officially by an operator in the country, to my knowledge.

“Global Jundiaí” Here, the iPhone is made in accordance with Ilex

Interview

visit to the nearby factory of Foxconn happened on Tuesday. I spoke with Alessandro Salvatori , the iPhone Blog ilex on the saga. Read below.

Tecnoblog – You saw someone using iPhone or iPhone 4S 4

ilex – No. What has to realize is that those who work there really do not understand the difference between normal cell and smartphone. And people in which we interviewed are not as tuned in tech news or Apple, but would not have spoken so much to us.

And

effectively entered the factory

No.

The factory is impenetrable, only those who actually work on the production line can get, after a strict control on the input and output (double iron gates are, where are the securities that are not a lot of talk). We were on the outside, covering employees who leave.

What you learned?

asked about what was done at the factory there. iPhone and iPad were cited by name. The smartphone is already in production and it seemed that the iPad is still uncertain, but all are waiting to happen (I believe it is the expected investment).

Besides

nurse, did you talk with someone else who was Foxconn

talked to a worker (badge and everything), but he only said they were being built “mobile” there, without knowing the name. It was another woman who ensured that the two sheds were 100% dedicated to Apple.

What is “Global Jundiaí” the facade

It

who rents the sheds. We suspect that the fact that Foxconn has not changed the facade and left the name of Global Jundiaí was in order not to draw attention to the factory. After all, they have started production even though it officially has not yet been opened.
