Chinese news site Commercial Times has claimed that iPhone supplier Wistron was caught using ‘unauthorized components’ in its production of the iPhone 8 Plus in China.
The report says that Apple ordered the company to halt production when the issue came to light, with assembly suspended for two weeks …
Digitimes reports that Wistron has issued a partial denial.
Wistron maintained in a filing with the Taiwan Stock Exchange March 15 that the company will not comment on matters concerning specific clients and there was not a “two-week production suspension as reported and operations remain completely normal.”
