According to a Report, Apple is asking Foxconn to make Sapphire glass

Apple‘s Deal with GT Advanced Technologies for creating Sapphire displays for Apple’s iPhone 6 didn’t pan out right. And GT Advanced Technologies Canceled the deal when it was unable to fulfill needs of Apple. One of Fatal mistakes Apple won’t be repeating in the future. Just a week ago, a news came out that Apple is asking its longtime partner Foxconn to build an exclusive Manufacturing plant just for Apple for its displays. However, Foxconn didn’t say much about the plant, but it was confirmed that the Plant was being made for Apple to further enhance Apple Foxconn relation.

Just one week later, we are again hearing news that Apple is again reaching towards Foxconn. And now Foxconn is being asked to make Sapphire crystal glass for Apple in a quantity that Apple could use for its next generation iPhone. The Foxconn Company has made an agreement that they will create a 133 hectare Sapphire factory to fulfill this need. Now the interesting part is, even though Apple and Foxconn are partners for quite a long time, but still Foxconn has no experience in producing Sapphire. Meaning, if the rumor is right it would be interesting to see how Foxconn will manage to create enough Sapphire displays that could fulfill huge need of Apple which even GT Advanced Technologies with some experience in the field couldn’t handle. It says that GT Advanced was only able to make enough Sapphire displays that could fulfill 10% of Apple’s total order.
