Tony D Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 They've been product-sourcing heavily out of China. I would really like to see what their Warranty Numbers did.... Bummer.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socorob Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 I had 1 box last 1 day and the replacement lasted about 2 weeks. I think both we're Chinese ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkspeed Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 Well my Chinese sourced Ipad and Iphone work just fine. Anyway, I hope they pull through and continue to develop products. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony D Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 The Management Style and Quality System in place at Foxxcon is a bit Atypical in China at this point. I regularly meet with a sourcer in the Business Lounge at Pudong that did work with MSD and several other large component part makers...the stories were interesting. Having to support Foxxconn as one of our largest customers (they use A LOT of air!) I see the operation firsthand as a guy working backstage in basic utilities. I can tell you what kind of mindset a company has when I work in their physical plant. Foxxcon is atypical in China, trust me on that!

clarkspeed Posted September 30, 2013 Share Posted September 30, 2013 I agree, and will not even begin to elaborate on my Chinese contracts. Atypical yes, but impossible to procure there, no. Although everyone still underestimates the time and investment required, MSD's problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
