Bloomberg is reporting that Apple's iPhone 5 production is slowing, as it attempts to cut the number of devices shipped with nicks and scratches by improving aluminum quality control at Foxconn. It's only natural for aluminum to scuff and scratch, and putting a phone together offers plenty of opportunities for it to happen - but in reality, phones shouldn't be shipped in a state where they're already damaged. Clearly Apple realizes that.
Currently the quality clampdown means fewer of the phone's metal housings are being approved for use - to the extent that Foxconn even had to halt production for a day at one factory Shenzhen.
