However, it was all the rage that resulted in the website has changed its sales model from selling the second-hand iPhone online into face-to-face, physical sales on April 25, but the authorized stores and when will it hit the market have not been confirmed yet.

At the same time, iPhone users in China can recycle their used models to the 18 Apple stores to get the coupon subject to getting discount of new iPhone 6. Furthermore, Apple collected those old handsets, and gave it to Foxconn in a bid to fix it and sell it through Foxconn authorized stores with one-year warranty.

Moreover, Foxconn joined hands with Apple China on its “reuse and recycling program” also in light of making the best use of its manpower. Foxconn has hired a lot of employees for assembling iPhone 6, and even Quanta Computer borrowed employees from Foxconn that proves the problem of overabundance manpower.
