TREE NEWS update: Apple COO Sabih Khan visited Foxconn’s Zhengzhou campus in Henan on Oct. 11, touring the iPhone Duo production line’s key processes, the iPhone 18 Pro rear camera module line, the chassis anodizing workshop and the SoC wafer-level sputtering shop. The visit came on the eve of pre-orders for Apple’s first foldable phone, as the company said it is expanding production capacity.
Apple COO Visits Foxconn Zhengzhou Ahead of iPhone Duo Pre-Orders
AI take
The COO's presence on the factory floor the day before pre-orders open is a supply-chain signal, not a photo op: Apple is putting executive weight behind a foldable launch at a site already running the iPhone 18 Pro camera and SoC lines. That matters for Foxconn's Zhengzhou workforce and for component suppliers tied to the new chassis and camera modules. Whether the expanded capacity translates into smooth launch-week availability, or the usual early allocation squeeze, is the open question to watch.
