However, a recent report suggests that interns at a Chinese Foxconn plant claim that a portion of first available PlayStation 4 consoles were purposefully sabotaged during the manufacturing process.
According to a new report from Neowin, interns from a Foxconn plant in Yantai, China sabotaged the PS4 during manufacturing because they felt they were being mistreated in the workplace.
I bet they were Microsoft fanboy plants, AMIRITE?

Probably a good thing only 10% of Xbox One's are being assembled at Foxconn.

Ohh yeah?
"well I just read an article written by another Sony cult follower, that stated for a fact, that 33.2% of all Xbox One's will be defective Day 1.
No, of course I don't have a link. hundreds of other articles have already said the same exact thing. old news."

And that is how you are able to use higher-spec hardware and sell it for $100 less than the competition. Someone pays for it. But it's Foxconn. Their workers have always been treated like shite, and they are an OEM for pretty much every hardware vendor on the planet. Usually, worker retaliation comes in the form of simply stealing IP and selling knock-offs.

That's a very good point. It's the same thing that apple does except they still charge a premium
