- iPhone 5S Production at 500K Phones a Day

Foxconn operates on 100 production lines 24/7 to make 500,000 iPhone 5S's each and every day, according to a recent post by the Wall Street Journal. Each phone is made by the combined work of 600 people. This is supposedly the maximum capacity for the plant, and Foxconn fears any additional capacity could lose future Apple contracts to one of their competitors.
