Apple Customers Demand Replacement Product after iPhone X Malfunctions from Assembly Error

Szechuan, CHINA - Angry Apple customers have demanded replacement products from the tech giant, after the first batch of iPhone Xs malfunctioned due to poor assembly.

The iPhone X, Apple Corporation's flagship product released on 3 November 2017, has not exactly experienced a smooth launch.

It is reported that the first batch of iPhone Xs, preordered months in advance by the most die-hard iSheep Apple fans, are faulty due to a manufacturing error.

A DNA test revealed that the blood and sweat of a 6-year-old Chinese boy, which had become embedded within the phone during assembly, caused the phones to malfunction.

"I'm honestly *&^%ing disgusted to find out that some filthy Asian kid touched my $1500 phone," said Jack Mirrodin, who took a week off work to camp out and be first in line to buy the iPhone X.

Sources say the entire first batch of iPhone Xs released to developed countries such as the United States and Australia all suffer the same issue.

Customers have now demanded that Apple provide "clean" copies of the iPhone X that haven't been handled by child slave workers.

A spokesperson for the tech giant says it will consider using Caucasian child slaves in future, if there is enough demand for it, and "will assess the viability of these changes on profit margins."

8-year-old Chinese Artisan Watchmaker Wins Employee of the Year Award, Youngest Ever

BREAKING NEWS - Shanghai, China An 8-year-old Chinese artisan watchmaker has been posthumously awarded Employee of the Year by watch company Daniel Wellington, the youngest staff member to ever do so.

Siu Pang Yau, born in 2009, has been praised by the owners of the Daniel Wellington (DW) fashion watch brand for his work ethic and commitment to product quality.

Despite dying on the job from being overworked, Siu Pang was remembered and honoured in a statement from the watchmakers earlier this month.

The 8-year-old, who has been living and working in one of DW's factories since 2016, was headhunted from his primary school playground for his extensive work experience in sweatshop conditions.

Originally destined for a rough school life of chasing A-pluses and perfect report cards, DW offered Siu Pang a lucrative career in watchmaking.

Sources report the child assembled over 25,000 watches during his tenure at DW, which earned the corporation nearly US$5-million.

"I think [Siu Pang]'s accomplishments will definitely inspire the other children in our factories to learn the value of hard work," a spokesman for DW said.

Although he was fresh out of kindergarten, Siu Pang had an impressive reputation from age 4 - including holding the world record for the fastest assembly of an Apple iPhone 6 Plus, back when he allegedly interned for the California-based tech giant at their Beijing factory.

DW plans to commemorate Siu Pang's passing with a limited edition Daniel Wellington SP (Siu Pang) watch, for only US$400, a modest mark-up from the actual cost of parts ($5).
