A series of photos shows off the original iPhone production back in 2007.
A series of photos have popped up on the internet that gives us a look at the original iPhone coming together at one of Apple s factories back in 2007.
Bob Burrough, one of the co-creators of the iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and the inventor Apple Taptic Engine, posted a series of photos to Twitter that showcase the production and testing of the original iPhone at its factory back in the spring of 2007. Photos from the iPhone factory, spring 2007.

Rather than actual assembly, the photographs seem to show quality assurance and testing taking place, complete with shelves of iPhones connected with wires in a mass testing rack. One shot shows test software running on units, while another has employees connecting individual iPhones up to testing equipment for final checks.
Given its original introduction by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in January 2007 and its release months later in June, the declared spring timing for the photographs suggests that Foxconn was either close to starting full production, or had already reached it. At the time, Apple wouldn t have had the same level of supply chain control as it exerts now, so assembly and shipments were likely to have taken far longer.
