In case you have wondered how some phones are made, it is alleged that workers are given just 32 seconds to assemble a mobile phone and 65 seconds for a television:
Perhaps more alarmingly, prosecutors claim that employees at Samsung's factories in the Amazon region are given just 32 seconds to assemble a mobile phone and 65 seconds to put together a Samsung television set. One worker is alleged to have packed as many as 3,000 phones in a day.

Up until now, I thought I needed an education to build electronics :lol:

I tried doing the math on how many hours it would take to build 3,000 phones. It is kind of amazing if you think about it.

What do they mean by assemble exactly?

I replaced my iPhone 5 screen and it took me about half an hour!
