LOL, never dealt with China manufacturing huh? I'd assume you're not foolish enough to compare the plants making things FOR Apple, vs the knockoff shops that are selling displays for $80.
If I buy components I buy extra and test them myself before use. I don't buy anything used that I can get new and I test before I use. Now my hobbies seldom require me to play with surface mount, and i don't need displays for anything, but I'm plenty familiar with ordering from one end of the QC department or the other. All that said, you have a far higher opinion of Apple than I do.
No sure what you're basing anything of that on, my opinion of Apple is that they suck shit. None of that has anything to do with their products are made right and with quality, vs cut rate shit that breaks constantly.
I've owned two things produced by them. Both were trash out of the box, but perhaps I got "Monday " built devices both times. One came to me as a gift one I bought because my kid asked for it. Both were returned and I have not looked at an apple product since. My only experience is that they are knock offs of themselves and at their price point someone should be ashamed of themselves. My opinion of your opinion stands downvote me again if you want.
