Xiaomi said assembling a smartphone from circuit board to finished product takes about six seconds, and, at full capacity, the factory could produce more than 10 million devices annually
There are ~30 million seconds in a year. So this factory is only producing 2 phones at a time? Assuming the article is accurate, I’m very curious to hear why this was chosen as a design

I’m assuming there must be downtime for maintenance and quality checks.
Especially since it says 11 production lines…
11 lines = 57.8 million
57.8/~10 means their lines are down 38.5% of the time?!?!?
Edit: Maybe the nearly 40% downtime is retooling for different models?
