A defect in the production of the new ICE4 chip has been discovered, which may affect the launch of the SlimFon4 product. The assembly line has been shut down to correct the flaw and is expected to be operational in about six working days. All shipments made between October 1st and October 30th are affected. The defective units will be replaced and re-shipped at no cost.
Pear, Inc. expresses gratitude for the prompt notification of the defective chip. However, the delay in installing the new ICE4 chip will result in a significant delay in the SlimFon4 product launch. An updated timetable for the delivery of the new chip is requested. The original product launch scheduled for the middle of December may be affected.
Mr. Matsunaga is concerned about the exact problem with the new chips and the delivery time. The size, capacity, and cost of replacing the new chips are not mentioned. NUiX has taken action to correct the problem by shutting down the assembly line temporarily to address the flaw.
