Pegatron has declined to comment on whether they will be supplying the iPhone 5, although there are reports that a number of companies have already started shipping parts for the iPhone 5 to Pegatron.
The sources pointed out that as the iPhone 5, which does not seem to have any major update from iPhone 4, is already set for shipment in September, they are already started supplying components to Pegatron with Pegatron’s plants in Shanghai, China also recently started hiring for manpower.
