Elon Musk tried to automate every aspect of production of Tesla car, then had to admit that humans are irreplaceable. He gave up on all-aspect automation - there are far too many small components that tiny human hands are more adept to than robots. Actually, disassembling an iPhone a few times, I would agree, these are very intricate and fragile tiny pieces/cables everywhere.
