Apple Expands iPhone Production in India
According to multiple Indian media reports, Apple is increasing iPhone production at five factories in India, including new facilities from Tata and Foxconn. All models of the iPhone 17 will be produced in India before their release next month. This marks Apple's first time achieving localized production of the entire series, including Pro, in India. Moreover, over the next two years, Tata will take on half of India's iPhone production.
[Clever] Comment: Starting with the iPhone 17 series, Americans may only be able to purchase iPhones made in India, but behind this lies a complex situation. Recently, US-India relations have hit a stalemate. Trump openly criticized India's economy as "dead" and increased the overall tariff rate to 50% by citing India's import of Russian oil. Additionally, he became dissatisfied with India's denial of his "mediation" in the India-Pakistan conflict. The subtle changes in US-India relations are undoubtedly a "surprise" for Apple, which is fully expanding its presence in India, and the future development remains uncertain.
