Apple announces manufacturing of iPhone 14 in India

Apple has announced the manufacturing of the iPhone 14 in India.

The Apple Inc. has said that the latest iPhone 14 will be manufactured in India. The top tech giant has been producing its products in China so far.

Apple has said in a statement, “The new iPhone 14 lineups introduce groundbreaking new technologies and important safety capabilities. We’re excited to be manufacturing iPhone 14 in India.”

Apple launched its latest model of flagship iPhone 14 earlier his month.

According to the company, the focus was on safety upgrades rather than flashy new technical specifications with the exception of a new adventure-focused watch.

Apple is expected to move around five percent of iPhone production to India, according to J.P Morgan.

India has been the second biggest smartphone market after China.

Morgan also predicted that by 2025, one out of four iPhones will be produced in India.

The company’s global partner Foxconn has been manufacturing the device in a facility near Chennai. The locally produced iPhone units will go on sale in the country later this year.

India has attracted investments from Apple manufacturing partners Foxconn and Wistron in recent years by offering lucrative subsidies as New Delhi moves to make the country a manufacturing hub.
