Foxconn, the key iPhone manufacturer, studied the process of shipping components from China and assembling the iPhone 14 at a plant near Chennai. Apple and Foxconn determined a simultaneous start in India and China isn’t realistic this year, though it remains a long-term goal.

A portion of Apple’s iPhones have been manufactured in India since 2017, but it’s always been a bit of an afterthought compared with Chinese production.

Apple is preparing to manufacture its new iPhone 14 in India months earlier than it did previous models, sign it’s boosting production outside China where Covid-related shutdowns and geopolitical tensions have raised risks for foreign businesses. https://t.co/DE3Y1n7fpK

One challenge in narrowing the cap of India production is secrecy. Apple goes to extreme lengths to keep new product details confidential, and imposing the same rigorous controls in a second country would prove difficult.https://t.co/PFQkxEtH5a

Your new iPhone 14 - Made in India. “Apple and Foxconn ultimately determined a simultaneous start in India and China isn’t realistic this year, although it remains a long-term goal, said the people.” https://t.co/2r5NtfGmqM

Super interesting move. Apple gets the cover of China's COVID policies and summer heat lockdowns, but I'd bet they're saving a mint in labor costs and would have been looking to move no matter what. https://t.co/ehTPbLyz0T

"Matching China’s pace of iPhone production would [mark] a major milestone for India, which has been touting its attractiveness as an alternative at a time when rolling Covid lockdowns and US sanctions jeopardize China’s position as factory to the world." https://t.co/wC10M9Ohz6

Historically, it has taken six to nine months for Apple's India production to kick in after China. Apple is seeking alternatives to China as Xi Jinping’s administration clashes with the US government and imposes lockdowns across the country that have disrupted economic activity.
