It seems that Apple decided to do the same saying that it does not put all its eggs in one basket, which is why it is considering having more than one supplier and instead of the entire manufacturing and production process in China, there will be another plant in the second largest market in the world.
What's the story
According to sources familiar with the matter, Apple is working to diversify its production base outside China, so the two largest suppliers of Apple, Foxconn and Westerun, will transfer 20% of iPhone production from China to India over the next five years.
This step comes from Apple in order to reduce its increasing dependence on China in the manufacture of the iPhone, as the American company is trying to have more than one presence to produce large quantities of the iPhone without any delay or delay in the next production process. Read an article (The genius of Apple and the phenomenon of the success of the iPhone 11To find out why India in particular.
It is expected that the Apple factory in India will manufacture iPhone devices with a value of up to 40 billion dollars, 1.5 billion dollars will be sold in the Indian markets, and the rest of the other iPhones (valued at 38.5 billion dollars) will be exported until they are sold in other markets. External.
Apple and the Indian market
The Indian market is the second largest in the world after the Chinese market, and Apple has a small share in the Indian market at the present time, and some iPhone models are currently manufactured in India, such as the iPhone XR, while the production of the iPhone 7 and iPhone has been stopped. IPhone 6s and iPhone SE there.
During the recent period, Apple has succeeded in achieving some success in the Indian market, and according to a report issued by the market research firm IDC, Apple was able to acquire a 62.7% share of the smart phone market in India during its last quarter.
Why the Indian market
Not only is it the second largest market in the world after China, but there are some reasons that make the Indian market a suitable place for Apple and include the production-related incentives program provided by the government and provides many advantages that Apple can benefit from during the coming period.
Some reports predict that smart phone exports in India will surpass the number of 100 billion units during the year 2025 and the decision to transfer 20% of Apple's production will greatly enhance the growth of the smart phone market, and the manufacture of the iPhone in India will reduce its price there and thus will be able to compete with phones. The other smartphones, where the price is the main factor that determines the sales of phones in India, which is why companies such as Xiaomi and Redmi have a great reputation there.
We cannot ignore the point of the Corona virus outbreak and the problems it caused in China's supply chains, which is why the need for diversification was a necessity from Apple.
Finally, the economic war between America and China could make Apple a victim of the decisions that will be launched by the two countries. Therefore, moving some production units away from China is a wise decision for the American company.

Underestimating some countries in general is not good for companies such as Microsoft and Google patents
There is no competence in collecting and experience after China
The most important thing is that the prices are really affordable, because price times reach more than $ XNUMX
A good step from Apple, and it knows what it does, and the issue of removing China from the issue of manufacturing completely, in my opinion, is excluded because it is simply possible for China to close its market that generates billions on Apple and deprive it of it (the topic is reasonable room to explain in a comment)
There will be an agreement, and we Arabs, we only have to pay اش cash and buy products
🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
The wise decision is to annihilate China's hegemony and support competitive countries
Oh God, I am fasting 📿

Apple knows and I know if this is in its interest and its efficiency is high, then I do not mind
There is no technology with high efficiency such as America, China, Japan, Germany and other European countries. India has different technologies, but it is not comparable to developed European countries in all fields.
You are like you sleep in honey ,,, Indians are controlling the technology sector in America and Britain ,,, I am looking for the leaders of the giant companies, the first of which is Microsoft, and you will know that most of them are Indians, whether by nationality or origin. And the Android programmer is an Indian ,, and the YouTube programmer is their cousin of Native or Indian origin, see the statistic of Indians in the technology sector and you will be surprised
Your words are not correct and there are no sources
Glad I learn the style of polite dialogue and the Almighty I speak your style is very bad and does not rise to this prestigious site
Do not expect that Apple will completely shift production in India ... because the labor of US technology is as skilled as the Chinese labor
I mean, a number of courses are required
Unless Apple previously studied it and it is one of its training plans
just an opinion!
The question that arises is, which are we, the Gulf and Arab countries, from this manufacturing share, we have all the industrial, commercial, logistical, and political geographic potentials between the continents.
This wonderful iPhone will be close to the Arabian Gulf, it is something special, the iPhone will be cheap
I hope so 🌚
The last two points. The article is the most important of the two. The time is now .. Anyway, I think it is a good decision .. Thanks for the article
Certainly, I wish it was launched from all eastern and Asian countries and is heading for industrialization in Europe. Because it will become the iPhone, I heard it fold twice. In Eastern Europe there are workers willing to work for half the wages of Chinese and Indian workers. But America's first and last goal is to destroy the European economy. Because Europe is the only competitor to America and the first enemy of China.
God bless you, Jabbar analysis 🌝
Apparently hunger is very influential
