Apple is considering having Foxconn assemble iPads in India
Even after the price cut, iPhone models are very expensive in India. For example, the iPhone 15 Pro, the lowest-priced iPhone model that will receive Apple Intelligence later this year, is priced in the U.S. at $990. In India, the very same phone will cost $1,550 or 55% more.
While we haven’t heard much lately about Apple’s plan to diversify production out of China, moving some iPad production to India means that Apple is feeling more confident in the supply chain it has built in the area, and moving out of China is possibly still a long term goal for Apple.
