Summary

Apple is moving its iPhone production from China to India under a deal with manufacturers like Foxconn and Tata, aiming to finish by 2026. This move would nearly double its output in the U.S., offering an escape from tariffs imposed by the Trump administration on Chinese imports. However, concerns about rising costs and infrastructure challenges could delay the plan, which Apple might spend up to $30-$40 billion on.
