                First time ever last Q iPhone became best selling smartphone in India

                  Super Android 22, 17 Jan 2023So you're saying you're happy they are swapping t... moreBruh this isn't Twitter. Don't do the whole "So you're saying Y" when I just actually said X.

                  Where are you even from? You speak as if you know it all, but are you even from India to be able to make such bold claims? India ≠ China. We have laws here that do help. So keep your twisting of stories to yourself please

                    DroidBoye, 17 Jan 2023This is mostly due to cheap labor. Even Xiaomi is doing it ... moreAll Apple decision is for profit purposes. They're a greedy company. Yes, cost cutting is one reason. Chinese manufacturing cost has been in the rise, and the lockdowns were not helping. Another is to avoid the import duties (which won't be passed on to customers, it's to pad more profit for Apple).

                        DroidBoye, 17 Jan 2023This is mostly due to cheap labor. Even Xiaomi is doing it ... moreits all not about cheap labor but pluss corruption and discipline.

                          People who are happy about the news don't know the sheer quality difference between India and plants in other countries. I.e. Volvo, man, and Chinese phones

                            Anonymous, 17 Jan 2023Nah. Whatever they saved on labor would be lost ten fold t... moreYes with the help of corruption, companies will avoid tax and save more in return. Money is vicious circle my friend, no body is right or wrong

                              This is mostly due to cheap labor. Even Xiaomi is doing it to the point that their phones manufactured in India has issues specific only to Indian models.

                                        Go Block, 17 Jan 2023Plus apple still need to import many components from China.... moreBut eventually, there will be a demand for building a supply chain in India now that iPhones are being assembled here. For example, just recently, the supplier for iPhone camera sensors, Sunny Opotech announced that they will set up a camera manufacturing facility in India with an investment of $300 million. And Samsung does make OLED displays at their Noida plant in Uttar Pradesh, India. Soon, more suppliers will follow. It is just a matter of time.
