After Apple iPhones, AirPods will be Manufactured in India
The Indian IT ministry has announced that Apple’s wireless earphones AirPods are set to be manufactured in India. This comes close on the heels of iPhone 14 series’ impending manufacture by December at Foxconn‘s facility near Chennai. The move was confirmed by IT minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, who said that the Cupertino-based firm would begin producing AirPods locally. Less than three weeks after unveiling the latest iPhone series, Apple had announced that iPhone 14 would be made in India. Apple had locally begun assembling smartphones in India back in 2017, but until 2022, the firm has used the country’s manufacturing facilities to assemble older generation handsets. The locally produced iPhone 14 will be made available for both Indian market and exports. According to a report, Apple had worked with suppliers to ramp up manufacturing in India and shorten the lag with China in production from the typical six to nine months for its previous launches. “The new iPhone 14 lineup introduces groundbreaking new technologies and important safety capabilities. We’re excited to be manufacturing the iPhone 14 in India,” said Apple in a statement. The company works with three partners: Wistron, Foxconn, and Pegatron to assemble iPhone models in the country.
