All part of the strategy. They will triple iPhone sales, as well, once they drive Google out of the smartphone business.

Great to hear this. Hopefully Pro models are also manufacturerd in India.

Funny how this is stated, tripling productivity in india, is still only a factional amount from what is produced in China.

Apple is tied at the hip with china. That in the big picture, and that will not change.

but ya it makes headlines, just like this one.

I for one love these headlines. If you don't enjoy them I am sure there are other things to do than comment on them. And look, they gotta start somewhere; have some positive vibes!

Do you also wish for your new iPhone to cost an extra $800?

Do you wish for high unemployment for you or your fellow Americans? Remember it is not always about you!

You're right. But this truth won't be heeded.

Wish the headline said “apple wants to move all production to the United States”

Maybe one day we will see
Designed in California
Assembled in the USA
on our Apple devices but that day is not any time soon.

If that’s what it takes then I will gladly shell out another $800.
It’s not like I’m buying a new phone every year anyways. I’m keeping my current XR until it looses software support and I plan to do the same on my next iPhone.

Rubbish... Tesla makes its cars here, Boeing it's airplanes, etc... they don't cost 40% more than global competition.

Build the phones sold in the U.S. in the U.S.

American purchases should profit American workers.

Ya do it but then dont complain when there will be no buyers of Made in America products in outside world.
Do you know something called trade or not

And see that right there is the myth. The actual truth is that large mega corporations like Apple overcharge for its products regardless of where they are built. Apple is worth $1 trillion dollars. Why are their phones so expensive? So that they can continue to hoard absurd amounts of wealth and pay top executives (eg not the people inventing anything) ridiculous bonuses.

They could move production into the west and cut the price of the iPhone and still make a sizeable profit easily. But the public has bought into this corporate nonsense and cult of wealth porn.

Ya looks like iphones are only made for western nations no nonwestern citizen buys Apple products.They should move all of their manufacturing base to the West and after no money left for R&D gets beaten by Samsung and other brands and then have the fate of blackberry after 5 yrs, BRAVO
