iPhone 17 iPhone Air / 17 * Country of Manufacture

[NotApplicable]

There have been a lot of theories about whether or not all US-bound iPhones would be manufactured in India. While there's no guarantee that review units are sourced from the same supply chain as general circulation, iJustine's review Air is from China with the A3260 (US/CA/MX/SA) model number.

Of course, it's possible that China-manufactured phones will head to CA/MX/SA and India-manufactured A3260s will head to US, but interesting nonetheless!

It looks like her Pro Max review unit is also from China. Haven't done detective work in other review videos.

Edit: looks like her base 17 is China too

ok all 4 of mkbhd's are china too. guess no India-manufactured units were sent out for review

Kind of a given?

The early stuff, especially the reviewer units, are made back in June or July and demand the highest assembly quality. Once the yield ramps up and process defined, then the Chinese engineers move to India to teach them and replicate the process.

will be interesting to see how it looks tomorrow when retail units start arriving

My US Air is of China. Looks like the rumor that ALL us devices from day one would be from India was a bunch of bologna
