Apple began assembling the iPhone 14 in India last year, but operations began after China. Still, this was the first year that Apple manufactured the latest model in the country, having previously mass-produced older models in the country. Goyal’s statement suggests that a significant portion of iPhone 15 models may come out of India this year, although Apple is yet to confirm this.
Rumours that the iPhone 15 will see an early manufacturing trial further reinforce the idea that Apple is seeking to prevent situations where the manufacturing of one of its iPhones might shut down unexpectedly.
