I would like to see India start replacing inexpensive phones made in China with inexpensive phones made in India. In all cases it's better if India develops their own industry further such that they rely on China less.
If they can make iPhones in India, they can certainly figure out how to build competitive, inexpensive phones to replace those made in China.
- magicsmoke 6y agoThey manufacture iPhones in India, they don't design them there.
- tchalla 6y agoApple assembles phones in India, it doesn't manufacture in India yet.
- yumraj 6y agoTechnically phones are assembled in China also.
- magicsmoke 6y agoXiaomi, Oneplus, and Huawei do phone design. To be fair, the design involves choosing from US/Taiwan designed/fabricated chips and gluing them together with firmware and PCB layouts, so it's not like China can replicate the entire phone manufacturing supply chain either.
- yumraj 6y agoI realized, I had missed an 'i'. I had meant, "Technically iPhones are assembled in China also."
- shalmanese 6y agoThis has already happened. All of the cheap Chinese phone manufacturers build their Indian phones in India and this features prominently in their advertising.
