The highly anticipated Apple iPhone 15 series is on the verge of its global launch, and Apple fans in India have reason to rejoice as the Indian release will align closely with the international rollout. Here’s what you need to know about the Apple iPhone 15 series release in India.
iPhone 15 Production in India
Apple has been making significant strides in bolstering its local production in India. The production of the iPhone 15 series at Foxconn’s Chennai facility in South India is a testament to the company’s commitment to the Indian market. By manufacturing iPhones locally, Apple aims to significantly reduce the time lag between global and Indian launches.
In previous years, Apple fans in India had to wait for nearly a month after the global release to get their hands on the latest iPhone models. However, this time, Apple is determined to bridge the gap and offer Indian consumers quicker access to the iPhone 15 series.
Anticipating High Demand During Festive Season
Apple’s decision to expedite the iPhone 15 series launch in India is strategic, considering the upcoming festive season in the country. India experiences a surge in consumer spending during festivals, and Apple aims to capitalize on this trend. The company expects robust demand for its new iPhones during this period.
Boosting Smartphone Exports from India
Apple’s iPhones have played a pivotal role in driving smartphone exports from India. With the commencement of mass production of the four iPhone 15 models, Apple is set to further boost smartphone manufacturing in the country. While there have been hints of minor delays, the production process is well underway.
Global Export Plans
In addition to serving the Indian market, Apple plans to export these ‘Made in India‘ iPhones to European and American markets starting in December 2023. This move aligns with Apple’s broader strategy of diversifying its supply chain and reducing its dependence on Chinese manufacturing.
