In China, the manufacturing units are shut for days, hindering the entire production line. The reports have further revealed that China’s zero-COVID policy has significantly slowed down production of the upcoming iPhone 14 series. The other reason is the increased tariffs and a constant tussle between the US and China. While one country houses the companies, the other manufactures their products. Rising tensions between these two countries are affecting the manufacturing process and the companies as well. Apple will be manufacturing the iPhone 14 series in China and India simultaneously. The development is unprecedented. Unfortunately, Apple and Google did not reveal whether it is just an experiment to shift the production to other countries or they are permanently moving to other countries.
