The 'i' in iPhone 11 now stands for India-made: Apple for the first time makes a top-of-the-line model in the country
//Apple has started making its flagship iPhone 11 at the Foxconn plant near Chennai, the first time it’s manufactured a top-of-the-line model in the country, marking a boost for the government’s Make in India initiative.
//Of the three new models Apple launched in September, the iPhone 11 is the biggest seller in India. Supplies of the locally made device have already reached stores.
//The latest move marks the growing localization of Apple’s manufacturing in the country. The move also helps expand Apple’s production base beyond China at a time when Sino-US ties have soured.
//Apple may consider exporting the India-made iPhone 11 and reducing its dependence on China.
