 people familiar with the matter revealed that Apple will produce the upcoming iPhone 16 series through its partner Foxconn.

This time, Apple will assemble the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max in India for the first time. The Foxconn factory in Tamil Nadu, India will undertake the assembly of the Pro series . The India-made iPhone 16 Pro series will be launched and sold locally in India.

Supply chain sources said that Foxconn is the main OEM factory for iPhone, iPad, MacBook and AirPods, and is currently the largest iPhone manufacturer in India. Apple chose to assemble the iPhone 16 Pro series in India, and Foxconn will also benefit from this.
