Tariff Tensions Slash 2025 Smartphone Growth Outlook as Apple, Samsung Slow Shipments

Apple plans to start assembling all iPhones sold in the United States in India by the end of 2026, in direct response to the tightening grip of geopolitics on global supply chains. 

With fresh rounds of tariffs hitting Chinese exports and current friction between Washington and Beijing, the tech giant is accelerating its pivot away from China.

This is not some slow, phased transition. According to sources cited by the Financial Times, Apple plans to more than double its iPhone production in India within a year—an aggressive timeline given it took nearly twenty years to mature its operations in China. The goal is to relocate the full assembly line for over 60 million U.S.-bound iPhones annually.

India is quickly becoming central to Apple’s global strategy. The company assembled $22 billion worth of iPhones in the country in the financial year ending March 2025, a 60% surge from the previous year.

This rapid growth is supported by Indian manufacturing giants like Tata Electronics and Foxconn, with both firms playing top roles in expanding production capacity.

Trade issues are at the heart of this development. President Trump’s administration has increased tariffs on Chinese goods to as high as 145%. China fired back with a 125% levy.

While electronic imports were temporarily spared, Trump noted: “This is not a permanent exemption. Tariffs will be applied to electronics separately.” The challenge is pushing companies like Apple to take pre-emptive action.

The financial impact has been tough. Apple lost as much as $700 billion in market value due to its dependence on Chinese factories and the instability that comes with it. Meanwhile, India is dangling massive incentives—up to $2.7 billion—to attract electronics manufacturers. It’s a win-win for Apple: cost savings, reduced geopolitical risk, and government backing.

Major multinationals are rethinking their manufacturing footprints, no longer comfortable with putting all their eggs in the China basket. Diversification is no longer a buzzword. It’s a necessity.

Apple, despite years of investment in China, is feeling the heat. Political monitoring from Beijing is increasing, and recent disruptions—from civil unrest to COVID-19 lockdowns—have exposed the fragility of its once-reliable Chinese supply chain.

So now, Apple doesn’t want to depend on a single manufacturing hub anymore, it’s a risk it can no longer afford.
