印媒：可能首次在中国以外，苹果或在印度启动iPhone17的研发

Apple may look at India for development of new iPhone model for the first time outside China

首次在中国以外的地方，苹果可能考虑在印度开发新款iPhone

India’s manufacturing push is set to get another shot in the arm as Apple’s iPhone assembly could further see a big development. According to noted Appleanalyst Ming-Chi Kuo, with the iPhone 17 — which could launch in 2025 — Apple may for the first time start development of a new iPhone outside of China. “The new product introduction (NPI) for the standard iPhone 17 (to be launched in 2H25) is expected to start kick-off in India in 2H24,” said Kuo in a note.

This, according to Kuo, will be the first time for Apple to begin development of a new iPhone model outside of China. The analyst suggested that the standard iPhone “is chosen for its lower-difficulty design development to reduce design risk.”

随着苹果的iPhone组装可能进一步取得重大进展，印度的制造业将再次获得提振。苹果著名分析师郭明錤表示，随着iPhone 17可能于2025年推出，苹果可能会首次在中国以外的地方开始开发新的iPhone。郭明錤在一份报告中表示：“标准iPhone 17（将于25年下半年推出）的新产品介绍（NPI）预计将于24年下半年在印度开始。”

郭说，这将是苹果公司第一次在中国以外的地区开发新的iPhone机型。这位分析师表示，选择标准iPhone“是因为它的设计开发难度较低，以降低设计风险。”

Apple’s big India push

In another Apple’s made in India push, last week, Tata sealed the deal to acquire Wistron's iPhone assembly plant in India for $125 million. Kuo has also suggested that “the proportion of iPhones made in India will increase to 20–25% by 2024.” Tata's move is part of a broader shift by Apple to diversify its supply chain away from China. Apple has been looking to reduce its production dependence on China. Apple’s production was hit by disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Apple has been facing increasing scrutiny over its supply chain, and the company is looking to diversify its manufacturing base.

Tata Group is also well-positioned to take advantage of the Indian government's production-linked incentive (PLI) scheme for smartphones. The PLI scheme provides financial incentives to companies that manufacture in India. Tata is expected to invest heavily in Wistron's iPhone plant to expand its capacity and upgrade its technology. The group is also likely to leverage its exsting supply chain and logistics network to improve the efficiency of iPhone manufacturing in India.

苹果在印度大力推广

上周，在苹果的另一项印度制造计划中，塔塔以1.25亿美元收购了纬创在印度的iPhone组装厂。郭还表示，“到2024年，印度制造的iPhone的比例将增加到20-25%。”塔塔此举是苹果将供应链从中国多元化的更广泛转变的一部分。苹果一直在寻求减少对中国的生产依赖。苹果的生产受到新冠疫情中断的打击。苹果公司的供应链面临着越来越多的审查，该公司正寻求让制造基地多样化。

塔塔集团也处于有利地位，可以利用印度政府的智能手机生产挂钩激励计划。PLI计划为在印度生产的公司提供经济激励。塔塔预计将对纬创的iPhone工厂进行大量投资，以扩大产能并升级技术。该集团还可能利用其现有的供应链和物流网络来提高印度iPhone制造的效率。

Yesterday, Apple created problems for India with its warming to Indian politicians about spyware. Today, this news is about iPhone production from our country. It is difficult to understand the quite opposite events unfolding on a daily basis.

昨天，苹果公司就间谍软件向印度政客发出警告，给印度制造了麻烦。今天，这个新闻是关于我们国家印度生产iPhone新机型的。很难理解每天发生的事件是矛盾的

This was a world wide advisory sent by Apple incl US, Europe, etc and not specifically targeted at India...

这是苹果公司向美国、欧洲等国发出全球咨询，并非专门针对印度。

What about iPhone 16, skipped??

Of course, Gada Electronics is rumoured to be India's top contender for the iPhone 17 franchise. Forget Apple's global strategy; we all know who the real tech giants are!

当然，据传加达电子是印度iPhone 17系列的头号竞争者。忘记苹果的全球战略吧；我们都知道谁才是真正的科技巨头！

富士康目前占了印度75%至80%的iPhone产能。

印度生产的iPhone预计到2024年将激增至20%至25%。

According to a news article from Firstpost, Apple will start assembling the iPhone 17 in its Indian factories before anywhere else in the world, marking a major shift in its global strategy.

This is the first time that a new product introduction of an iPhone is taking place outside China.

The standard iPhone 17 model will be developed outside of China to minimize risks associated with design, and the phone should make its global debut in the second half of 2025.

This move underscores Apple’s commitment to deepening its engagement with the Indian market.

The decision to start the development of a new iPhone model outside of China also highlights India’s growing significance in Apple’s global production landscape.

The shift in production indicates a global realignment in tech manufacturing, and India stands at the forefront of this transformative wave

根据Firstpost的一篇新闻报道，苹果将先于世界其他地方开始在印度工厂组装iPhone 17，这标志着苹果全球战略的重大转变。

这是iPhone首次在中国境外推出新产品。

标准的iPhone 17机型将在中国境外开发，以最大限度地降低与设计相关的风险，该手机将于2025年下半年在全球首次亮相。

此举突显出苹果公司致力于深化与印度市场的接触。

决定在中国以外地区开发新款iPhone，也突显了印度在苹果全球生产格局中日益重要的地位。

生产的转变表明了全球科技制造业的调整，印度站在了这场变革浪潮的最前沿
