Apple gets a lot of stick about manufacturing in China, and the issue came up again recently with the release of the iPhone 5.o itâs with some authority that we can say that there is no good business rationale for Apple to manufacture in the United States; if it were to try it would almost certainly get into serious trouble. It is not an issue of labor costs.
A lot goes into making an iPhone: Gorilla Glass, an A6 chip, circuit boards, the accelerometer, various other components, transistors, wires, and connectors. And then thereâs the software on top of that. As we know, Apple relies on manufacturers in China, such as Foxconn and Pegatron, to assemble its iPhones. Thatâs not just for cost savings: Apple needs the speed that Chinese manufacturing affords to be able to make quick changes to its production lines in order to ramp up the next-generation iPhone, and it needs their reliability and volume to deliver 31.2 million iPhones per quarter.
