Apple really dragging its feet to move production to India...while the Chinese already making millions of smart phones in that South Asian country...

Like Mi, Oppo, Vivo...So who says the Indians are "anti China"  Big Grin

I am long pass those childish comparison between IOS and Android, which phone has a better camera, which one gets more heads turning.  The phone is just a tool that's all.

Not surprisingly Vivo is one of several popular Chinese smartphone brands in your home country... Big Grin

Well, unlike you guys in India, Vivo's marketing is vastly different in SG - in case you failed to notice. Big Grin

Speaking of Made-in-India Vivo phones, we finally get to see the very rare "Made-in-India" iPhone 15.

...and there seems to be a logical reason why the Indians are still NOT happy, Big Grin

The the reasons  are understandable....

1. Despite being locally assembled,  iPhones remain prohibitively expensive in India. Thanks to much weakened Indian rupiah vs USD.

2. Apple Inc has treated India as a "2nd citizen" for over a decade. Apple customers in India will not get access to scores of services, including News+, Fitness+, and Apple Pay.
