The story claims that Tata Group has already placed orders for the upcoming iPhone 15 and 15 Plus. This means that India will receive the new iPhones before of any other country. The research group predicts that the Indian multinational will manufacture a modest percentage of iPhone 15 and 15 Plus units.
Only 5% of both models will be assembled there. The normal version will be assembled 75% by Foxconn and 25% by Luxshare. Reports indicate that Luxshare and Pegatron receive 60% and 35% of Plus variant assembly orders, respectively.
Foxconn will assemble 70% of the Pro and Pro Max variants for the iPhone 15. Luxshare will acquire 70% of the latter, while Pegatron would receive the remaining 30%. Also Read – Motorola Razr 2023 leaks indicate colorful flip phone users require
