Wistron Corp has begun manufacturing iPhone 7 in India, confirms Apple



One of Apple's key manufacturers, Wistron Corp, has begun manufacturing iPhone 7 locally in India, Apple has confirmed. The handset is being manufactured out of its facility at Narasapura in Kolar district, on the outskirts of Bengaluru. Earlier only iPhone 6s and SE models were manufactured out of the unit.
"We are proud to be producing iPhone 7 in Bengaluru for our local customers furthering our long-term commitment in India,” an Apple India spokesperson said in an emailed statement.
That it would produce higher-end devices was anticipated when Wistron announced plans to open the Narasapura facility, its second in India after Peenya, in June 2018. The Taiwanese contract manufacturer, which also manufacturers for Xiaomi and Nokia, has taken up a 43-acre land parcel and plans to invest Rs3,000 crore in the unit in a phased manner.
It was earlier touted that Apple may also produce iPhone 8 and higher models locally, but that has not been confirmed so far. Read More
