Apple, which is always on the agenda, this time decided to assemble the iPhone 15 model at the Brazilian Foxconn factory. The facility in São Paulo is expected to be expanded and made more compatible with international Apple standards. The main reason for this move is the high taxes imposed on electronic devices in the country.
Standard iPhones, which sell for exactly $1,460, have become an elusive device for many Brazilians. This price is almost twice the price in America. It is anticipated that the decision will set an important example for other technology giants investing in the country. In addition, the country’s relatively close location to America stood out as another critical factor. Here are all the details…
iPhone 15 is on its way to Brazil this time!
We can say that the other reason for this move by Apple is the company’s effort to diversify its production and supply chain. The company, which has established its production network in China until now, started to look for a new path as relations with the country gradually weakened. Thus, Apple management, which aims to avoid tying its production to a single region, seems to increase its activities in other regions with cheap labor.
However, let us underline that only the standard iPhone 15 model, which has a 6.1-inch screen, will be assembled in Brazil. iPhone Plus, Pro and Pro Max models will continue to be assembled in China at least for a while. It was announced that the model number of products assembled in Brazil will contain BR/A. While this news is welcomed by the people of the country, many new job opportunities are expected to arise with the increasing work volume in the factory.
