A new report from Financial Times claims that 50% of all iPhone cases made in India are currently rejected by Apple’s quality control. The report is based on information from former Apple employees and details the problem of low performance at the Indian manufacturing giant Tata’s plant located in Hosur. No other manufacturing facilities were mentioned in the report.
The new report says the low performance of the iPhone casing in India is a big success for Apple’s plans to outsource a larger portion of iPhone manufacturing to India. Former Apple employees named in the report believe the carcass yield situation will improve, but the process will likely require a significant amount of time and effort.
Based on a recent report, Apple plans to shift up to 25% of all iPhone production to India by 2025 and up to 50% by 2027.
