A report by Reuters reveals that Apple has taken to the skies, airlifting 10.5 million iPhones via cargo flights from Chennai airport in India to the US. The tech giant has taken this strategic move to sidestep the reciprocal tariffs from Trump, as those will affect Apple’s pricing dramatically (pending what happens with tariffs going forward).
The shipment amounts to 600 tons of iPhones – what a number! It is an act to keep Apple’s foothold strong in one of its largest markets, the US, amid a shifting political landscape. Apple is extending operations in its Foxconn factory in India, to work even on Sundays.
