Interestingly, the latest iPhone, even in terms of the location of production of most of its key components, is hardly Chinese anymore. Look, 29% of them, based on cost, are supplied from South Korea. LG Group provides parts for the camera, Samsung Group supplies the display.
The USA has provided the largest share of key components, 33%, with Qualcomm and Broadcom supplying communication chips. Japan’s share remains unchanged at 10%. Apple manufactures its own chips in Taiwan (TSMC). China’s share is 2.5%. A significant Chinese contribution is the titanium case.
