Report: Tech Giant Apple Flies in Five Planeloads of iPhones from China and India to Dodge Trump’s America-First Tariffs | The G...
In a calculated move to sidestep new tariffs, Apple expedited the airlift of iPhones from China and India, raising questions about the company's commitment to American manufacturing and its approach to global supply chains.
Yet another reason to never buy anything apple makes...
"Apple has reportedly orchestrated the rapid shipment of five plane-loads of iPhones and other products from its manufacturing hubs in India and China to the United States within a mere three days.
This maneuver aimed to circumvent the newly imposed 10% reciprocal tariff, effective April 5, 2025, allowing Apple to temporarily maintain its current pricing structure, The Times of India reported.
According to reports, Apple orchestrated a last-minute airlift of iPhones ahead of looming tariffs, ensuring they reached U.S. soil before the deadline.
Instead of supporting American manufacturing, Apple chose to exploit global labor markets — particularly in China, a known adversary that benefits from cheap labor and lax regulations.
President Trump’s tariffs were designed to bring jobs back to the U.S. and reduce dependence on foreign supply chains, especially from Communist China.
Yet Apple, a company that enjoys massive profits from American consumers, went out of its way to undermine these efforts."
The phones and software will be old before they ever sell them all.
As an Apple stockholder, I applaud the move, the article states that they will not increase prices. Apple is investing 500 Billion in the United States.
You can bet they will raise prices on anything that IS tariffed, and that these shipments will be magically included in the price increase.
Yup,they only stuffed their own pockets with this move. Didn't save their customers a dime.
And yet, they will still jack the buyer in price. Apple sucks
