iPhone 16 Will Be Assembled In Brazil, China, And India

The iPhone 16 is now available for pre-order, with retail availability set for Friday, September 20. As previously noted, Apple will produce the new iPhones in both India and China, but Brazil has also joined the list of countries participating in the assembly process.

Apple Producing iPhone 16 in Brazil, China, and India

According to MacMagazine, regulatory documents from Brazil validate that the iPhone 16 is now being assembled in Brazil, in addition to China and India. The Brazilian assembly takes place at a Foxconn facility located in Jundiaí, São Paulo.

This facility has previously been used for assembling iPhones, but this marks the first instance where a new model is being produced in Brazil from its initial launch. Currently, only the standard iPhone 16 model will be assembled locally, while the premium models will still be sourced from China.

Last year, Apple started assembling the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus models in India concurrently with China, marking a significant step for production in the region. By building iPhones locally, Apple aims to benefit from tax incentives and reduce its dependence on Chinese manufacturing. The company also operates assembly plants in Vietnam.

Assembling locally enables Apple to expedite the release of new iPhones in these markets. Previously, the company took about a month to launch new products in Brazil, but with the iPhone 16, releases will occur just a week after the U.S. debut.

In the U.S., the starting price for the iPhone 16 is set at $799, while the iPhone 16 Pro begins at $999.
