The price of iPhone 14 decreased by 500 USD after the launch of production in Brazil
Apple produces most of its iPhones in China. In order to reduce its dependence on China, it began diversifying its supply chain a few years ago. Currently, the basic iPhone 14 is assembled in Brazil.
The production of smartphones was launched in São Paulo at the production facilities of Foxconn Brasil. This became known from a MacMagazine reader. Not long ago, the man bought a blue iPhone 14 in a Brazilian store. On the packaging, he found the inscription Made in Brazil.
Previously, Apple assembled only the iPhone SE and iPhone 13 models in Brazil. Imported products in this country are subject to high taxes. That is why many companies launch production facilities in Brazil. This allows them to reduce sales taxes. Prior to the launch of iPhone 14 production in Brazil, this model was offered for purchase in local stores at a price of USD 1,520. Now it can be purchased for USD 1,000.
The iPhone 15 will be launched by Apple simultaneously in India and China.
