In the article, journalist Patrick McGee discusses Apple's deep-rooted dependence on China for production and the unlikeliness of moving iPhone manufacturing to the U.S. He emphasizes that while Apple claims to shift some production to India and Vietnam, this is misleading. This dependence not only benefits Apple through cost-effective manufacturing but also strengthens China's technological capabilities, posing challenges for U.S. competition. McGee's recent book delves into the complexities of this relationship that has unfolded over decades.
There's no chance that will happen, says Patrick McGee, a journalist who just published a book on Apple's deep ties to China.
McGee argues that Apple's end-around on Trump's China tariffs is misleading, as the reality of moving production is underestimated.
