Apple is close to lifting the ban on iPhone 16 sales in Indonesia after President Prabowo Subianto approved a $1 billion investment from the tech giant. Indonesia initially banned the sale of the flagship device due to noncompliance with domestic content requirements. Apple presented an expanded investment plan, including setting up a plant in Batam to produce AirTags and another plant in Bandung for accessories. The investment aims to gain access to Indonesia's large consumer base and support the government's efforts to boost local manufacturing. However, there is no official timeline for the resumption of iPhone sales.

Apple's iPhone 16 has been banned in Indonesia due to not meeting the country's domestic content requirements. The ban was imposed because Apple has invested less money in Indonesia compared to its commitment. The company does not have any manufacturing facilities in the country, unlike its competitors. Only a small number of iPhone 16 units have reached Indonesia this year, and they were for personal use and not for sale. In related news, Apple has released the iOS 18.1 update, bringing AI features to the iPhone 16 series and iPhone 15 Pro models.
