Apple is planning to launch the iPhone 15, manufactured in India, in the country as part of its diversification strategy. While most of Apple's phones are made in China, this move highlights India's growing production capabilities. The iPhone 15 is expected to be a major update, with the Pro models featuring an improved 3-nanometer processor. Apple aims to reduce its dependence on China, and the Indian government's incentives for manufacturers have made the country an attractive option. Apple recently reported declining sales, making the Indian market crucial for its diversification efforts.

These features will instead be included in the October update, giving Apple more time to address bugs. The Apple Intelligence features will first be available to developers for testing via the iOS 18.1 and iPadOS 18.1 developer beta. The report suggests that the upcoming iPhone 16 series may ship without these AI features.

Apple CEO Tim Cook faces challenges in making the company's latest hardware push successful, particularly with the launch of the $3,500 Vision Pro headset. This pricey mixed reality device is crucial for Apple to win over consumers, especially as signs emerge that the iPhone, its biggest moneymaker, is in need of a revamp. Net sales in China have been declining, with a 24% drop in iPhone sales in the first weeks of the year, resulting in Apple slipping to fourth place in smartphone market share. Factors contributing to this decline include a soft Chinese economy, changes in consumer preferences, and increased competition from local brands like Huawei. As Apple works on developing artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities, it hopes to offer new features that can give the iPhone an edge over its Chinese competitors.
