To help in sharp pace and prevent any unnecessary obstacles, Apple allegedly lobbying airport officials in the country to reduce the time spent in customs. The demand for the iPhone model in the United States is so high that 97 % of all the phones recovered have been sent there.
This increase in demand is further context, this year, in just five months, $ 4.4 billion from India to the United States has been seen. Only $ 3.7 billion worth of iPhone from India fully traveled to the states.
Apple has also allegedly lobbied the airport officials at Chennai Airport, which has resulted in just six hours waiting for the customs compared to 30. All this extra effort is to avoid revenue on China, which may not matter, as the US president has asked Tim Cook to transfer production to states.

For apples, the entire tariff orders in the neck have been a problem, which has flown into the country in the iPhone model before the new rates are implemented. Despite all this, the company is still considering an increase in the cost of iPhone 17 as uncertainty in the industry is in danger of supplying China shortage and prices.
Apple is not the only company that is affecting them all. While Samsung, the Samsung, the largest smartphone contested in the United States, went out of production from China years ago, is still facing prices. Countries where Samsung manufactures his phones, like the Galaxy S25 series, has been applied to new prices despite less than China. In addition, technology developments have increased prices so much that Samsung is considering Chinese suppliers for its OLED display.
It seems that Apple has had a flaw for now, but I don’t think that is not the last thing until President Trump fully considered his rate strategy fully.
