President Trump threatened to impose a 25% tariff on iPhones if Apple continues to manufacture them in India instead of the U.S.
Analysts suggest that it would be more financially viable for Apple to absorb the tariff cost than to shift production back to the U.S.
The idea of a U.S.-made iPhone is deemed impractical and costly due to increased expenses, logistical challenges, and time-consuming setup of supply chains and factories.
While the relationship between Trump and Apple's Tim Cook is strained, experts are uncertain about how Trump's tariff threat will unfold, with possibilities of negotiations, legal challenges, or price adjustments for consumers.
