90% of the iPhones are anticipated to be produced in China by the year 2023. Apple is now looking to produce iPhones in different locations in an effort to balance off the device's high demand and scarcity. Giz China's explanation of the situation and Apple's plans to relocate its manufacturing elsewhere to address supply chain issues stemming from the company's extreme concentration in one nation explains the scenario. A second wave of the pandemic is a concern for millions of individuals around the world as the winter season brings with it an undeniable threat of contagiousness. China, where the Chinese government has recently loosened its containment measures, notably in the city of Zhengzhou, which is well-known for being Apple's iPhone production hub, would be the core of this year's second wave.

Another Reuters piece details Apple's plans to step up its manufacturing efforts in India. Alan Day, a production line expert, believes that the relaxations pose a serious threat to Apple's production lines. The iPhone is manufactured in factories all around China, so any production delays or material shortages may result in a startling drop in sales of 8%, or 15 million iPhones. A buyer in Europe would have to wait for the new iPhone for two to three weeks due to insufficient parts and a lengthier delivery period, which adds to the desperation. If such a shortage materialized, it would have a profound effect on not only Apple's financial situation but also the whole global computer industry.

At the time of publication, customers who order an iPhone 14 Pro Max from the Apple Store in Europe will receive the handset between January 5 and January 12. In conclusion, the Covid outbreak in China and the recently loosened border control measures turn out to be a bad mix for the computer giant Apple. The spread will have significant physical and monetary effects. To protect the security of its operations and, more significantly, the security of the devoted employees on their production line, Apple needs all the assistance it can get. Additionally, the business needs to choose a reliable location for its manufacturing.
