Locally manufactured mobile phone shipments crossed the 2 billion cumulative units mark under the “Make in India” initiative during 2014-2022, registering a 23 per cent CAGR, a new report said on Monday. According to market research firm Counterpoint Research’s “Made in India” service report, this was driven by huge internal demand, increasing digital literacy and the government’s push. India has also become the second-biggest mobile phone-producing country in the world.
Amid rumours of the next iPhone SE being delayed, a tipster has leaked pertinent details about the upcoming iPhone SE or iPhone SE 4 that say the device would launch with an Action Button which we are likely to see in the upcoming iPhone 15 Pro. According to the leakster known as “Unknownz21”, other key features of the iPhone SE 4 include a Face ID and USB-C charging which is also likely to arrive with the iPhone 15 series.
In a bid to encourage Apple, HP, Dell and other global companies, the government is ready to extend the timeline needed to set up local manufacturing facilities in the country, the media has reported. This comes days after the government imposed restrictions on the import of laptops, tablets, servers and other Personal Computers (PCs), in an attempt to give a push to local manufacturing. The manufacturers are said to have sought up to 12 months to set up manufacturing facilities in India.
