India has overtaken China as the leading manufacturing hub for smartphones sold in the US. The latest Canalys report shows that 44% of all US smartphone imports for the April\u2013June period (Q2) were made in India. This is a remarkable rise compared to last year, when India accounted for a mere 13% of all US smartphone imports while China held a reassuring 61% share.<\/p>\n

Apple played a major role in India\u2019s rise as the leading smartphone exporter to the US. Cupertino has been stockpiling<\/a> iPhone inventory to absorb tariff blows following the Trump administration\u2019s \u201cLiberation Day\u201d<\/a> tariffs.<\/p>\n

The move is also part of Apple\u2019s longstanding effort to diversify its iPhone production away from China. A report<\/a> from October suggested that Apple is even doing early manufacturing work on iPhones in India and Cupertino allegedly<\/a> plans to switch all US iPhone production to India by next year.<\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not just Apple, as Samsung and Motorola have also scaled up their smartphone supplies from India.<\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

Looking at the numbers, Apple was the clear-cut leader on the US smartphone scene with 13.3 million shipments in Q2 and a 49% market share. Samsung came in second place with an estimated 8.3 million shipments a 31% market share while Motorola was third with 3.2 million shipments and a 12% market share.<\/p>\n

\"India<\/p>\n

Google and TCL each shared a 3% market share with quarterly shipments just below 1 million each. A total of 27.1 million smartphones were shipped in the US during the Q2 period which is a slight 1% annual growth. US smartphone demand is expected to remain neutral heading into the second half of the year.<\/p>\n
