👩🍳 How we use AI at Tech in Asia, thoughtfully and responsibly.🧔♂️ A friendly human may check it before it goes live. More news hereSmartphone shipments to the United States rose by 30% in March 2025, according to Counterpoint Research.This was driven by manufacturers like Apple, Samsung, and Motorola, who expedited shipments to avoid potential import tariffs.Apple transported a record US$2 billion worth of iPhones from India in March, working with suppliers Foxconn and Tata Electronics.This move reflects a broader trend of shifting production from China to countries like India and Vietnam to diversify supply chains and reduce geopolitical risks.India’s smartphone exports to the US accounted for 26% of all first-quarter shipments, up from 16% last year.Apple saw a 42% increase in sales to US distributors, Samsung’s sell-in rose 4%, and Motorola nearly tripled its exports from India in March.🔗 Source: Reuters🧠 Food for thought1️⃣ Tariff-driven shifts creating a new tech manufacturing hierarchyThe evolving US tariff structure (26% for India vs. 46% for Vietnam and 104% for China) is reshaping the global smartphone manufacturing landscape beyond just temporary stockpiling 1.This has accelerated a multi-stage migration pattern, where production first moved from China to Vietnam (2018-2023), and is now increasingly shifting to India as tariff differentials create new manufacturing economics 2.Major manufacturers are responding differently based on their existing footprints. Samsung can leverage its established Indian facilities, while Google is negotiating with Indian manufacturers to increase monthly Pixel production beyond current 40,000 units 3.Data supports this transformation: India’s share of US-bound smartphone shipments has already jumped from 16% to 26% in Q1 2025, while China’s declined from 56% to 52% 4.This represents a significant acceleration of a trend that began gradually, with Apple only starting significant iPhone manufacturing in India in 2022, highlighting how quickly trade policies can reshape global manufacturing.2️⃣ Strategic inventory stockpiling signals new approach to trade uncertaintyMarch’s exceptional 30% surge in US smartphone shipments reflects a calculated business response to tariff threats rather than consumer demand growth 4.This resulted in a 51% year-over-year inventory increase, with manufacturers deliberately building significant buffer stocks to avoid near-term tariff impacts 4.Apple’s aggressive approach stands out, with the company airlifting a record $2 billion worth of iPhones from India in March alone and increasing sales to distributors by 42%, significantly outpacing Samsung’s more modest 4% increase 5.Counterpoint analysts note this stockpiling will shield companies from pricing impacts through “mid-to-late summer,” creating a temporary tariff-free inventory cushion 4.The strategy represents a significant shift in how tech companies manage supply chains, proactively building inventory reserves to create operational flexibility during trade uncertainty rather than the just-in-time inventory models that prevailed in previous years
