Reports last year said Apple would add an anti-reflective coating to the iPhone 17 Pro and 17 Pro Max, but that's no longer the case.

Apple Inc. is taking a very high-profile step to alter its manufacturing strategy. They are moving some of their core iPhone production from China to India. This transition is bound to face heavy headwinds.

The plans are the latest sign of Apple and its suppliers accelerating a pivot away from China, a process that began when harsh Covid lockdowns hurt production at its largest plant.
