Under pressure from Trump, Apple and Samsung should heed this ex-CEO before making phones in the US
Motorola's attempt to manufacture Moto X phones in the US failed due to low sales, high production costs, and difficulty in finding skilled workers. Despite customization options and assembly in Texas, major components still came from Asia. Experts warn that replicating this in the US is challenging for companies like Apple and Samsung due to labor shortages and higher expenses. Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Why US phone-making failed for Motorola Tired of too many ads? Remove Ads Why making phones in the USA is still so hard US tariffs push Apple and Samsung to think local China trains workers better for smartphone factories FAQs In 2013, Motorola tried to win over US customers by highlighting that its Moto X smartphone was 'Made in the USA.' Dennis Woodside, Motorola's former CEO, said some people were more likely to buy phones if they were made in the US. Motorola set up a factory in Fort Worth, Texas, to assemble its new Moto X smartphone and compete with the iPhone and Samsung X allowed customization — buyers could choose colors for buttons and the back panel through Motorola's website. This made it important to build the phones near US customers, so custom options could be delivered faster. Even though assembly was in Texas, major parts like the screen, battery, and motherboard came from Asia, as per the report by didn't go as planned — only around 500,000 Moto X phones sold in Q3 2013. In May 2014, Motorola announced the factory would close, and production moved out of the US. Woodside said making phones in the US had high costs, and the supply chain was too scattered. He said it was hard to hire and keep skilled workers because other jobs like retail or food service were easier and more work needed fine motor skills, since phones have hundreds of tiny parts, similar to handling 'super tiny Lego sets.' Most US workers weren't used to this kind of detailed work, so Motorola had to fully train new employees. Woodside says companies thinking of building phones in the US now should not underestimate how hard it is to find the right people, as stated by a CNN advised companies to offer a strong reason for workers to stay, use automation wisely, and make sure products stay affordable. Moto X was Motorola's biggest US production effort, building 100,000 phones per week, but it still failed to survive. Only smaller companies like Purism still build phones in the US, but they're tiny compared to is again pushing for US-based phone production, telling Apple and Samsung to make phones in the USA or face tariffs. Tariffs on Chinese electronics, where most phones are assembled, are set to begin on August 12 unless there's a deal. India, now the top exporter of smartphones to the US, will be hit with a 25% tariff from August 7, according to the report by US manufacturing sector is struggling — it lost 11,000 jobs from June to July 2025. It also lost around 15,000 jobs between May and June 2025, showing a steady drop in factory employment. A 2024 Cato Institute survey found most Americans don't want to work in factories.

Apple's partner Foxconn runs a huge factory in Zhengzhou, China, that once made 350 iPhones every minute back in 2016. Apple is now shifting some production to India and Vietnam, to reduce its dependence on China. India has now become the biggest phone exporter to the US, as per the Cook, Apple's CEO, said in 2017 that China is perfect for phone production due to a mix of craftsman skills, robotics, and tech talent. Phone assembly involves tasks like placing small parts (cameras, chips) onto the phone body, and requires serious hand skills.

OnePlus Pad Lite review: A reliable everyday performer
Price & Availability Design Display & Audio Performance Camera Verdict n a world where budget tablets often feel like afterthoughts, the OnePlus Pad Lite arrives with the promise of premium design, reliable performance, and a polished software experience without the premium price tag. It's clearly aimed at casual users who want a dependable device for streaming, browsing, and light productivity. But in a crowded segment with options like the Redmi Pad and Realme Pad series, does the Pad 3 Lite do enough to stand out6GB RAM + 128GB Storage (Wi-Fi): ₹15,9998GB RAM + 128GB Storage (Wi-Fi + 4G LTE): ₹17,999You can buy the tablet from the official OnePlus India website, Amazon, Flipkart, OnePlus Experience Stores, and other major offline retailers like Croma, Reliance Digital, and Vijay OnePlus Pad Lite's design is a clear indicator that it takes strong inspiration from its elder sibling, the OnePlus Pad 3. The tablet features a sleek, unibody design that feels far more premium than its price point suggests. The build quality feels excellent, with a sandblasted metal finish on the back that not only looks sophisticated but also enhances grip and housing a large 11-inch display, the tablet is easy to hold due to its impressive specs. It measures 254.91 x 166.46 x 7.39 mm and weighs just 530g. The weight distribution is perfect, making it feel perfectly balanced and comfortable for long-term use. If you carry this tablet around, you won't face any issues, whether you're using it one-handed or with terms of features, the tablet offers a decent level of durability with a Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protected screen and an IP52 rating for dust and splash resistance, which provides some peace of mind for everyday use. It comes in a single Aero Blue color, a muted, sophisticated shade that adds to its premium aesthetic. A black color option would also be a welcome addition to the can also watch the unboxing here The OnePlus Pad Lite features a large 11-inch LCD screen with a 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a peak brightness of 500 nits. It also supports a 10-bit color depth, which is great for watching movies and other media. The display also includes TÜV Rheinland certifications for low blue light and flicker-free viewing, making it comfortable for extended use. We used it to watch YouTube videos, movies, and even a test series match between India and the visual quality was consistently excellent. For those who enjoy watching movies, we suggest getting a cover for the tablet to prop it up for the best viewing comparing it to a competitor like the Redmi Pad Lite, the OnePlus Pad Lite's display holds up well, offering a similar 11-inch size, 90Hz refresh rate, and up to 400-500 nits of brightness, depending on the model. While the Redmi Pad 2 offers a higher 2.5K resolution, the OnePlus Pad Lite feels on par in terms of overall visual quality. However, the software experience with OxygenOS on the OnePlus Pad Lite feels much smoother and more fluid to interact with, which gives it an gaming, while the 90Hz refresh rate is good for casual games, we found ourselves missing the smoother experience of a 120Hz display that is available on some other devices. For audio, the tablet is equipped with a quad-speaker setup that is a welcome addition. These speakers provide an adequately loud and clear sound, perfect for a media consumption device. They are also certified for Hi-Res Audio, offering an immersive cinematic experience that automatically adapts to the screen's OnePlus Pad Lite is powered by the MediaTek Helio G100 chipset, which is paired with either 6GB or 8GB of LPDDR4x RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.2 storage. This combination is more than enough to handle content consumption and basic multitasking with ease. However, for more demanding tasks like extended, high-intensity gaming sessions or heavy-duty video editing, the tablet lacks the raw horsepower, which is anyway not expected for a device in this price biggest strength of the tablet is its software. It runs on OxygenOS 15 based on Android 15, which provides a clean, fluid, and user-friendly experience that is a joy to navigate. The tablet is set to receive a promise of three major Android OS upgrades and four years of security updates, which is a solid commitment for a budget terms of AI features, the tablet feels somewhat watered down compared to flagship smartphones. It lacks a full-fledged OnePlus AI suite, but some of the standout features include "Circle to Search" for quick information retrieval and effective transcription tablet comes with a large 9340 mAh battery, which, combined with the power-efficient chipset and 90Hz display, delivers impressive endurance and makes it an excellent companion for travel. When it's time to recharge, the tablet supports 33W SUPERVOOC fast charging, or what we've been calling "SuperVOOC Junior." While this speed may feel a bit slow compared to what OnePlus has spoiled us with on their phones, it is a necessary limitation of the multiple would also like to highlight that if you can, we suggest getting the LTE variant for easier access to internet wherever you go. This will help in getting access on the go. And since the difference is not a lot in pricing, it can be a valuable optics, the OnePlus Pad Lite features a simple 5MP sensor on both the front and rear, which is what we would call a "just about decent" setup. Tablet cameras are, for the most part, intended for very limited use cases, such as taking pictures of documents or using the selfie camera for video calls. They are certainly not a primary selling point and should not be expected to provide the same level of photography prowess as a modern smartphone. The cameras support video recording up to 1080p at 30fps. We also noted that the camera app lacks a built-in document scanning option, which we feel is an important and useful feature for a tablet. We hope OnePlus adds this feature in a future OTA OnePlus Pad 3 Lite delivers where it matters most for casual users a sleek design, fluid display, clean software experience, and excellent battery life. It may not be a powerhouse for gamers or pro users, and the cameras are purely functional, but it shines as an affordable, media-friendly tablet for everyday use. If you're looking for a reliable entertainment and productivity companion without breaking the bank, this one's easy to recommend.
