‘India has become top supplier of smartphones to US': Vaishnaw cites Rs 12 lakh crore electronics output; 99.2% of phones sold in India are made in India, shows data
Ashwini Vaishnaw NEW DELHI: Union minister Ashwini Vaishnaw on Sunday said India has emerged as the leading supplier of smartphones to the United States, with electronics manufacturing in the country now valued at Rs 12 lakh crore. Speaking at the inauguration of metro projects in Bengaluru, Vaishnaw said India's electronic production has grown sixfold in the past 11 years. He added that electronic exports have increased eightfold to Rs 3 lakh crore and noted India's position as the world's second-largest mobile phone manufacturer. Playing Picture-in-picture Apple Confirms: Majority of iPhones Sold in US Are Now Made in India 'Our electronic production has grown six times in the last 11 years. Today, electronics manufacturing has touched Rs 12 lakh crore. Electronic exports have increased by eight times… Today, it has grown to Rs 3 lakh crore. India has become the second-largest manufacturer of mobile phones in the world,' Vaishnaw said. According to official government data, India had only two mobile manufacturing units in 2014; today, there are over 300. In 2014-15, just 26% of mobile phones sold in India were made domestically, with the rest imported. Now, 99.2% of phones sold in India are manufactured locally. The value of mobile phone manufacturing has risen from Rs 18,900 crore in FY14 to Rs 4,22,000 crore in FY24. Vaishnaw said this growth reflects the government's vision of making India a global hub for technology production and ensuring wider access to advanced electronics. Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi flagged off three new Vande Bharat trains, Ajni (Nagpur)-Pune, KSR Bengaluru-Belgavi, and Shree Mata Vaishnodevi Katra-Amritsar, from KSR Bengaluru railway station. With these additions, the total number of Vande Bharat trains has reached 150 (75 pairs), Vaishnaw said in a post on X.

Infinix Hot 60i 5G with 6,000mAh battery, MediaTek SoC to launch in India soon: Expect price, specs and more
After the debut of Infinix Hot 60 5G last month, the Transsion-owned brand is now looking to bring in a new variant in the budget-focused lineup called the Hot 60i 5G. Infinix has started teasing the new phone while also revealing its chipset, battery size, colour variants, and various other details. Infinix has confirmed that the Hot 60i 5G will be available to buy from Flipkart and its own website, similar to other Infinix devices sold in the Indian market. The phone is all set to come in four colour variants: Shadow Blue, Monsoon Green, Sleek Black, and Plum Red. As for the design, Infinix seems to have beaten Apple to the punch with the introduction of a pill-shaped horizontal camera module that is rumoured to debut with the iPhone 17 Air. The camera module, along with the use of solid colours by the brand, gives a clean look to the back, followed by Infinix branding at the bottom. While Infinix has not shared a confirmed launch date yet, the budget model is hinted to arrive later this month. Infinix has confirmed that the Hot 60i will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6400 processor in India, which also powers the likes of the realme P3x and Lava Storm Lite. The phone will come with a massive 6,000mAh battery, which the company claims is the biggest in its segment. It will also feature an IP64 rating for water and dust resistance, meaning it can handle splashes and light rainfall but not full submersion. The Hot 60i will have a dual-camera setup on the back, with the primary shooter carrying a 50MP lens and support for LED flash, HDR, and panorama modes. The phone is expected to run on Infinix's XOS 15 based on Android 15. Infinix has also promised a suite of AI features seen in many of its past smartphones, including AI Eraser, AI Extender, AI Call Translation, and Circle to Search. While there is no clarity on pricing yet, the Hot 60i should start around the ₹ 10,000 mark, as anything higher could conflict with the company's own Infinix Note 50x (Review).

iPhone 17 prices likely higher than iPhone 16, launch expected on this date: Details inside
Apple is gearing up for one of its biggest tech reveals of the year, with the iPhone 17 line-up expected to make its grand entrance next month. Running the freshly minted iOS 26, the range will reportedly include four distinct models: the standard iPhone 17, the iPhone 17 Pro, the iPhone 17 Pro Max, and a brand-new addition, the slim and featherlight iPhone 17 Air. While the company has yet to officially circle a date on the calendar, history suggests that the launch will take place in early September, perfectly timed to whip Apple devotees into their annual anticipation is already in overdrive, fuelled by an endless stream of leaks, speculation and not-so-subtle hints from industry insiders. But this year's fanfare comes with a twist: a cloud of uncertainty is hanging over the pricing. And that cloud? It's wearing a red tie and shouting about tariffs. US President Donald Trump's recently announced 'reciprocal tariffs' on India and China, two of Apple's most crucial iPhone production hubs, could mean that the new devices carry heftier price tags than last year's 17 likely to be pricierAnalyst Jeff Pu of GF Securities is already bracing buyers for a bump in costs, telling MacRumors that the iPhone 17 family will 'likely' be pricier in the US than its predecessors. His reasoning is fairly straightforward: if you make things in countries hit with import duties, the cost eventually trickles down to the consumer. And with Trump's new policy slapping a 20 per cent tariff on iPhones imported from China and none on those from India, Apple's global supply chain strategy suddenly matters more than where Tim Cook comes in. The Apple chief recently made a rare appearance at a White House press conference alongside Trump, announcing a mammoth $100 billion investment to shift more of Apple's production and supply operations onto American soil. This massive move has reportedly won the tech giant partial relief from the new tariff regime. And while that might shield some models from the full brunt of import duties, it also raises the stakes for Apple's manufacturing footprint in India, which has grown dramatically in recent too long ago, India's contribution to Apple's iPhone production was barely a blip on the radar. Today, it accounts for about 14 per cent of flagship model output, a figure Cook proudly cited earlier this year. In fact, between April and June, most iPhones sold in the US were made in India. If you're wondering why that matters, here's the simple takeaway: the more Apple shifts production to India, the more models it can import tariff-free into the American market, and that could be the difference between a modest price hike and a serious dent in your so, don't expect Apple to hold the line entirely. A leak from Chinese tipster Instant Digital claims prices will climb by around $50 across the range. If those whispers are accurate, the entry-level iPhone 17 would launch at $849 in the US, roughly Rs 89,900 for buyers in India. The ultra-slim iPhone 17 Air could come in at $949 (about Rs 99,900), while the iPhone 17 Pro might demand $1,199 (around Rs 1,45,900). Sitting proudly at the top of the heap, the iPhone 17 Pro Max could command $1,249 (an eye-watering Rs 1,64,900). For perspective, that's the sort of money you could also spend on a top-tier laptop, a city break in Europe, or a very nice sofa, but let's be honest, a shiny new iPhone tends to win 17 series to launch next monthPricing aside, the launch schedule looks set to follow Apple's tried-and-true playbook. If tradition holds, the company will fire out media invites in the first week of September, sending the tech press into a frenzy of live-blog prep and headline drafts. The big reveal will then be followed by a short but intense pre-order window, opening just days after the curtain lifts. If you're already pencilling dates into your diary, the smart money is on new iPhones hitting shop shelves on either September 12 or 19, both Thursdays, naturally, because Apple likes to keep things short, the iPhone 17 launch has all the ingredients for another classic Apple spectacle: a slick presentation, a devoted audience hanging on to every word, and just enough political drama to make the pricing story as intriguing as the tech itself. Whether you're in it for the gadget lust, the bragging rights, or simply to see what colour options will spark the next trend, next month's unveiling promises to be one of the year's headline moments in the world of consumer tech. And who knows, with iOS 26 in the mix, the biggest surprise might not be the price tag at all, but what these new devices can actually do.- EndsMust Watch
