Google has told suppliers to start manufacturing its Pixel smartphones in India by next quarter at the latest, as part of its plan to ship more than 10 million Pixel phones this year, according to a Nikkei report.
Last October, Google said it would start manufacturing smartphones in India, with its flagship Pixel 8 smartphone available there in 2024, as it focuses on the key growth market.
The move will also help Google diversify its supply chain from China, Reuters reports. The tech giant will prepare production lines for its flagship Pixel 8 Pro smartphones in the coming weeks and begin production of the phones in April-June, the report said, citing “informed” sources.
The report did not say how many phones Google plans to manufacture in India, nor whether these smartphones will be sold domestically or exported.
