India Overtakes China: Top US Smartphone Supplier

India has emerged as the leading smartphone manufacturer for the US market, surpassing China in the second quarter of 2025. This significant shift reflects the growing success of the “Make in India” initiative.

Exports of Indian-made smartphones to the US witnessed a remarkable 240% year-on-year surge during this period. These exports now account for a substantial 44% of all US smartphone imports.

The rise of India as a global manufacturing hub is evident in this development. Apple and Samsung, key players in the smartphone industry, experienced notable changes in their shipment volumes during Q2 2025, though specific details remain undisclosed.

This landmark achievement underscores India’s growing prowess in the global electronics manufacturing sector. The implications for job creation and economic growth within India are considerable, potentially attracting further foreign investment and technological advancements. The success also highlights the strategic importance of strengthening domestic manufacturing capabilities for national security and economic independence.
