Google Reportedly Shifting All Pixel Production Out of China
Google is planning to relocate all Pixel device production out of China beginning next year, sources familiar with the matter told Nikkei Asia. The company has reportedly notified its suppliers of the decision, signaling a major strategic shift for its hardware manufacturing operations.
The move would see Pixel production redirected to other regions, likely in Southeast Asia or India, where several smartphone manufacturers have been diversifying their supply chains in recent years. This shift reflects a broader trend among major tech companies seeking to reduce reliance on Chinese manufacturing amid geopolitical tensions and ongoing supply chain concerns.
The timing and specific destinations for the redirected production remain unclear, and Google has not publicly commented on the reported plans.
