Google Plans to Move All Pixel Production Out of China by 2027 to Vietnam and India
Google plans to shift all production of its Pixel smartphones, smartwatches, and wireless earbuds out of China by 2027, moving manufacturing to Vietnam and India. This decision follows successful high-end Pixel production in Vietnam and aims to diversify supply chains amid US-China tensions. Google does not sell Pixel phones in China, easing the transition. The company seeks to increase Pixel shipments despite rising component costs, with Vietnam expected to become the main manufacturing base and India playing a growing role.
