🔬 Apple to open a new lab in Shenzhen to test the iPhone, iPad and Vision Pro under extreme conditions

🥼 The new lab in Shenzhen is expected to boost Apple's research capabilities. The new facility will focus on testing new materials and production techniques, ensuring that the iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro can withstand extreme conditions, from intense physical activity to harsh temperatures.

📍 The choice of Shenzhen is significant due to its proximity to many of Apple's suppliers. Apple first announced plans for the new lab in March. Despite diversifying its production capacity to other countries like Vietnam and India, China remains a key manufacturing hub for Apple. The new Shenzhen facility is part of a broader expansion, which includes research and development centers in Beijing, Shanghai, and Suzhou.

💸 Apple has invested over 1 billion yuan (approximately $138 million) in these facilities.
