IPad is the most popular tablet computer product in the world, and its main production place is in China. However, due to the impact of labor costs and other factors, the supply chain has changed, and more production capacity may be allocated to Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries.

In 2020, data show that 70% of the world's ipad And nearly 20% of notebook computers are produced in Chengdu, China. But for now, Apple Chengdu may not be able to export 70% of its iPad production capacity when it intends to transfer it.
At present, the global demand for tablet computers is not strong. According to the data previously released by canalys, the global tablet computer shipment in the first quarter of this year was 38.6 million units, a year-on-year decrease of 3%, of which Apple iPad shipment decreased by 2% to 14.9 million units. However, the iPad is still the first in terms of shipment volume and has no rival.
In China, 1.2 million iPads were shipped in the first quarter of this year, with a share of 26%, but a year-on-year decline of 29%. It is believed that the reason for this is due to the limited supply of iPad. It is reported that in order to increase the output of the 13 series, apple "borrowed" some general-purpose components originally used for iPads, resulting in a significant reduction in iPad shipments.
