For years, iPhones (or their boxes) have said that they were "designed by Apple in California. Assembled in China." But thanks to an escalating trade war between the US and China, that might not be true in the coming years. Reuters reports that two of Apple's biggest manufacturing contractors, Foxconn and Pegatron, are working to expand their facilities in Mexico with an eye toward eventually building iPhones there.

Foxconn's plans aren't final, Reuters reports. Apple hasn't signed off on the idea and declined to comment to Reuters. But Foxconn is reportedly looking to make a final decision this year.
