It should be noted that Samsung has not yet begun manufacturing all of the components in Pakistan. Major components are still manufactured in large-scale factories in Vietnam, China, Korea, and other major regions by Samsung. In Pakistan, these components are easily assembled.

Regardless, this is a significant success for Pakistan, as we are one step closer to having cheaper phones with better customer service in the country. Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, and a few other major brands are also aiming to manufacture crucial components in Pakistan. Xiaomi and Oppo already sell locally produced phones in India, such as the Redmi 10 series.

This was made possible through a joint venture between Samsung and Lucky Motors Corporation, an automotive manufacturer and a sub-brand of Kia Motors. Lucky Motors Co is also in charge of introducing Kia vehicles in Pakistan for the first time.
