Links? While basically all cell phones have some components that are made in China, I have read previously that most Samsung phones are assembled in South Korea.
Just google about Samsung and their presence in China. Here’s one link I previously posted about Samsung and their factories in China.

Here’s a link about where Apple iPhone components are made, from around the world, with many made in the USA. It’s designed in California, and is more American than you think. It may say made in China only because it’s primarily assembled there, but it has many USA and European components. Some iPhones have been assembled elsewhere, like Brazil & India, and soon may be assembled in Wisconsin. You won’t find that true about Samsung, which primarily has Chinese components.

Here is a link about Samsung’s abuse of it’s employees in China, where they own a major stake in companies making products for Samsung (some wholly owned by Samsung, some making their phones). Whereas Apple has no presence in China other than sales staff, and no abusive practices, Samsung directly employs staff and abuses them.

Actually, 50% of Samsung phones are made in Vietnam.
Those phones will not be subject to tariffs on China.
This keeps pressure on Apple to eat any tariff costs and not raise prices.
