This development officially puts an end to the iPhone 16 ban saga in Indonesia, which lasted for over 166 days. The devices were originally banned back in late October following unmet investment commitments from Apple. One thing led to another, and Apple had eventually entered a negotiation game with the Indonesian government with reports suggesting that Apple had at one point raised its investment commitments in the country as high as $1 billion.

According to the latest report, the final deal was set at a $300 million investment from Apple. It includes a manufacturing facility for Apple AirTag trackers in Indonesia and a separate factory for accessories. Cupertino is also expected to set up additional R&D centers and invest in local academies for students.
