I've recently purchased an iphone 15 (international variant) from NOON, UAEs largest ecommerce platform.
However the received phone/box says its made in INDIA with model no MTP03HN/A. I've always seen and used made in China LLA phones, will this phone work internationally with any network and in any country? Does it have warranty, and if the quality will be similar to other models like LLA or any issues with quality or any other faults.
Should I return it back or is it ok, pls help/guide.

Does the phone say "manufactured in India", or does it say "assembled in India". Big difference.
If the parts in the phone were manufactured in one country, but the phone was assembled in another country, is that an issue for you?

Apple began manufacturing a portion of the iPhone 15 in India. So it is perfectly normal to find an iPhone 15 made in India.
Here's a breakdown of your questions:
- Network Compatibility: As long as the iPhone 15 is unlocked, it will work internationally with any network and in any country that supports the phone's frequency bands.
- All iPhone models are world phones, so you can use them almost anywhere. Whether you are a GSM or CDMA network customer, you can roam internationally on GSM networks in over 200 countries or regions around the world. Availability of LTE data varies in some countries or regions and depends on carrier support for certain LTE radio frequencies. Contact your wireless carrier for more information regarding international roaming policies and rates.
- Warranty: Yes, the phone will have a warranty if you purchased it from an authorized Apple reseller. If you don't opt for Apple Care or Apple Care+ then...
- IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE, iPAD, APPLE TV, AND HOMEPOD SERVICE.
- Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone, iPad, Apple TV, and HomePod to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
- Quality: Apple maintains strict quality control standards for all its manufacturing facilities around the world, so the quality of your iPhone 15 will be the same regardless of whether it was made in India or China.
- Returning the Phone: Ultimately the decision is yours, but there's no functional difference between a China-made and India-made iPhone 15. If you're happy with the phone, there's no reason to return it.

My opinion......this is a non issue. You can find articles online that claim to prove that the earth is flat.

Hi
actually i get the phone from noon 2 months ago with the same model number and it’s also shows made in India and to be noticed the phone is working properly and in high quality I don’t notice any difference between other models and nothing to worry about as it’s completely covered by apple warranty once you open the phone you will see it on my opinion it’s great nothing to worry about
thank you

iphone 15 may be the first one to be assembled in India but certainly will not be the last.

Assembled in India, just never saw or used an iPhone that was assembled in India, upon searching read some articles with quality issues till last year. I got a good deal online, just wondering if it's all good or is there a cause for concern.
