I won't buy items made in China because China is a threat to freedom and democracy.

Some iPhone Xr's are made in India if that is any assistance to you. Also, be careful which Samsung you purchase as some of them are assembled in China and all Samsung phones have some parts that were made in China. LG, Pixel, etc. are in the same situation.
There are some flip phones available that have no parts made in China.
There is good news for you if you need a computer, the Mac Pro is assembled in the USA.
But you are pretty much out of luck on monitors and televisions.
Not sure why you are boycotting but you are going to find it very difficult for electronics. You will be able to buy some Craftsman tools again in late 2020, they will be made in a new plant in Fort Worth, Texas.
Taiwan supports freedom and i would gladly buy a phone made there.
Foxconn is a Taiwanese company ... get your facts right. I simply am choosing to use my purchasing power to support freedom and democracy... those are two things absent in China
Apple’s primary contractor, Foxconn has assembly plants in China, Taiwan, Brazil, Mexico, Europe, India and several other counties I cannot remember. They even own a TV assembly plant in Wisconsin. They also own Sharp in Japan. They make electronics for Apple, Dell, Nokia, Amazon, Sony PS consoles, MS Xbox consoles, etc. so if your going to avoid buying electronics from China or from a parent company headquartered in China, then your going to need to research your brands very, very carefully. The majority of consumer electronics are assembled in China, Taiwan or S. Korea at plants owned by one major corporation (Foxconn is the publicly traded company name, it is incorporated as Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd., which reportedly sees close to $5 trillion in annual global revenue).
iPhones have been made in China and Taiwan, and the new iPhone SE has been reported to perhaps also being assembled in Brazil - all at Foxconn plants though.
I guess that’s the point, at least when it comes to consumer electronics. There is one massive corporation that makes a massive proportion of consumer electronic products, regardless of brand name on said products. That company is not headquartered in China, but Taiwan (whether or not Taiwan is part of China I leave to the politicians).
But that same company has plants in over a dozen countries, and employees thousands of people in each country they do business in. So if you’re trying to avoid buying “Chinese” consumer electronics, make sure you don’t own any Sony PlayStations, any MS Xboxes, any Amazon Kindles, no Nokia cell phones, no Wii consoles, and goodness knows what else devices they assembly for other companies. As of last year, FoxConn plants actually make about half of all consumer electronic products, regardless of brand name on said products.
And those iPhones that FoxConn assembles in China include parts manufactured in well over a dozen other countries, all of whom make similar parts for other electronic assemblers in many countries. So when boycotting electronics “assembled in China”, who exactly are you boycotting?
The reality is, regardless of where in the world they are made, they are almost certainly being made by a company incorporated in Taiwan. That same company is international, with assembly plants all over the world, including China. Apple doesn’t comment on where particular models are made, so where FoxConn is making them is never entirely clear. The iPhone 4 was made mostly in Taiwan, not China, and others have been made in various Foxconn plants as demand and logistics dictate.
And with SARS-Cov-2, even FoxConn is looking to shift more manufacturing from China to the other countries they have plants in.

You are preaching to the choir now, I didn't raise the issue nor do I support a boycott. And in a post that was deleted I mentioned rare metals that are mined in countries that also don't have a great human rights record. My only point is the people I know that are from Taiwan don't consider it to be part of China so are we boycotting the people, the general name, or the country?
I do have an idea of who to boycott but I'll stop there.
But I do appreciate the information you have provided. And since they are not a US company they cannot be labeled a monopoly here. The acquisition spree does make a lot of sense.
Heck yeah, doesn’t matter if it’s in China or not, not to start a war over here, I’m not to make my account suspended, but, just because you’re afraid of trying to make you some sort of coronavirus, doesn’t mean that iPhones with the virus, it’s okay, there is no need to be scared, just calm down,

So when the company incorporated in Taiwan has assembly plants in Taiwan, China, Brazil, India and elsewhere, and uses components In those product assemblies made in the EU, Japan, S. Korea, the USA and elsewhere, how do you decide what to buy or not? Who are you boycotting?
Foxconn’s plants basically assembly units for companies - they don’t make the components that go into that assembly.
Most iPhones, are made in China.
You are welcome to buy whatever you want.
The Foxcon building in Wisconsin is empty. Nothing is being assembled there.
All iPhone 11s are built in China.
SE might be assembled in India, I wouldn't bet on it
But in that case is the OP also boycotting. Taiwan?
I guess that depends if he supports China's claim that Taiwan is theirs.
Why not make it easy - Be a MacGyver and make an iPhone that suits your needs - it'll pay off for sure (you'll learn a lot on your own)!
