I’d be curious how many phone companies don’t outsource fabrication, even just for final assembly. Maybe Samsung doesn’t? LG, Huawei? And even then I suspect they’d try to retain some capacity with contract assemblers for redundancy in case of a disaster or other issue at their own facility or in case they get an unexpectedly high runner and need extra capacity to meet demand.
