Chinese Cellphones: Worth buying?

Chinese Cellphones: Worth buying?“They’re with the labourers, also with the kids, they’re with the elite, and too with the freaks!” Yea, you must have seen them almost everywhere, almost every class of people carrying them. If you’re still wondering, they are Chinese cellphones. Nothing has invaded our “connected” lives in so convincing a fashion in every possible form. Yet, most of us are sceptical whether to buy them or not.

This article will try to take on points regarding those Chinese phones (“masterpieces” as one might call them cynically, I call ‘em “souvenir of advanced Chinese technology”, LOL) and help you decide if you want to really go for one of them, holding back your fascinations on the ones from Nokia or other reputed stables.

How much do these cost?

Undoubtedly, as all of you know, these things are real cheap, I mean dirt cheap. The value for money one can derive is awesome compared to reputed branded handsets costing 3-10 times a Chinese phone. Once I was chatting with the sales manager of a Chinese phone manufacturer. He quoted that its the cheap labor and economies of scale that they can produce tri SIM mid-range handsets for $40 (<Rs.2000) at their factory. Normally those sell for $80 after being passed on to distributors and retailers including import/export fees. Low end basic ones might cost $15 to produce there, who knows? Read more…
