How long have people here managed to use cheap Chinese devices without any deterioration in the quality of service that they provide ?
Pick up any electronic gadget of any make / brand, 90% chances are that, it will be assembled / made in China.
So it all depends on you, how much extra you want to pay for warranty / brand etc...
China has different qualities for different regions so prices will be different too.
They have different prices for different qualities, and regions with higher paying capacity get higher quality. Thus a PK168 apple phone purchased in the US and EU has the best quality (battery, case, packaging and proly internal components) followed by gulf region followed by SE Asia, followed by South Asia. So if we did pay more we might get better quality.
Before it became very popular the PK168 sold with two batteries, but due to very high demand is now sold with one battery. Out of 4 one charger cum connecting cable seems to be intermittent. On close inspection i found the cable outer insulation damaged at the usb end, though not sure if it was shipped that way or went bad at our end.
