    Beyond issues of dodgy performance is the issue of safety. We've seen people electrocuted by knock-off device chargers. I can't imagine wanting to risk having the device itself overheat because of a shoddy battery and cause a house fire. The people making these bottom rung devices care nothing about those who are buying them. It all makes you appreciate Apple all the more. Buy from people who care.

    And people complain that iDevices are too expensive when the other spectrum shows exactly what happens when they race to the bottom??  Stupidity on an epic level.


     

    Yup.  But oh well, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

    Whole lotta Apple flattery going on in China.

    Agreed. There is no "Apple tax" but there is an "idiot subsidy".
