Xiaomi bribing Indians to stop being conservative?

Xiaomi is announcing pre-registrations the all powerful Mi3 on July 15. For a price of ₹14999,  it does sound absurd that we would be getting a Snapdragon 800 package with all the perks of android at this price but the truth prevails.

Even the dumbest dummy can conclude within a glance that this price tag is absolutely insane for a flagship specked phone with quad-core at 2.3GHz Krait processor paired with Adreno 330 GPU 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage. Is it a way of taunting money-monger big players that their time is over or is it bribing the common man to try them out so that they can drive out these senseless beliefs out  of their head. Yes that sounds true.
Here are some common misconceptions about Chinese products and why that should be changed.


  1. China is an Antonym for Original

  2. Its true that a lot of duplicate products are made in China thanks to their economic and industrial structure but that does not apply to everything out there. If one just uses a friend'd pen lying on a table for a signature without his information he doesn't need to be rigorously called 'a thief'. Similarly if some produce duplicate goods then its wrong to believe that everyone is doing the same.
    China is an antonym for original
    China antonym for original? Seriously I think it should be the other way round because everything is made in china. 
  3. Cheap Reputation

  4. Well if you pay cheap you get a cheap product and nobody can do any magic to deliver a first class product at a third class rate. One gets what he pays for (and usually a little more compared to completion.) 
  5. Low quality

  6. Absolutely wrong. They come in a range of qualities and it depends on what the buyer chooses. For example the build quality of the Oppo N1, Oppo Find 7, OnePlus One and Gionee Elife E7 have been widely acclaimed and is comparable(and sometimes superior) to the top players who go either too much metal(HTC One) too much plastic(Samsung) or brick blocks(Sony). Considering the Xiaomi Mi3 itself, we can see that it features a magnesiun alloy frame.
  7. Not Guaranteed to Last

  8. Most of the people who own a Micromax, Lava or Karbonn phones have never raised such a complaint. Use it as it is intented to be and it will last forever. In fact I own a Zen Ultraphone 701 HD myself and never came across any chance to raise such a complaint.
  9. No Costumer Support/Pathetic Service

  10. Well, nobody buys a phone to destroy it the other day and then go to the service center. And thus, this is not a major area of concern. Sometimes accidents do happen and and that is the only time service centers need to approached. And in such cases they handle the products pretty decently (at-least in my opinion) and charge reasonably (unlike the big shots who charge as much as the phone itself!).
Send that man to China
So do you agree or do you say this?
