    my sister ended up with a chinese clone of a nokia, its terrible.

    also the reason they can do it is because the official factories are located in china, so they simply run the production lines out of hours and off the record. iphones are actually made by a chinese company called foxconn (they also make computer parts). So really, its not chinese technology at all, its illicit use of official technology and designs.

    I see. Yup, its terrible. But you get what you get for the price. If they use the same tech and design, why does it still sucks? why not make the same original and sell it with a different name but its the same product? The only thing that will change is the brand and price.

    I imagine they cant use the official component stocks or people would notice them going missing. so they have to use cheaply sourced alternatives or rejected official components.

    And China would care cause? But i see your point. Maybe that why the clone can't replicate the 3G part of the original. The rest like WLAN, touchscreen, and some of it even has a analog tv capability can be made.

    you'll find that a lot of electronic products you think are american/some other nationality are actually contracted out to chinese factories because its cheaper. over 95% of foxconn's business comes from making products for other companies to sell.
