Chinese cell phones: The pros and cons of buying cheap


Everyone wants a smartphone. Why not play it smart?
Whether we like the idea or not almost all appliances we use are made in China. The country is currently the world’s manufacturing base, churning out cheap products ranging from common pins to automobiles. They may be cheap but sometimes these products can be of very good quality.
But not often.
Normally, Chinese goods are what we like to call, expendable.
The term “China” or “Chinese” has almost become interchangeable with third-rate – especially in the cellphone market.  So, are fake “Chinese” cellphones as good as the real thing? Trust me, I am uniquely qualified to answer this question.  I have lost two cell phones and preferred to buy Chinese cell phones again and again rather than any other brand.
Why go Chinese
Most of Chinese cell phones have the same features. The only difference between the two leading brands NKTEL and QMobile is that one has an Internet option and the other does not.
  • Motion application. This feature is not available in any other brand except these Chinese cell phones. When watching a video, listening to audio or viewing pictures if you turn your mobile 90 degrees the video, audio and picture will also turn accordingly.
  • Fake atmosphere. Another catchy feature which is not in any other brand is the built-in library of background sounds of places like shopping mall, walking on a road and in a restaurant. Now when you call someone you get an option to call normally or to add a background sound which gives the impression that you are in a particular place.
  • Dual Sim A popular feature by which you can use two numbers simultaneously on a single cell phone.
  • Bluetooth is also included.
  • Extendible memory of upto 2GB allows easy transferring files without memory issues.
