                Mobilemaster, 13 Aug 2024I wonder when where will be a made in USA phone? Or made in... moreBecause the vocal minority complains mostly about pricing, expect them to complain on a Western-based phone. Remember how they bashed the Nokia XR21 and Fairphone 5?

                Also, it isn't both economically feasible and profitable to completely manufacture electronic items in Western Countries. That's the exact same reason why an Apple product made in the USA will never see the light of day, unless they shift their focus from raking in profits to improving quality.

                  droidnexus, 13 Aug 2024It's your inside character that is shitty not the Foxc... moreMy Nokia 8, as well as the other phones in use by my family members and friends (especially Nokias) were also manufactured in India. The quality standard appears to be enforced everywhere by the OEM, so we can expect the same quality, regardless of region.

                    Its Milan, 13 Aug 2024hey Indian here and can confirm the Foxconn facilities here... moreIt's your inside character that is shitty not the Foxconn india. I can tell because many are using iphone 15 series made in india and there are no problems in it. You don't work in Foxconn india, they are very hardworking people.

                      BMHater12, 13 Aug 2024So, more prone to issues like dead motherboards, green line... moreIt's the problem of faulty screens used in oneplus, Xiaomi or other smartphone having the issues of green lines. Why made in india samsung, apple don't have green line?

                        Mobilemaster, 13 Aug 2024I wonder when where will be a made in USA phone? Or made in... moreTo understand this, you need to look for outside sources besides your western msm.

                        I stood with Nokia, despite not being european, till the very day they closed their Finnish factories.

                        But how will they compete when the rest of the competition went to China?

                        Main use of outsourcing was to make Chinese envy the west. So they will overthrow the CPC.

                        Except it never happened and they're now able to compete back lol.

                            I wonder when where will be a made in USA phone? Or made in Italy, or made in Hungary? I just wonder why the west is not producing electronics anymore? I know salaries are different in the west, but I think it would be good to produce things somewhere else too, so would be a balance.

                              So, more prone to issues like dead motherboards, green lines on the OLED panel and others like on India produced Xiaomi phones?
