01 November 2024
The reason is the same – phones need to have 40% local content.

          Google is an advertisement and broadcasting (YouTube) company that, occasionally, sells phones and other gadgets. Bet not even 5% of Indonesian phones are Pixels. Next!

              +1 country with stupid law that decides what citizens can't buy and use

                Good. Beta phones should be banned globally, as sale phones! The actual beta testers aren't paying the price we needs to pay for beta testing the units!

                    Good, don't let globalisation turn into colonisation.

                      Don't think Indonesia is a lucrative enough market to force Apple/Google to change their global value chain strategy just to become eligible for selling in the market.

                        I don't think the sales of pixel is that good over there to have the investment there. Google may pull out of Indonesia.

                          They might as well ban all imported phones since they won't meet the minimum local content anyway.

                                  A short round trip to Singapore should fix this issue if you're desperate enough to get one.

                                      Good. Nobody should be scammed into buying pixel phones for 1000$.
