Going through the forums, I see comments that are quite disrespectful of Chinese brands, not because of political reasons, but the general belief carried forward from previous decades that Chinese products are substandard and of poor quality.

This isn't true for smartphones. In fact, this isn't true for most products today. Today, the more apt classification is VFM (value for money) products and overpriced products. Both are of good quality, but the ones owned by companies in the west are just overpriced, not necessarily better quality.

On the smartphone front, all smartphones competing in the same segment have (almost) identical hardware components inside. Each type of component used are sourced from the same manufacturer. For example, the processor comes from Qualcomm or Mediatek, display comes from Samsung or LG, camera from Sony or Samsung, etc. 

Smartphones from Chinese brands like OnePlus, Oppo, Vivo, iQOO, Xiaomi, etc. areexcellent, value for money products. They are in no way inferior to products made from Samsung.

The only differentiating factor is the software. Some of these Chinese brands have ads built into their software, and Samsung too is guilty of doing that. This is to make up for money they lose due to aggressive pricing. That can be taken care of using a firewall. But they are no more bloated than Samsung's OneUI.

Samsung's OneUI is the same bloat it once used to be with TouchWiz branding, but that's another topic I'll write about in a separate post.

Unless you have actually used phones of Chinese brands, AND, unless you can actually demonstrate why they are of substandard quality, you should just STOP making hollow statements like that.

In short,DON'T MAKE TALL CLAIMS ABOUT ANYTHING IF YOU HAVE NO FIRST HAND EXPERIENCE.

Cheers!
