Mobile phones : Nokia

There are many brands of Mobile phones available here. And, now there are many unbranded ones too - made in China. But I understand that these Chinese phones are comparable or better than many of the branded ones like Nokia. But they are available here at a fraction of the cost of Nokias.

What's wrong ? Why are these Chinese phones so cheap ? They are certainly good phones too !
Why are the brandeds (like Nokia) so costly? They are not that far superior to the Chinese ones !

What I think is that companies like Nokia are squeezing the Indian consumers. That's very bad, and should not be permitted. I suggest, all should raise a voice against this. Or, the best thing is to boycott Nokia (and other such high and unjustified priced phones) . I am ready to throw off my Nokia 6233 (a good for nothing phone, for its high price tag ), for a cheap Chinese phone.

i beg to disagree, feature wise nokia phones are hell better and they adhere to quality and radiation standards all over the world, which is not cheap :)

And there is a rumour that these chinese phones have no imei number which itself is a problem as thse phones cannot be traced. Clue: Terrorism.
