How to buy a smartphone in China and not to plunge

Over the last decade, China shows the best economic development. This country does not care about the financial crisis and other misunderstandings that lead to reflect almost the whole world. Celestial has already reached a level that allows to supply products not only the domestic market but also the whole of Europe.

For many people in our country, China remained the country of communism, kung fu and cheap players. But we believe that the world of IT giants, such as ZTE and Huawei, have already managed to rapidly break into the top world producers. A less well-known companies, even before he could get rid of the offensive label is actively gaining the attention of consumers outside China. And basically, due to the fact that their phones have baboutlshim functions than could offer the consumer the European brands for the same cost.

«Made in China» may be different or Why book smartphones in China?

As you know, our people like to live Curly, but cheap. And so he began to realize that the logo «Made in China», too, is different. You can find Chinese «iPhoni» or «Nokea», which is unlikely to shine quality, and it is possible to choose a smartphone presented by ZTE or Huawei firms. The latter we have already told

on our YouTube-Channel. And of course, we must not forget about the Lenovo! These devices are definitely not going in stuffy basements little hands of starving Chinese children.

All the salt of the situation is that most Android-devices anyway made in China. So no matter what you choose: Samsung, LG, Asus, Sony, all the same, in fact your smartphone will be Chinese. The reason that the big brands choose this country as a production base, lies in the fact that the cost of the smartphone much cheaper collected in the West.

So we got to the bottom: the main feature of smartphones from China - a tasty price. But here's the catch... Once smartphone safely leave the Chinese factory and go to conquer the world, its cost, yet low, will start to grow into corporate costs, advertising costs and other necessary, at first glance, things. And when a smartphone rolled into your country, do not be surprised of its high cost. This is a normal situation. As they say, nothing personal, just business.

Some large companies, such as Apple, deliberately add value to their electronic gadgets by about 33%. Others, such as Amazon, sold almost at cost devices in the hope of earning money for their own content. Between these extremes there is a whole range of business models and business practices.

The advantage of Chinese wholesalers that major expenses and advertising costs, which make up the notorious 33%, are absent. As a result, we have the opportunity to buy a good Android is almost at cost.

Purchase of Android-smartphone from China - a good prospect if you want to save their money. But note that if you are not ready for the challenges that will arise in the way between you and your gadget better already hold the desired device within 10 minutes - to leave this venture, go to the nearest store and hands.

If the obstacles you are not confused, then just be aware that you will buy smart to distant lands, from an unknown company, relying only on the technical characteristics of the device, and a couple of his photos. Inexperienced beginners in this regard will be very difficult.

Yes, there is a risk. And where it is not? Ordering smartphone from China, be prepared for the unexpected. You just need to understand how you need to act to reduce all risks to a minimum, which must be ordered a smartphone, who can be trusted with this responsibility. And, most importantly, how do you know that something has gone wrong.

Our project Revolver Lab I prepared a list of recommendations that will help you reduce the chance of disappointment from the purchase of smartphone in China.

list of recommendations

1. Only buy from well-known supplier

Naturally, such a purchase you can only do on the Internet. Finding a good wholesaler in China - not an easy task. But based on my experience, I advise you to look for them on Chinavasion.com resources, McBub.com, Merimobiles.com and iPadAlternative.com.

Look for complete information on the smartphone, which is going to buy, because it can be in two accounts run into nerazlochennuyu model. But such challenges you to anything.

If you thought that only from the lineup Samsung or HTC you will be dazzled, then I hasten to disappoint you. With Chinese smartphones situation is much worse. You can thoroughly confuse the insane amount of gadgets on Android'e that now offer our Chinese brothers.

And this is the explanation. The fact is that in China there are companies that operate solely on the domestic market. If you remember, this is not a small country, and therefore, a potential buyer, it can always find. In addition, these companies by the number of models produced simply can not be compared with the same Apple or Samsung. This means that their range is updated rarely.

So you have to look for testimonials of people who have already bought the device you are interested, see detailed reviews on YouTube, in order to understand what is a gadget. You can, by the way, come here to this item tabletrepublic.com. Here you can find quite a lot of real reviews of Chinese gadgets.

2. Pay your purchase through PayPal payment system

Why PayPal? If you use this payment order, you are guaranteed not to be deceived. And all because everything is reliable and easy to ugliness.

Briefly explain how this works. If the payment goes through PayPal, money remains, as it were "frozen" in the system. In other words, the seller will not receive your money within 45 days after the date of payment. And if the seller would be a bad person and will try to deceive you, you open dispute with PayPal, to prove his innocence, and then returning the money to you.

By the way, if after payment took 40 days, and the smartphone you have not seen, immediately start a debate about the refund. Because after 45 days money drip supplier, the goods can not reach, and you will just have to shake the air with their fists.

3. Choose a reliable delivery method

Thus, the transaction was executed, and the smartphone is a long journey. Those who buy abroad, it is important to realize that sending to cross half the globe before it reaches the recipient. Therefore, if possible, use the most reliable e-mail services. Most of the sellers of the goods delivered by courier, with the cost of such services will be about $ 30 or higher.

If you want to test the strength of their patience, you can use the normal postal service. In this case, you should not be surprised that your smartphone will come to you in the best case a month, well, at worst - three months. And by the way, do not order anything in the holidays because you will have to wait even longer.

4. How to track your parcel?

Each parcel has its own unique "tracking-number." He is usually indicated in the upper right corner of the postal receipt and consists of four letters and nine digits.

For example, China's number will be as follows: RB205078665CN

Non-type szs621197 (China) - interior and make it impossible to track the parcel to international destinations. By the way, after the order of your smartphone does not immediately get to the post office and will be traced, on average, 10 days later. So up to this point it is not necessary to beat anxiety. The gap between exports and imports is 14-25 days. And that's okay too. Again, in terms of holidays stretch expectations.

By the way!

Those who live in Ukraine, it is necessary to know that the direct flights of China-Ukraine is not, because "Aerosvit" had us "please" their bankruptcy. Your smartphone is on the way you will have time to visit Vienna or Frankfurt. Perhaps his fate would be buried in Beijing. It all depends on what flight he will get. Accordingly, the passage of parcels increases.

Curiosity will give a couple of references to the services through which you can track the parcel through the Internet:

5. Remember Sales Tax

In our country has a system of taxation on goods purchased abroad. Therefore, when calculating the budget should be clearly understood that the cost of the smartphone will be equal to the sum of the actual commodity price + shipping + sales tax. As a rule, if the delivery is made by courier, such problems will not arise.

If we consider all these details, the process of buying a smartphone from China will be simple and painless for your nervous system. Yes, and you will save a lot of money.
