    As a Chinese, the main reason for Samsung phones to fail in China is not because of the boycott conducted by the media but because of the unfair treatment of the explosion event related to Galaxy Note 7 compared to what Samsung did to the global market. And of course the rise of our domestic brands.

    The boycott only accelerated the inevitable. In terms of Android phones, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oppo, etc are just much better values than Samsung. Without US propaganda and its trade war against China, Samsung would be a much smaller smartphone brand even in the US.

    Why are you only comparing Apple with Samsung? Apple is getting destroyed in China. Consumers are buying China first and Chinese companies will receive 15% subsidies that Apple will likely not be eligible for

    We now live in a world where 30,000 Chinese workers that were employed by Samsung getting laid off equates to "no economic consequences ". I guess as long as it's not your job there are no consequences.

    No Chinese state media has ever made any statement about boycotting Korean products. Stop fucking bullshit! The reason why Samsung was boycotted in China was because of its discriminatory warranty policy for the Chinese market after the Galaxy Note 7 explosion incident Samsung refused to recall the defective phones in China

    Win the Chinese market?

    Stop it

    Apple's problem now is how to make its products maintain their existing market share as much as possible

    In 2024, Apple's mobile phone market share in China will shrink a lot

    Apple can still occupy a certain proportion of the Chinese market, that is because of people's consumption habits, but this phenomenon has begun to ebb, because Apple has no innovation ability

    Chinese people prefer Chinese mobile phones with innovative technology

    Samsung mobile phones have disappeared from the Chinese market for nearly ten years

    With a title like that I'm not even going to watch this video. While Samsung may struggle in China. Apple most certainly did NOT win. Market share reports show them as fourth and falling. And with the failure of Apple intelligence and their phones generally falling years behind in terms of functionality and stability they are going to fall further.

    I owned one-plus 6t at around 2018. Still the best price/performance phone I owned. My cousin still uses it till this day. It was around 600£

    China doesn't "Depend" on Apple. They just buy Apple because like the rest of the world, Apple has situated itself to be the LV, Ferrari and other luxury brand there is. That's the biggest reason so many people buy Apple's stuff, even though it's over price and not worth it.
