There is no point for the price fight. Xiaomi and other china manufacturers sell their phones at much lower profit margin, earning much less per unit sold, so what they did was to sell their devices near/at cost to drive sales and hopefully someone will subscribe to the the service they provide.
Apple on the other end, target high end market and their profit margin is MUCH MUCH higher than any other OEM. There is no point for them to change strategy for the foreseeable future.

QUOTE(attw @ Mar 2 2015, 10:15 PM) Oh yeah, finally a keyboard that is usable for mobile devices running THREE different operating systems. Thank you, Microsoft! But when will that Microsoft Universal Foldable Keyboard be available on Malaysian or Singaporean shores? Thinking of getting it, if the price is right!

In a nutshell: Xiaomi / Vivo / Oppo = for those on a shoestring budget (super-affordable but quality can be suspect, unfortunately  ) Samsung / LG / Lenovo / Huawei = middle-range and with something for almost everyone Apple = high-end smartphone a la Louis Vuitton or BMW! Microsoft Lumia = emerging brand of the future... This post has been edited by THTgadgets.com: Mar 3 2015, 04:01 PM
