That's because most of these morons believe they've got to have the latest I-phone or other people will laugh at them. In the same vein, they must buy a 7-Series BMW or a Mercedes Sports Car when they never go further than the local supermarket.

I spent a whopping RMB900 2 years ago on a Huawei. It does everything I want it to and it's been nothing short of 'perfect' as far as I am concerned. I had an I-phone when I was living in Australia, but swapped it for a Samsung Galaxy as soon as I could. I-phones are an expensive luxury IMHO, and there are other phones that do exactly the same job, if not better, for less than half the cost.
