In the context of a rapidly growing smartphone market, consumers now have more choices than ever.
Not only stopping at big brands like Apple and Samsung , more and more products from Chinese manufacturers like POCO or Xiaomi are attracting a lot of attention. However, at this time, a big question that many people are asking is: Is the durability of these phones really reliable?
Chinese smartphone brands are increasingly improving product quality.
This was a question posed by a user on an online forum who expressed concerns about the quality of phones from Chinese brands, such as the POCO F6 Pro and Vivo X100. He said he had heard many opinions that Chinese smartphones only last 2 to 3 years, and that some manufacturers use poor quality components that cause phones to fail after the warranty period. The thread owner said he had previously used an Asus ZenFone 5Z for 6 years, so he clearly expected the next phone to have similar durability.
During the discussion, many people shared their experiences regarding the durability of different brands. Some said that Redmi, OPPO, and Realme phones are durable, while another user claimed that their POCO F1 still works fine after years of use. They also emphasized that Xiaomi and Redmi phones can last for at least 4 years if there is no hardware failure.
However, many people believe that the durability of a phone depends on how the user uses it. Using the phone for heavy applications for a long time or accidentally dropping it can affect the product's lifespan. Some have pointed out that if Chinese brands are not durable, Korean and Japanese phone brands are not any more durable.
Using them well will help prolong their life, whether they are Chinese smartphones, iPhones or Samsungs.
The author of the article himself used the Huawei Nova 3i phone, which he bought when the product was launched in 2018, and so far the phone is still working well. Even though the rear camera lens was cracked due to a few falls, it can still take pictures and basic tasks on the phone still work. Of course, because the phone only has 4 GB of RAM and uses the Kirin 710 chip, the processing performance is limited for today's modern applications.
This debate shows that in the context of the rapidly growing mobile phone market, consumers need to consider carefully before making a purchase decision, and also need to pay attention to how to use it to ensure the longevity of their devices.
