Really annoyed that good cheap smartphones in Indian never make it to the west. Literally all cheap smartphones available in the west are trash phones with trashy chipsets.

Curry phones aren't status symbols so there's no chance they will be sold in the West.

They're not exactly Indian phones. They are basically chinese companies making the phone and sourcing the parts from India.

People do buy cheap good phones as a second phone.

Actually my Moto is made in India and it works fine. But, admittedly, most stuff from India is crap compared to China.

Congrats ricecels, at least you have the industry and strength of your home countries as a coping factor.

How much was the Moto?

Indian stuff is crap because the government don't help the sector and also harass and jail people that want to make high quality goods.

If steve jobs was born in india then he would have been harassed by the bureaucracy and asked for bribes.

They don't work on US bands and there's no big demand, the poor in America can afford flagship phones and turd worlders obviously can't
