commonman 228 Report post Posted October 9, 2010 what is the difference with Spice Mi300. Or are they both same Chinese set branded differently? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karthik R 246 Report post Posted October 9, 2010 I had a very bad experience with Videocon V1675 I felt like they are sourcing it from some lame Chinese manufacturer like Huawei and just renaming them. Yeah they are real good in consumer product. But also novices in mobile sector. Their foray into telecom market is also proving as a disaster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KanagaDeepan 1,084 Report post Posted October 9, 2010 NO SIR... Huwaei is Chinese-International-co.. Their products' quality will be not very bad.. But Videocon is rebranding the mobiles made by Ultra-Local-Chinese-Co (cottage Industries type ), just like G-Five, Micromax, Lemon, Spice and few other thousand mobile companies..

xuketo 7 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 Chinese re-branded for sure. Let's wait until someone gets to try it out for real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 I am always surprised with this Chinese Rebranded ones or Cheap chinese stuff perception that many have. Whether one likes or not China is the manufacturing hub of the world today for anything and everthing. Every leading company's stuff is manufactured in China including Apple I Phone. This happens because no country on earth is able to match china as far as low cost manufacturing is concerned. Now companies have price points for their products. An Apple Iphone may cost you in excess of Rs. 40,000/-, HTC may be above Rs. 25,000/-. Does one believe that all the price one pays for top tier brands are exclusively for their quality only. Certain level of quality will always be assured for top brands but you are also playing for the brand value perception which is a subjective psycological attribute in one's mind and companies spend a great deal of money on building the brand value and ultimately recover it from the customers in terms of higher pricing. Whereas companies like Videocon and many other Indian handset manufacturers are more interested in penetrating the mass market with affordable handsets and this market is really huge. They will stick to a certain price point and try to give maximum features within that budget. So again they will opt for Chinese manufacturing which is low cost and will help them get some margin atleast than incurring a loss. Since they are sticking to a certain price point with maximum features, how can one expect product quality like top tier brands. But at the same time, product quality is acceptable to millions of people going by the success of all such Indian brands in the Indian market. Remeber G-Five was placed at 3rd place in handset sales in India in last quarter by an International market research firm. So there is a place for all this companies in Indian Market and a very huge one at that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) Quite right. In fact I have found some of these re-branded phones to be BETTER (with more features at lower price) than equivalent models from the biggies. Have seen some which were about 3 years and going strong. But the problem is getting to know which brand/model is good. However, the concern that plagues all such re-branded handsets is the radiation levels. None of the brands seem to be testing/specifying this, and it is a matter of great concern.

As soon as Videocon Mobiles were introduced I sent them an email asking them about their source of mobiles. I asked them whether they were indulging in rebranding and marketing of Chnese mabufactured handsets or whether they have any manufacturing hub n India? I also asked them the location of such hub if located in India. Believe me, to this day I am awaiting a reply from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sending such emails using words like indulging, rebranding etc and expecting a response . LOL. What do you expect? To share their manufacturing and sourcing details with an unknown faceless person who is not even their customer!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raccoon 53 Report post Posted October 10, 2010 (edited) @vvinayakpai, That is expected. I don't believe they will divulge such info. In fact I have noticed some of these companies trying to slyly market their wares as Indian products; and there are many gullible customers that believe that and even buy them thinking they are supporting "desi" products.
