Actually it's the customer who dictates the quality of parts. As all of our modern phones attest to, the Chinese are fully capable of producing high quality products.

The Chinese will build to whatever quality standards you desire. The "cheap Chinese" products we all like to bash are in the most part, our fault!

Thanks, Tom Hargrave

not all goods "Made in China" are bad...

it depends on the company that ordered the goods to be made... quality of the alloys, plastic, glass etc etc.. if those companies skim on the quality of raw material to make more profit then the goods will suffer... Apple computer, Nikon, Sony, Canon etc etc are "Made in China" now...

labor cost aside... it's the raw material that dictates the quality of the goods... so the blame is on greedy corporations that put the bet on the obsolescence behavior of the consumers...
