Everything Made In China? Even the Laptop? I was shock that china is duplicating everyting! Sorry chinese people no offense pls. I'm just worried that everthing china has made has low quality. Even Acer aspire 4520 is made in china! So I was hoping that this won't break easily. My Digicam is BenQ made in china. So this means this eletronic devices is not that good in quality? Laptops & Notebooks - 4 Answers Random Answers, Critics, Comments, Opinions : 1 : Actually, it means very little. The devices are still made by the various manufacturers to their specifications and quality. The only reason 'everything' is made in China these days is because the labour costs are much lower than in Europe or the USA. 2 : Just because an item is made in China does not mean it is of low quality. What really matters when considering item quality are the quality of the components and the manufacturing process involved in making the components. Oxygen free copper audio cables made in China will still be better than bog standard steel audio cables made in silicone valley. 3 : No, quality doesn't necessarily decrease because it was manufactured in china. Almost every electronics manufacturer (laptops, cell phones, mp3 players, cameras, etc) sources at least some part of their devices to China. Ipods are made in china and their perceived quality is quite high. It depends on the investment in quality parts and the level of quality control. Having said that, I've seen a lot of Acer laptops fail because of poor quality (ie cheap) parts. Not because they're "made in china" 4 : Hi! i am afraid its true that everything is now Made in China because of the low labor costs---The quality is also good---we have got a lot to learn from the Chinese!!---------cheers! |
