I believe it’s not made by Chinese I reckon the things made in China is made by western people/ men because the westerners makes things with detail and prestige... this is my thought and they aren’t being paid good wages at all

@Anonymouslyyours86 Fancy things built to high standards for Western firms in China are also built by Chinese nationals - generally with Chinese management.

iPhones are made in Chinese factories owned by a Taiwanese multi-national.

Then how come they’re designed in California @QuixoticSoul

@Anonymouslyyours86 Design and contract manufacturing are vastly different things.

Bottom line is that Apple pays for high quality manufacturing with solid QA, and that’s what their Chinese partners deliver. If you want to pay the bare minimum and have low standards, Chinese will deliver that too.

You’d think they’d have more trillionares in China if that were the case, everyone would be rich @QuixoticSoul
