Over the last few years, the smartphone market has greatly changed. Major mobile phone brands like Samsung and Apple have been leading the premium smartphone market with innovative and captivating products and designs.

The biggest competitors to these already established mobile giants are the little known manufacturers from China. The growth of China’s Android-based smartphone brands have been incredible with Xiaomi Inc, a privately owned electronics company in China, being ranked as the third largest smartphone distributor in the world. And this trend is only set to grow as other Chinese brands come up with products that are able to compete in the market.

To think that just a few years ago people would want nothing to do with China products because of quality. Yet today everyone cannot fail to take notice of how the country has started to build itself as a source of cheap products and implementing measures to address quality issues.

Nothing beats China’s Android smartphones when it comes to affordability. What kind of a smartphone can you buy with $200? If you are a conservative buyer who would prefer a phone from the world’s leading mobile manufacturers, the best you can get is probably a dual core smartphone with 1GB RAM. Yet it is possible to get an Octa Core China Android smartphone.

It’s likely that you’ll be seeing more China-made mobile handsets in the hands of the people around you in the near future.
