My friend bought one in 2007 in China. It was cheaper than in US by not much. The current exchange rate is different right now.
i recommend you buying in australia or USA
it is cheaper in china but low quality
For sure is much cheaper but currently, PC & Laptops from China are not that popular yet. Japanese are still enjoying the sale in the market in Asia & the world. Australia & USA are also not in high demand by the Asian.
My friend just bought a laptop in China, and paid almost what I paid for mine in the US. Parts may be cheaper, but the really cheap places have iffy quality.
If you look into the global supply chain, China is making staff for US to consume. Hence it is much cheaper in US not in China. For instance, Macbook in China is 50% expensive than in US, same as Dell, HP and etc.
the delivery equals the prices
Not much cheaper at all. However, there is no sales tax in China.
People who talk about quality of computer has NO knowledge about computer whatsoever.
Dell, HP, etc. do NOT produce computers. They buy CPUs, RAM sticks, hard drives, motherboards, video cards, sound cards, tower cases, power supplies, then put them together in under 20 min. each and resell at a rip off prices. It’s like you buy the hotdog, and buns, and catchup, then put them together. It doesn’t matter if it’s your mom or your dad put them together. The quality is the same!
It’s the same companies who make these computer parts.
The only two major CPU makers are Intel and AMD.
The only two major video cards makers are Nvidia and ATI.(ATI was bought by AMD. Intel also make some onboard video but nothing high end)
Hard drive companies - Western Digital, etc.
Sound card companies - Creative Labs, etc.
Motherboard companies - Asus, Abit, etc.
etc. etc.
Whether the computer is sold in the U.S. or in China, they all contain the SAME parts from the SAME companies listed above! That’s the reason why the prices aren’t much different in China or in the U.S.
I don’t buy completed computers. I buy parts and put them together which is EXACTLY what Dell etc. does! (they buy parts from above companies, and put them together. Like I said before, it takes only 20 min with 2 hands and a ***** driver) Only difference is that I put BETTER(I don’t pair up fast CPU with slow memory and onboard video to create bottlenecks like Dell does) parts in there according to my needs. In the end, with the same amount of money, I build BETTER computers than Dell can offer. OR, With the same hardware parts, I save lots of money than buying from Dell.
By the way, I’ve been building computers for the last eight years. ALL video cards and motherboards I bought in the U.S. have labels of “Made in China”. It only means China did the production. The technology and specifications are still belong to the above companies. By the way, it also means the LARGE MAJOR portion of the profit also goes to these companies instead of Chinese manufacturers in case you think China “stole” the money.
P.S. The founders of Nvidia and ATI were both Chinese. Memory chips were also invented by Chinese. All motherboard companies are in fact Taiwanese companies, whose population are 98% Chinese, and their productions are always in mainland China. Intel chips usually are being produced in Malaysia. I also had AMD chip bought in the U.S. as “made in China”.
