The Huawei P70, P70 Pro, P70 Pro+ and P70 Art Edition are set to be officially unveiled next week if the latest leaks are to be believed. The peculiar design can already be seen in photos, while a data sheet supposedly reveals the specs of the top models.

          My curiosity lies with peeps like the above actually being to walk around their house and not find things Made in China.

          I know I’d be hard pressed, and then components in devices?

              All you need to do is pay a bit extra.

              Like I said in another comment in here, I find it odd that we need/want to pay more for things that don’t actually cost that more but do because some companies can’t run the books right (ie: fat cats and excessive profits) and end up with massive corps having to submit a First Gazette Notice.

              I had no idea what that meant since I found out last night my company I work for here in the UK, has done just that :/

                  Being a consumer means I don’t attribute others ethics, nor ideology, when making a buying decision.

                  I buy things because I’m a consumer of goods that tries to save myself from having to spend more, to line others greedy pockets though.

                  If those are my ethics, call me a dirty consumer perhaps? But people getting paid minimum wages whilst people who do nothing other than tell their sales department to up their price “just because” it doesn’t come from a certain geography is like chopping your nose off to spite your face IMO.

                  edit: I found a perfect example of this. Berghaus fleece Vs a Amazon basics, or hell, even a Regatta fleece. Just the badge, and nothing else.

              at a very low price

              This is another thing that makes me curious.

              I live up North of the UK where prices are cheaper, wages are lower. Much much lower than the same costs etc down…south of the very same country.

              Things costing less than getting priced up for the sake of it, simply because of geography, is kinda baffling.
