My personal opinion (not necessarily correct): it means that electronic industry could no longer only compete on low prices but newer designs and newer technologies, for better or worse, because Shenzhen, China can always catch up with your price fast with its astonishingly cheap parts.

There are already plenty of cheap Chinese phones you can buy. Even their flagship phones with top of the line specs are half price. They just don't support all overseas bands yet.
