> But these monitors are still way too expensive for me
I will never be an early adopter for that precise reason. I _do_ think the monitors look quite lovely but I am not interested in a product with such a hefty price tag while being made in China. (Full disclosure, I will go out of my way to avoid Chinese products even if the price tag is more reasonable.) That being said, I would pay $1k for a 13" monitor made in Germany, Europe, Japan or USA.

Japanese products were known for being cheap and unreliable until international brands like Sony started to come up. China is also going through this process and brands like Huawei and Xiaomi are already trusted by many international consumers. Also an irony of you mentioning Germany is that many German companies have actually been bought up by Chinese capital in the recent years.

As long as the CCP is in power in China, I do not feel comfortable buying Chinese products. > Also an irony of you mentioning Germany is that many German companies have actually been bought up by Chinese capital in the recent years. That affects none of the companies I value, though.
