Even then, Xaiomi surely couldn't compete with Samsung on pricing or advertising, given Samsung's huge advantage as a component manufacturer.
- mcintyre1994 12y agoSamsung choose margins over industry-changingly competitive pricing though. They price like an iPhone, not a Nexus or from the article a Xiaomi.
- rsynnott 12y agoAnd at that, they don't have massively high margins. Their marketing spend is absolutely huge, and would impede them from competing directly on price.
- chrisdevereux 12y agoGood point, hadn't thought of that.
- chrisdevereux 12y agoWhich makes sense for them, given that they can get away with it. They'd be well-placed to win a price war if one started, although it would probably hurt.
- vidarh 12y agoThey are already competing with Samsung on pricing.
