Of course they do, they don't charge you 400$/€ just for slapping their brands on the device
It is insane to me that phones >$400 are so normalized. I remember a friend saying they got their iphone very cheap at like $500 and i am like 😐, my xiaomi phone was $120ish and does more stuff than the $500 iphone.
yeah, i bought a xiaomi after my previous samsung's battery bloated to three times its size in like 2 years of use...
also the sound quality of that samsung was absolute shit. just completely broken tinpot sound right from the start. i got it brand new too.
anyway, this xiaomi is great so far. that is, it's only as shitty as android and a touchscreen make it, and no more.

The last Iphone can go up to 1479€ in France, where the minimum one month full time salary is something like 1300€ after taxes
