Chk out my technical blog :
Maxxramblings: India has this dubious distinction of being the country of the cheapest "X". X being the name of a product. Till a few days back we were the land of the cheapest car and the cheapest tablet. Now to add another jewel to this crown we are also the land of the cheapest smartphone.
I simply can't fathom the rationale of these companies. Instead of making the most fuel efficient car or secure car,we go for the cheapest. Instead of the most feature rich or thinnest tablet, again we go for the cheapest. After a gala opening both the Nano and the Akash are veritable "has been"s in their respective fields.
So it is quite evident that people don't just care bout the price they would definitely not mind paying a few.bucks more in case they get a better product. The new entrant to the "cheapest x" genre, the Freedom 251phone have already created a serious of mis-events adding a few creases to the forehead of the doubters. Awaiting for a brand which will shine bcoz of the merit of the product and not because its super cheap.
