Yeah I have started buying Chinese phones, started with a OnePlus One and I have just ordered a Xiaomi Redmi Note and most people consider them to be inferior because they are Chinese, oblivious the fact that their Apple device and many Androids are manufactured in China too.

Also never had an issue with the Oneplus, it has taken a battering and I have successfully changed the screen 3 times, survived a full submersion while turned on and numerous drops. It is currently missing the on\off button due to my carelessness but it is still going strong.
