Why would I as a non-American want to buy a US made iPhone over a China made iPhone?

And don't say quality, the Chinese will manufacture exactly what you pay them to manufacture. It's not their fault that 90% of their customers pay them to make cheap shit.

If anything I'd trust (for now) the quality more with the Chinese as they've been building iPhones for 10 years, have experience, have their quality control improved year by year etc. No newcomer won't be as good from day 1
