Licensed goods are about 500 more expensive than parallel imports. Parallel imports U 1 have WIFI and WCDMA (China Unicom supports 3G).
Hong Kong banks are licensed in Hong Kong, but they are actually parallel imports in our mainland.
The shanzhai is a fake in appearance. The following is a detailed explanation:
Parallel mobile phones refer to foreign, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan products that have not entered the mainland market through normal customs channels. Their main purpose is to evade tariffs, or such products have been improperly modified and cannot enter the customs through normal channels. And the products are basically not guaranteed by domestic manufacturers.
As the name implies, Hong Kong banks refer to licensed goods sold to Hong Kong, which are sold to the mainland market by smuggling due to the price difference between the mainland and Hong Kong markets. Because there is no network card, Hong Kong banks can't get warranty protection in the mainland (Nokia can, but it needs invoices issued by regular stores in Hong Kong). Generally, Hong Kong banks have unique logos or labels of agents (except LG and Samsung), such as the logos of SmartCom on Sharp GX32 and the logos of mc.f, one2free and CSL on Nokia 76 10.
Authentic Hong Kong banks: Generally, regular agents such as "Hong Kong Telecom" supply goods to lower-level businesses. Such a Hong Kong bank is truly consistent with the three codes. The logo of the agent can be found on Nokia's website, so 100% can be guaranteed nationwide.
Houganghang: General dealers get goods directly from manufacturers through some channels, and there are no formal channels. Although they claim to have a joint guarantee invoice and a blue protection sign, if the customer service is strictly controlled, they will not enjoy the national joint guarantee, at most, the dealer warranty in Hong Kong. Because this kind of Hong Kong bank saves the cost of first-class agency, the "post-Hong Kong bank" is generally cheaper than the "authentic Hong Kong bank", and the shops selling Hong Kong banks on Taobao generally sell this kind of "post-Hong Kong bank mobile phone". However, "Houganghang" also has a certain chance to enjoy the joint guarantee, that is, your local customer service inspection is not strict.
Generally speaking, genuine Hong Kong licensed products are not much cheaper than mainland licensed products. What can really open the gap with the Bank of China in price is the "Houganghang" mobile phone. Therefore, you should carefully consider when choosing the Hong Kong version of the mobile phone, because the common post-Hong Kong version of the mobile phone does not enjoy the 100% warranty (no matter how boastful the merchant is).
[Edit this paragraph] The definition of port water turbine
[1] is divided into two types; One is that there is no customs declaration in Hong Kong, and it has not been added by agents such as Fengze, Broadway and Zhongyuan. Its product feature is to carry a global after-sales service card randomly, and the others are exactly the same as licensed products, which are unique to Hong Kong. Hong Kong people are commonly known as shallow water. The other is that there is no warranty card, or even "products" after some dealers reinstall foreign scrapped machines or parts. This kind is unique to the mainland! Of course, Hong Kong now also provides refurbished machines and second-hand mobile phones for mainlanders, commonly known as Sham Shui Po by Hong Kong people.
The port water machine added a fake invoice in the mainland and turned into a "port bank", commonly known as Hougang.
Authentic licensed goods (Line A): The so-called genuine goods have passed the normal entry inspection and the certification of the Ministry of Information Industry, and have the network access license and the national joint guarantee certificate, and are officially sold in the market;
B: Strictly speaking, this kind of mobile phone is also licensed, but because it was smuggled into the mainland, there is no network access card. However, due to the manufacturer's nationwide warranty, this kind of mobile phone can also be guaranteed.
"shanzhai products": the first level is its material level. Literally, "shanzhai" means: in shanzhai, escaping from government management, or, in layman's terms, piracy, cloning and imitation. , an industry developed by private IT forces. Its main characteristics are imitation, rapidity and popularity. The main form of expression is to start from a small workshop and quickly imitate well-known brands, involving different fields such as mobile phones and game consoles. Shanzhai products include Shanzhai mobile phones, Shanzhai digital cameras and Shanzhai MP3 players. Most of these products, such as shanzhai mobile phones, imitate the functions and appearances of first-line brands such as Nokia, Samsung and Sony Ericsson, and some even change their brand names to Nokir, Samsing and Suny -Ericcsun to obtain the similarity with the original. Because these mobile phones copy the regular products of mobile phone manufacturers, the research and development costs are saved, and their prices are only one-fifth or even lower than those of regular products. In addition, although its materials and trade unions are inferior, its functions are diverse and its appearance is trendy, which has won the favor of low-end consumers and the scale of the industry has been expanding. On the other hand, there is a "shanzhai net" under the slogan of "promoting domestic strong machines and exchanging shanzhai culture".
