Hi everyone!
I was looking into buying the xiaomi redmi note 8, but I was told that chinese phones may have privacy issues.
I was thinking about buying the alcatel 3x 2019 to avoid this problem, although I dont know it it is as good...
So what do you think about this?

RE: Is buying a chinese phone risky??? 14-03-2020, 02:19 AM #3 I personally wouldn't go for foreign tech especially right now
Dgmw there's some cool looking phones like the dual screen one's but I wouldn't say it's worth it at the current moment; I'd recommend one of the newer budget Samsungs like a note 10 lite or older iphone if you're into that. Meow, it's purr-sonal!

RE: Is buying a chinese phone risky??? 12-04-2020, 09:03 PM #10 I think so yes because there is a real danger the battery might be very bad. I had that with a Xaomi phone and only found out way later that it was actually extremely dangerous.. So don't risk it.
