What makes Samsung a better option over these chinese brands is their long software support. 4 years of OS updates plus security patches. There is no china branded phone that can match that. Usually, their mid range devices only get 2 os updates plus 3 yrs security patches. So, in the long run, since you are going to use the device longer, you are actually getting your money’s worth. Not to mention, Samsung’s customer service and service centers.
