    Trade war makes sense but your first point is utter fucking nonsense and if you had a braincell you would read the article before commenting like a twat. You’re exactly the kind of person who screams fake news before doing any research like those conservative vaccine repelling morons.

    Considering it looks like you need clickbait headlines to operate on a day to day basis, here you go - article CLEARLY states and in house glasses are SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than Gorilla Glass for some manufacturers.

      Lmfao bro,

      article CLEARLY states and in house glasses are SIGNIFICANTLY more expensive than Gorilla Glass for some manufacturers.

      no man, it does not. It quotes a single Chinese manufacturer’s spokesperson who said that off hand about a single type of screen. It has no information on whether or not that’s actually true for Honor, it has no information about whether or not that would be true if they produced their screens at the same scale as Corning or whether they expect production to get cheaper, and it doesn’t mention anything about literally any of the other brands or any of the the other in-house screen technologies in use.

        So it does quote someone who’s quote you are going to ignore because you don’t like it. Genius, absolutely genius.

        it has no information about whether or not that would be true if they produced their screens at the same scale as Corning or whether they expect production to get cheaper

        Yes because the author is obligated to report this when writing the article by going undercover as a Chinese defector, working up from the factories, becoming CEO of China and then finally putting this information out to public. Who would have thought becoming an Android news reporter requires such sacrifice. No wonder no one wants to work in this field.

        it doesn’t mention anything about literally any of the other brands or any of the the other in-house screen technologies in use.

        It has information on THREE brands with three different technologies attempting to make a change, with information about multiple variables about why they think they can replace Corning. I didn’t realise the author had to create a new Wikipedia before putting this out. Maybe he should’ve started a GoFundMe?
