BEIJING Cheap Patrick Robinson Jersey , Dec. 12 (Xinhuanet) -- Well over half the people in China now believe, domestically produced technology brands are as good as foreign ones, as well as offering better value for money, according to a report from the United Kingdom research firm Mintel Group.
Around 3,000 consumers aged 20 to 49 from 10 cities were questioned online with 58 percent saying the quality of home-grown brands was as good as international ones, and 61 percent saying they were satisfied with domestic technology.
"Chinese consumers believed domestic brands represented good value for money, but foreign brands, such as Apple and Samsung Cheap Benjamin Watson Jersey , are still viewed as being 'stylish' and 'innovative'," said Huang Can, senior research analyst at Mintel.
In recent years, a growing number of Chinese technology products have been launched featuring innovative solutions at more competitive prices than foreign rivals.
In the mobile phone market, for instance, the country's top six brands-Lenovo, Coolpad, Huawei Cheap Austin Carr Jersey , ZTE, Xiaomi and TCL-are all Chinese. The top five desktop and laptop computer brands are also Chinese (Lenovo, Acer, Asus, Hasee, and Haier), as are the top seven tablet computer brands (Lenovo, Teclast Cheap Eli Apple Jersey , Onda, Asus, Huawei, Cube, and Acer).
"Consumers make technology purchases based on factors such as good value for money and customer service, but brand attributes such as the perception that a brand is 'high end' are also able to influence purchasing decisions to a large degree," said Huang.
According to the report, 71 percent agreed with the statement "advertisements focusing on brand image gave me a good impression" Cheap Josh LeRibeus Jersey , and 75 percent of respondents agreed that the "brands that a person uses are a reflection of the lifestyle he or she seeks".
Last year, Mintel statistics show, there were 444.7 million units of individual technology product sales including mobile phones, tablets, and desktop and laptop computers. The average Chinese household spent 7.2 percent of overall income on technology products, much larger than in markets with a similar level of development.
The report said that number is forecast to hit 513.5 million units sales by the end of 2014, a 15.5 percent rise.
The leading technology brands will be aware of such a large percentage of total household expenditure being spent on their products, said Huang Cheap Vonn Bell Jersey , and the growth of Chinese over foreign brands in recent years means Chinese consumers are still looking for brands that offer value.
A male Xiaomi user called Liu Qin said that Chinese technology companies have developed very fast and are now producing a lot of good products, such as smartphones by Xiaomi and Huawei.
"Compared with other high-priced foreign brands, these domestic brands have proved good value," said Liu, who called himself a long-term Xiaomi smartphone user. "In addition to good functions, their products' design and appearance are also no less exciting than foreign brands."

MILAN, Feb. 26 (Xinhua) -- 2015 was an excellent one in the post-economic crisis era for Italy's eyewear sector, industry experts said here on Friday.
At the opening conference of MIDO Cheap Sheldon Rankins Jersey , the Milan eyewear show which runs from Saturday to Monday, it was announced that in 2015, Italian eyewear production totaled 3.6 billion euros (3.9 billion U.S. dollars), up by 12.5 percent over 2014.
In 2015, there were 870 companies in the country, 0.2 percent more compared to 2014. Exports of frames, sunglasses and lenses, which account for almost 90 percent of production by the sector Cheap Alex Anzalone Jersey , rose by 12.3 percent over 2014 to 3.4 billion euros.
The main export market for sunglasses and frames in 2015 remained Europe, with 49 percent share of exports, followed by United States with 30.5 percent and Asia which absorbed 18.2 percent, posting a growth of 14 percent, with China at 42 percent. In terms of suppliers, imports from Asia continued to take the lion's share at 73 percent, figures showed.
The Made in Italy was a driving factor for exports, MIDO president Cirillo Marcolin said. Sophisticated consumers are willing to spend more Cheap Marcus Williams Jersey , so that higher costs for companies are more than offset by the benefits of product image and quality, he noted.
In fact the comeback of Italian production, especially for the very high-end of the market, dubbed "reshoring" or "back to Italy," has been gathering pace even among the large eyewear companies, he pointed out.
"Clients want something that can reflect their personality. Eyeglasses in the course of years have evolved, they continue to have the main function to correct vision and protect from sunlight, but are also an important accessory Cheap Ryan Ramczyk Jersey , a key side of us that we immediately show to others when we meet them," Marcolin told Xinhua.
Marcolin added eyewear companies in Europe have been wrong when looking at China as a place where they could produce their goods more easily because of its low cost of labor. "They did not realize at the beginning that China could potentially be the largest market in the world," he said.
"But now European companies are paying increasing attention to this market, they have also produced collections that are particularly suitable for the Asian customers and represent a sort of Asian style. Many Italian companies are working on this trend and I believe there are a lot of opportunities only waiting to be seized," he added.
This year at its 46th edition, MIDO is among the eyewear industry's most important international events.
