I’m pretty sure this case is because China makes more $5 phones.

I’m not sure the exact price points, but Chinese manufacturers have the super budget market because their country is one of the biggest markets for them, they have the labor that’s manufacturing them for everyone else, and they don’t have the extra hoops to jump through that international companies do.
