Why is all the best newest hardware in Europe and Japan? Do they think that US will take the trash?
Usually there is no market in the US they can compete in - the US market is pretty much sowed up by Apple and Samsung.
The Asian market has lots of very cheap knock off junk, but that’s what most people can afford there. Asus fits right in with the rest of the trash ... Apple is now squeezing them in China, so Asus may not be long for this world using volume pricing to drive their financial model. It is really very difficult to compete with a company $697.51Billion market cap.
