why do cheap Chinese electronics work perfectly at first, but quickly get broken afterwards?
In: Engineering
A lot of what goes into making electronics expensive involves quality control, good soldering, components that don’t overheat and aren’t overly sensitive to ambient conditions. If you want save money and make a quick euro, using unskilled labor with little QC and the cheapest bits of kit you can find will work. Sure it might overheat and sure the capacitors might leak, but it will work long enough to make the sale.
In a word, they are cheap.
