True with the first part, I dropped "in China" because that's not a helpful qualifier. I was thinking of how the FreedomPhone was using Umidigi hardware, but that never made it into my post.

Besides, Pine itself (which is pretty good) is based in Hong Kong and manufactures phones in China.

I had no idea about Fair... That's pretty funny. They say they pay their workers extra, but not directly where the workers are. I read about their "European design" first
