> South Korean TVs are cheap, too

more expensive than chinese

as for salaries - yes indeed they are up. not every chinese laborer is a slave obviously, but many are - not usually for electronics directly though, more often for the inputs of such (energy and what not).

i'm surprised there's contention about this - it's all over the news.

discuss

One example is the Samsung frame vs Hisense canvas. $1500 vs $1000 msrp. You can see similar price differences across all Samsung vs tcl and Hisense.
