What happened to Qmobile?

[namsu99]

They just disappeared. No ads, no billboards, no marketing. Just gone...

yes, same question... i think its not profitable for them to run business due to other entrants in market and rising dollar rates..

They just returned and released two new smartphones.. but you shouldn't really buy them when infinix, tecno, redmi exists.

This question haunts me as well.

They were like the best selling Android phones from 2010 till 2015. I myself bought one so did many of my family members! A decision we later regretted as they had no software updates and their hardware was of questionable quality. But still they were making big bucks as the general population never bothered about these things.

But I guess when Xiaomi, Oppo, Huawei, Lenovo, Vivo, OnePlus, Honor, Realme, Infinix, Redmi, Tecno happened and flooded the market with their products they hardly stood a chance. Or could be some other reason, i dunno!!

They became #1 mobile brand of Pakistan & were given green Chanel at Port. To keep their prices low they started doing shady techniques to make more profits (IMEI Duplication) & save import taxes by declaring themselves as manufacturer while in reality they were just importer of ready made chinese phones after Qshit branding. Moreover they declared mobiles as LED lights . Because of green Chanel they weren't cough in beginning, but later Pakistan customs raided their shipment & seized it. All the IMEI verification shit started happening after this fiasco.

Nobody should buy these. Absolute garbage hardware with even worse software. Even if your budget is very low there are much better brands available
