Seriously, the fit or finish of these products has nothing to do with being made in China. Those are design choices, just like it was a design choice for U.S. auto makers to build cars in the U.S. with terrible quality back in the 1980's.

My iPhone and new iMac both have what feels like tremendous quality, shipped straight from China.

Well, like I said in my original post, that's because some western brand owners keep a tighter rein on their Chinese operations.

If you want to protest stuff being made in China, I'd do so because they have crappy working conditions caused by a government that doesn't allow independent worker unions to exist, and our companies are taking advantage of that.
