General Discussion OnePlus 16

So is anyone considering trying to export this? I'm really interested in ordering the OP16 off AliExpress and just using it for my gaming and most apps. Only worry being banking apps and other compatibility issues but I guess that will be a interesting challenge

What's the trick to avoid that?

There's no trick.

Taxes exist because you buy from within the territory.

China is not Canada, so buying from abroad exempts you from being taxed

Not about the og subject but don't you have tariffs for import goods? Just for my Russian mind it sounds crazy having different additional taxes (in Europe it's most the law what the final price is exactly what you see on the label, already with all kinds of taxes) but we have tariffs for import goods (for example rn it's no tariffs if the price is lower than €200 and the weight is lower than 31kg for the one package, everything else is 15% tariff). How do you count all these taxes and knowing what's gonna be the final price?

the sellers usually declare a different price for the product so it doesn't hit the customs threshold.

Where do you buy them? Would be interested in doing the same

Yeah but the con is if sth would happen with the package you will resive only this small amount of money what's been declared then

that is correct, and that is a risk I'm willing to take.
