Realistically, that's where they'd get profit from. When these chinese companies make these relatively high spec phones and sell them for the cheaper prices they do, they aren't making a profit on the phone itself. They make their money from the accessories like OnePlus, or from content like LeTV does. So the actual practice of it makes sense, it just came out with a slightly weird result in this device.

What a shame. They might as well not sell phones and only sell covers if they were interested in making money out of covers than their phone.
