“That being said, here comes price inflation.”

Is this truly a given?

It seems given the extremely low production costs in China, they could afford to take a hit on their profit margins and still come out ahead.

I believe that is always true to a point. However, 25% is a lot - and it’s already stripped to the bone thanks to huge competition. I expect that prices will go up and quality will go down to compensate.

I think a lot of Chinese companies already save a ton by eliminating post production QA. They try to get the process as reliable as possible and, hey, if it’s defective, you can return it.

25% is big.
