Why oem and odm programs matters on the Gold S
ODM suits buyers with a fixed specification; OEM suits those starting from an existing platform.
Freight consolidation changes the answer to oem and odm programs at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.
Tooling, artwork and certification lead times should be planned at least a quarter ahead.
