They arent almost double in China Usually.

iPhone 5S costs about 30% more.

Samsung Galaxy costs about 25% more.

Your mistake is that different products are taxed in different %.

Brazil for example.

Mobile Phones: 39%
Videogames: 72%
PC Games: 33%

I'm only giving some examples because I don't know how it is the tax system in China but in Brazil videogames are taxed like alchool, cigars and guns... so you need to see how is the tax for videogames in China, not phones.
