Well they don't ignore that market. They decided to not sell there yet. Because going to a new large market far away from all your warehouses and with a potential large demand cause a lot of headaches. Not to mention all the regulations and rules they need to abide by.

Can't wait for companies to start, every year, slowly making their phones slightly bigger and make the components unnecessarily slightly bigger to ensure you can't just use an old phone with upgraded parts. Doesn't matter if the parts don't actually contribute to the overall function, just so long as you are trapped into buying a new phone.
