Maxamps are what you buy if you want the best and money is no object. For mere mortals, the Chinese ones are fine.
Um, no. Maxamps are what you buy when you have a lot of money and don't know any better.
I guess I'll choose to ignore the 'Um', indicating that you think you are talking to a fool.

Maxamps make/rebadge/whatever higher C batteries than any of the Chinese ones. I'd say regardless of the manufacturer, as long as they are capable of the claims, that makes them better. If I want a 100C battery I got no choice, I gotta go to one of the expensive brands.

Whether or not you need those crazy Cs, is another debate.
