In the same way that many expensive luxury clothes brands are of exactly the same quality as – and sometimes worse than – brandless or own-brand clothes being sold for a quarter of the price.
It's also true that factories machinery, workers, specs supplied etc. can change, so the quality of brands' products aren't necessarily fixed.
