Jan 28, 2021

Earlier today (28th January 2021), AutoX officially launched its driverless taxi service, RoboTaxi, in China. The service is currently in its pilot program and is available to the public in Shenzhen.

Back in December 2020, AutoX had launched the service in the region for its final phase of testing. Now, the company is now fully open to the general public that can now book a completely autonomous RoboTaxi. The self driving taxis are capable of running on regular public roads in the city and can even take “unprotected left turns at busy intersections, makes side passes on streets, deals with a scooter running traffic lights, and more.”

At the moment, people interested in the pilot program can sign up through the AutoX RoboTaxi registration page. Once selected, the pilot users can use the AutoX membership credits as well for the RoboTaxi rides. Those riding in the RoboTaxi are also able to speak to a customer support agent to ask any question that they wish to enquire about. These customer care agents will also be able to check the status of the vehicle in real time to provide any necessary assistance.

For those unaware, AutoX has been conducting various trials and tests regarding its driverless taxi service in China since mid 2020. At the moment, the company advanced operations center that is built in Shanghai and other major cities. These sites are equipped with “ultra reliable Internet connectivity from multiple suppliers, fortified with fiber-optics, and supported by a back-up power system.”

Through this system, the company guarantees seemless passenger support and communications. Currently, AutoX is operating over 100 RoboTaxis in the cities of Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Wuhan. This has enabled it to accumulate vast miles of road data in the Asian cities, especially ones with a high population density that suffer from challenging urban traffic conditions as well.

Jan 28, 2021

The Apple AirPods have dominated the truly wireless Bluetooth headset market last year. As per a new report, the company’s hearables were one the most popular tech accessory in 2020.

According to a StrategyAnalytics report (Via PhoneArena), the Cupertino based giant’s TWS earbuds saw sales might have further room to grow in the category. Ville-Petteri Ukonaho, Strategy Analytics’ Associate Director added that only one in ten people own a Bluetooth headset. however, as major OEMs are moving away from wired earphones, with Apple and Samsung no longer offering them in the packaging box, the wireless headset market has “huge potential” at the moment.

In other words, we might see another boom for Bluetooth TWS earbuds soon. Ken Hyers, Director at Strategy Analytics stated that “TWS headsets drove global sales volumes in the Bluetooth headset segment. While the pandemic slowed demand briefly during the first half of the year, sales rebounded strongly during the second half. The Work From Home shift benefited the entire Bluetooth headset category in terms of sales volume growth.”

However, while Apple has seen a great performance so far in the category, its market share is expected to lower due to intense competition from rival brands like Samsung, Huawei, and Xiaomi. Hyers further added that “Apple maintained a commanding lead in the TWS segment in 2020, but its commanding share is shrinking as competition intensifies. Strong competition is expected from Xiaomi, Samsung, and Huawei in 2021. The TWS headset market is already hugely overcrowded and despite a strong sales outlook, there will inevitably be consolidation in the years ahead.”

Jan 28, 2021

Just recently, the iQOO 7 was launched and featured 120W fast charging capabilities, which is quite notable considering flagship handsets only supported 30W fast charging till about two or three years ago. Now, a new report suggests that Xiaomi might soon be launching a 200W fast charging flagship smartphone.

According to a Weibo post, a Chinese microblogging website, from known tipster @数码闲聊站, a 200W flagship device will be launching soon. While the leakster didn’t mention which brand will launch the new device, it is in line with a report we had covered previously. As stated above, just a couple of years prior devices only offered fast charging rate of around 30W and now we have devices that offer even faster wireless charging rates.

Notably, the Weibo post added that the 200W fast charging capabilities included wired, wireless, and even reverse charging altogether. The Chinese tech giant’s Mi 10 Extreme Commemorative Edition offered up to 120W wired charging along with 55W wireless charging and up to 10W reverse charging rates. This adds up to around 185W in total. So, we can expect the company to soon launch a device with a 200W+ charging rates soon.

Our previous reports had covered information of Xiaomi seeking to launch a smartphone with 200W+ charging rates. Unfortunately, this is all the information we have to go on at the moment. Thus, we do not know for sure when this device will actually launch or be announced, but it might be a part of the newly launched Mi 11 series considering it is reportedly a flagship grade handset. So stay tuned as we will be providing more updates when additional information is available.

Jan 28, 2021

During a recent briefing, Taiwan-based chipset maker MediaTek’s chairman Cai Lixing announced that the company is planning to invest around $3 billion in Research & Development in various fields.

The amount of spend on Research & Development (R&D) allotted for the year 2021 sets a new record for the company. Last year, i.e. in 2020, the company spent about $2.7 billion in research and development related activities.

This new announcement from the company comes on the hills of record revenue figures. MediaTek’s revenue for the previous year exceeded the $10 billion mark as the company reported $10.9 billion. It also noted that the company achieved double-digit growth for each of its product lines.

Further, Cai Lixing also predicts that the 5G smartphone shipments will exceed 500 million units this year, which comes out to be around 2.5 times more than the numbers in 2020. He also adds that among those, around 60 percent will be from the Mainland China region.

Last year, the company’s 5G market share was 40 percent and it is trying everything it can to continue its growth. At a time when the smartphone market witnessed a decline, MediaTek managed to increase its market share.

It became the leading chipset company in China with a 31.7 percent market share. It was followed by Huawei HiSilicon, accounting for a 27.2 percent market while Qualcomm managed to cover a 25.4 percent market share.

While MediaTek’s market share nearly doubled, Huawei HiSilicon and Qualcomm both saw a decline in their market share. The reason behind MediaTek’s growth is said to be the increased demand for budget smartphones.

Apple becomes the world’s leading smartphone brand, Huawei rapidly loses ground

Jan 28, 2021

Apple has become the world’s leading smartphone brand after it achieved record shipments of its iPhones. The company saw a notable jump in shipments in the fourth and final quarter of last year, while Huawei sees a major decline.

According to a Counterpoint Research report, the Cupertino based giant witnessed a sizeable jump of 22 percent in terms of shipments during this quarter. The company’s great sales are most likely carried by its newly launched iPhone 12 series, which is its first 5G enabled lineup. Furthermore, the boost in sales was also helped by pent up market demand, especially for people looking to upgrade from their older Apple iPhone models.

During Q4 2020, Apple iPhone shipments crossed 90 million units, which is a record compared to any other quarter. This also gave the company a global market share of 23.4 percent. Canalys analyst Nicole Peng added that “In China, Apple seized the perfect opportunity to capture Huawei’s market share in the high end, when the latter has essentially not enough supply even though demand for the brand is still there.” As per Apple CEO Tim Cook in an interview with Reuters, “We had two of the top three selling smartphones in urban China.”

The fourth quarter is usually the strongest for the company owing to its launch of new iPhones during the second half of a year. Apple overtook Samsung, despite the South Korean brand also seeing a 6.2 percent rise year on year, reaching 73.9 million units and achieving a market share of 19.1 percent. Meanwhile, Huawei saw a drastic impact on its shipments due to US sanctions, which had its shipments plummet by a record 42.4 percent to 32.3 million units.

Many smartphone companies were working on foldable smartphones for the past few years but only a couple of them managed to launch their devices commercially, which includes Samsung and Huawei.

With Huawei practically out of the premium smartphone space for the time being because of the trade restrictions, Samsung is at an advantage. Now, the company is planning to offer its foldable display panels to other companies.

Reports indicate that the South Korean giant is planning to provide one million foldable display panels which include both designs — horizontal fold and vertical fold. While the number may not seem much, it is a good place to start with.

The report further adds that multiple China-based smartphone makers have been in talks with Samsung Display to source foldable screen panels. With Samsung reportedly agreeing to it, we could see several new foldable smartphones in the second half of this year, likely from brands like OPPO and Xiaomi.

Samsung already has a few foldable smartphones in the market and is now reportedly working on a third-generation model. By supplying its panels to others, it will be able to put more players in this space, hoping to push adaptation of foldable phones.

Apart from the companies like Xiaomi and OPPO, Apple is also expected to launch a foldable iPhone in the coming years. While several details of the foldable iPhone have leaked online, we are yet to see anything official from the company.

The 64-megapixel sensor is an Omnivision OV64A sensor with a 1/1.34-inch outsole, a single pixel size of 1um, support for four-in-one pixels up to 2um. The sensor also supports three exposures, four-in-one HDR, on-chip combination, and the tone mapping function can provide stable and high-quality image output.
