The phone supports dual SIM dual standby and comes with network connectivity features such as 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth etc. The one drawback of the device is the lack of the high speed 4G LTE connectivity. But given the price tag, you can’t really complain that the phone lacks 4G. Finally, there’s a 2000mAh battery on board to power all these specs.

As you can see, the Landvo L200 comes out as a good budget smartphone. It is powerful enough for your basic needs, yet super cheap to fit in your budget.

New leak claims OPPO Smartwatch will last for a day with 5 minutes of charging

OPPO isn’t new to wearables (there’s OPPO O-Band) but the company has not yet announced a smartwatch. Looks like that’s going to change soon as a new leak on Weibo (via leaksfly) says that the company is developing a smartwatch similar in looks with Moto 360.

The source reveals a new image online which he claims is the upcoming OPPO smartwatch. The device sports a round face, much like the Moto 360 except for the black bar at the bottom. This means that the watch will have a true circular display.

The watch is said to run on Google’s Android Wear platform. The biggest selling factor of the device according to the source will be the VOOC fast charging technology. It is said that the advanced fast charge tech will allow users to get up to a day of usage with just 5 minutes of charging. This will truly be a revolutionary feature as it will essentially mean if you have a power outlet nearby and 5 minutes, you will no longer have to worry about your watch running out of charge.

We still don’t know whether the watch will be able to last for more than a day if charged till up to 100% as the source reveals nothing about its total battery life.

It is also said that the watch will be lighter and thinner than traditional smartwatches in the market.

Anyways, as of now, these are the only things that we know about the upcoming OPPO smartwatch. Lets wait and see, if we get some more concrete information about the device.

This is not the first time we are hearing about the ZTE Nubia Z9 flagship. The device was earlier leaked in pictures and just two days back, the phone along with the Z9 Max was listed on a famous Chinese e-commerce website, JD.com along with its pricing.

The launch event will be held at Beijing Performing Arts Center on March 26, confirms the teaser. We expect both the devices to be officially announced at this special event.

It has been long rumored that the Z9 flagship will feature bezel less display. We also saw some pictures which claimed to be the Z9 with super slim bezels. So, the upcoming ZTE Nubia Z9 could indeed sport very slim bezels.

Recent rumors suggest that the phone will feature the latest Snapdragon 810 processor with 4GB RAM. The phone is also said to sport a very powerful camera. Naturally, with such high end specs, expect the price to be high.

Xaiomi to release 399 Yuan Redmi smartphone in March?

xiaomi redmi

Back in December we came across multiple reports which said that Xaiomi will announce an even cheaper Redmi device to compete in the ultra low cost segment. The device was said to be just 399 Yuan to attract first time smartphone users.

Now, a new report has come up online claiming that Xiaomi will announce this super cheap device by the end of this month. This is the first time we are hearing about the launch date of this upcoming Redmi device.

399 Yuan translates to just about $64 which is a very great price for a phone. Of course, end of the day, everything will depend upon the performance and specs of this super cheap device. But looking at the offerings from Xiaomi till date, we are pretty sure that it won’t be disappointing.

Xiaomi is yet to officially confirm the existence of a 399 Yuan Redmi device, but that doesn’t entirely rule out such a possibility. Still, its always better to take the news with a grain of salt. Sources also said that the company will also target high end markets  this year, which doesn’t come as a surprise as we already saw the powerful Xiaomi Mi Note and Note Pro smartphones announced back in January.

If Xiaomi is going to launch the new Redmi device this month, then expect a lot more information in the coming days. Stay tuned.

 

Samsung switching to Mediatek?

With the Release of Samsung Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge, Samsung breaks the long partnership with Qualcomm processor, This is going to make a loss of 48 million orders. Some say because of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 810 compared to Exynos 7420, this is a reasonable decision as Exynos 7420 is much more powerful than the Snapdragon 810. However, Foreign media broke the news that, Samsung is working with MTK (MediaTek) and negotiations are going on. It will be replacing Qualcomm, If Mediatek comes to Samsung, then it means that Samsung will likely become less high-end product company. This deal will defiantly be a good step by them as it will increase price to performance ration but then you will not get features like Fast Charging and Kernel Sources. If Samsung takes this step, then we can see high end phones at a much lesser price. Samsung has made a brand value and if they start selling phones at a much lesser price, they will defiantly have a good come-back.

Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge priced in China

On March 1st, Samsung announced its flagship smartphones, the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge with much fan fare at MWC 2015. The company had later announced that both the devices will be available globally. Now, it looks like, we have just spotted the pricing of the two handsets, which should be released in China soon.

galaxy s6 china price

The device was just listed on JingDong (JD.com). The Samsung Galaxy S6 was priced at 5288 Yuan while the S6 Edge was much more costlier being priced at 5888 Yuan. Both the models have 32GB internal storage and support dual 4G networks.

Both the models are powered by the super fast yet power efficient Exynos 7420 processor. The processor is built on a 14nm process which makes it more advanced than any other mobile SoC currently available in the market. Even Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon 810 processor is built using a 20nm process. Other features are also top of the line. Both the models feature a 5.1-inch display with QHD resolution, however the Galaxy S6 edge has a special dual edge curved display which makes it a very unique offering. This is main reason why the phone is priced so much higher than the regular Galaxy S6.

The retail price is slightly on the higher side as compared to other international markets, so it will be interesting to see how these two Samsung flagships compete with popular phones in China like the Apple iPhone 6 and 6 Plus.

Today, we came across the upcoming Huawei powerbank (AP007). From the appearance point of view, the leaked powerbank looks almost the same as the Xiaomi power bank. This particular mobile power comes with a 13,000mAh capacity battery which can input and output 5V 2A, which is quite the standard for Huawei products.

The new Huawei 13000mAh power bank comes with two USB ports, which has the same power output. Besides the two ports lies the MicroUSB, which is used for recharging the power bank. On the right lies four indicators which show the amount of charge left in the battery pack. Finally, at the extreme right, there’s the power button.

The best thing about this powerbank is its price tag. It is said that the device will be available for sale for a retail price of 168 Yuan which comes to $26.5. That’s an amazing price for a large 13,000mAh power bank.

Unfortunately, the source didn’t reveal the thickness or internal battery specs of the device, but if Huawei is indeed planning to launch a new powerbank, it could be around the same time as the company unveils it new flagship device, the Huawei P8.

Huawei or Meizu,who will snipe the rocketing Xiaomi Smartphone Trend in 2015?

It is an undoubted fact that China smartphone market expanded rapidly and dramatically in recent years. China smartphone brands like Xiaomi, Huawei and Lenovo competed in the international market with their superior cost performance, and also become more and more popular globally. According to Moore’s law, the fierce competition among the China smartphone brands will be much tougher as the time goes by, which resembles the PC competition a few years ago.

In January, 2015, Yu Chendong (CEO of Huawei) and Lei Jun(CEO of Xiaomi) expressed their prediction on the China smartphone market in 2015, they believe that the competition among China smartphone market will be the most fierce one in all ages. As the pioneers in the industry, Yu and Lei show their intention in making industry reshuffle in this year. The strong will be much stronger while the weak will die out, this kind of extreme situation will be the view picture for the following 3 year of China smartphone market.

The Rocketing Trend of Xiaomi

Xiaomi becomes the highest valued entrepreneurial style company in the world by its extremely peerless performance and word-of-mouth marketing strategy, it also takes more than half of the market share in China smartphone industry undoubtedly. Its pricing strategy is the key to make the whole business growing rapidly and defeat the traditional. As for traditional brands, they set a relatively high price at first, and the price will goes down as the time goes. Xiaomi is quite different from that, it sets the price which will make ends meet half a year later, as long as the sales could be controlled. Of course, this kind of Futures-Pricing pattern is the only part what will be denounced. If consumers want to buy Xiaomi, they have to either buy them from Secondary Market with a higher price, or rush to get the F code from the official website.

In the past year, the value of Xiaomi surges to 45 billion US dollars form 10 billion, the speed is quite astonishing. Lei made it through, and all he has done is captured by the media. From Functional Age to Smart Age, there are only three brands shining through, they are Apple, Samsung and Xiaomi.

The difference lies in that Apple use its iOS to attract a number of App developers to make money, while MIUI do it by providing integrated services.

As Xiaomi has the double advantages —— huge sales volume and favorable supply chain—— the two incomparable conditions endow Xiaomi potential to be the tycoon in China Smartphone market.

In 2014, the sales volume of Xiaomi is 61.12 million, increasing 227% than that of 2013, which did better than Huawei, Lenovo and LG in the Q3 of 2014, ranks the third on the global smart phone list, just following Apple and Samsung.

As the surging trend will slow down in 2015 for smartphone industry, if Xiaomi intend to maintain its performance in 2014, it will, on one hand grab the market share in low-and-middle-end market, on the other hand spare no effort to competing with international brands like Samsung, Sony, HTC and LG to get more market share in high-end market. The launch of Xiaomi Note will be the start to maintain the high-end market. It is likely that common version and flagship version will be launched into market at the same time with different prices to maintain the market shares in different levels.

Revolutionary price battle which is around the corner will make the industry reshuffle completely in 2015.

How wolf-spirit-style Huawei can snipe Xiaomi?

Frankly speaking, Huawei is the only competitor of Xiaomi in China smartphone market, no matter its brand fame and the sales volume. This year, the biggest revolution for Huawei is that HONOR (the former sub-brand) will be merged into it. And HONOR is the one Huawei builds up with the utmost attention to compete with Xiaomi, the one which is neglected in the past.

HONOR is a brand penetrated with the wolf spirit of Huawei, keep on to Xiaomi in every aspect like price and marketing etc. As HONOR process too slow to affect Xiaomi, Huawei decided to merge it, focus on it, and take it as the trump card to defeat Xiaomi.

In terms of hardware, Huawei has the ability to compete with Xiaomi. As it has a greater ability on Independent R&D, Huawei’s Hisilicon Chip has its advantage in low-and-middle-end market for its performance, however, the chip is also a disadvantage as it is mono-used by Huiwei, and less competitive than MTK chip in cost and performance in China smartphone market.

As for software, Huiwei lags behind Xiaomi much more. Xiaomi’s MIUI ecosphere is much more sustainable Huawei’s EMUI ecosphere. Last year, the user number of MIUI is beyond 100 million. Lei uses MIUI to make money by investment and shares while providing service, which is a new pattern that attracts more users to get involved.

How the old enemy Meizu make the counter attack to Xiaomi?

Meizu made a remarkable progress in 2014 in terms of its sales volume. Though its Flyme is as user-friendly as MIUI of Xiaomi, the user number is always not enough, and this situation will dramatically affect its market position.

Alibaba joined hands with Meizu, investing into Flyme system months ago. It will help Meizu build the content of the system, but for the user numbers, Meizu should rely on itself.

In Strategic plan, Meizu should develop more versions like MX4 to boost the user number of Flyme system, only in this way will it compete with Xiaomi in sales volume in 2015. However, the time is limited as the slowing-down trend of phone market appears.

Huawei has a great amount of sales volume but without a preferable system, while Meizu has a vital system but without enough user number. Maybe Huawei combines with Meizu can make a complete new Xiaomi.

Next generation Redmi model to have ultra-slim bezels

Lei Jun recently posted on Weibo some information about the next generation redmi model. According to him, the new Redmi model will feature the same display size as the current version but will have very slim bezels. This will make sure that the device is smaller than the current generation and even easier to operate.

QQ图片20150308135528

He further said that there are some users who would have liked a smaller sized Redmi device. However, if the device is too small, then it will affect the battery capacity on the phone. As a result, the company is trying to improve the screen to body ratio on the new model to avoid this problem.

So, a 4.7-inch display with ultra-narrow bezels which be a balanced phone. It will be small enough for you to operate with one hand, yet big enough for a decent battery and display. The price is expected to be the same as the current model,  i.e. 699 Yuan.

PIPO C2 Is Released – Crazy Cheap ($35) Smartwatch

It seems that more and more manufacturers, including those in China are focused on producing wearable devices. We saw many smartwatches and other wearables by major manufacturers. It seems that those ones, based in China are also stepping up into the game.

1-15030610355KG

The manufacturer, which is not widely known outside of China – PIPO has an incredibly cheap (199 Yuan or around $35) wearable device in its pipeline.

The functions of the PIPO C2 are said to include the unique design, ability to separate the body from the strap and some more features, which are yet to be disclosed.

1-150306103612262

If you take a closer look at the device, it may not differ from a regular watch so much as it spots some classic elements of design.

The smart watch has the volume, functional keys and the Micro USB charging port. Also, the device can be used to call directly to other people as it has an embedded mic. It is not that the smart watch has a SIM card slot, but it uses a Bluetooth connectivity to do that via your phone. Since you can remove the smart watch form the bracelet, you can use it as a mini phone to call other people. That seems to be quite an interesting idea.

What is more, the PIPO C2 has basic features that most of the smart watches have nowadays. That include pedometer, display the time and date. However, the device is not being run by Android OS, so you may not be able to install the apps you may be using every day. Still, we are pretty sure that the PIPO has some replacement apps to use.

1-150306103625c7

The most attractive point of the PIPO C2 smart watch is, of course, the price. For just $35 you can get a great looking device, which also has functions you would expect from the smart band and smart watch.

iPhone 6s will be powered by A9 processor, manufacturing starts in June

Apple released their flagship smartphones just last September and we would need to wait for about half a year to see what new the Cupertino based company has under cover. However, the rumour mill usually starts very early and we have something that tells a bit about the iPhone 6s.

Screenshot 2015-03-06 11.16.15Screenshot 2015-03-06 11.17.05Just recently, we have heard some news that the upcoming flagship device from Apple will be powered by A9 processor and running iOS 9 system. Also, it is said to be supporting “pressure touch” technology, which is not yet detailed. 

Also, we have some news about the alleged production. The IHS Technology China research director Wang Kevin expressed his thoughts by saying that iPhone 6S will start mass production in June this year. Moreover, Apple’s shipments will more than 230 million units.

It seems that the production start will be very early as Apple needs to manufacture a lot of units. Making 230 million devices can be a challenge to any manufacturer, so starting the production early to make sure everything is all right is logical.

ZTE Nubia Z9 listed on JD.com?

Two months back, we saw some pictures of the upcoming ZTE Nubia Z9 flagship smartphone. Now, the same phone was listed on JingDong.com for a brief period.

zte nubia z9
