Lei Jun on the Mi 3’s price drop to 1499 RMB (240.87 USD): Don’t like it? Don’t buy it!

Today, Xiaomi announced that they would hold promotional sales event for the summer. They will lower the Mi 3’s price to 1499 RMB (240.87 USD). As one of the most popular smart phone brands in China right now, anything done by Xiaomi will surely get the public’s attention. This sale sounds like a good idea but might not be popular with some people.

20140616_151056_466

 

Some suspect that the reason for the price drop is that Xiaomi is selling off the rest of what they have left. It had been selling so well when it was 1999 RMB (321.10 USD) that some even suspect that Xiaomi is secretly trying to sell previously used but restored phones which did not sit well with Lei Jun who posted a sharp response in his Weibo account.

 

He said, “Seriously? If you don’t like it, don’t buy it. Let those who want to buy it take advantage of this so that I won’t be accused of hunger marketing again.”

 

The reasons why Xiaomi lowered the price of the Mi 3 from 1699 RMB (273 USD) to 1499 RMB (240.78 USD)

6cc6e45d2f9cf66facfacd3554b52577_w_680_h_425

This week, everyone is at home watching the World Cup Series. Weibo is filled with World Cup tags. But Xiaomi has been unwilling to stay out of the limelight. They lowered the price of the Mi 3 from 1699 RMB (273 USD) by two 200 RMB (32.14 USD) in a promotional sale and there’s no need for anyone to rush into stores.

 

Why would Xiaomi avoid the attention given to the World Cup and choose this moment for their sale? Here is our analysis.

I.                   Behind Xiaomi’s price drop

 

Xiaomi usually releases a new device about every August, but the device they’re releasing this time is just the beginning. For some devices being developed, we can only wait for about a month before they can start small-scale tests, and wait until the end of the year for large-scale ones. The reason for the delay of the Mi 3 China Unicom version is because of Qualcomm’s supply of goods.

 

Around every April is Xiaomi’s golden week. There are no problems with supply and production at this time. Costs for hardware are relatively much lower than the rest of the year. Sales are high and so is the profit made.

 

It was usually at this time when the competition heated up. Back then, the Mi 1 was challenged by 360 warships. Timid and nervous, the Mi 1 did everything it could to fight.

Xiaomi also lowered the price of the Mi 2, releasing the Mi 2A and Mi 2S.

 

In June, just two months before they release their new devices, Xiaomi lowered the price of all their devices in stock. So, it should not be surprising that they lowered the price of the Mi 3 from 1699 RMB to 1499 RMB (240.78 USD) at this time.

II.                The competition behind Xiaomi’s promotional sale

 

It should be said that unlike before, the 1499 RMB price is the Mi 3’s price in Xiaomi’s official online store which has an unlimited number of them. Before, whether they cost 1799 RMB or 1299 RMB, people had to rush to buy them.

 

Not letting customers fight each other for Mi’s phones meant that competition was fierce and that they had a lot in stock. Xiaomi can no longer practice double pricing to make a bigger profit.

 

Actually, ever since the Mi 1, there has always been competition. First, there was the arrival of Zhong Hongyi. When Xiaomi released the Mi 2, they had to compete with Huawei’s Honor 2 and Lenovo’s K860.

 

Xiaomi’s true challenge came when they released the Mi 3. The Nubia z5s beat Xiaomi by installing the Qualcomm 800. More rivals have appeared non-stop. The seriousness of the problem is due to the fact that their rivals studied Xiaomi’s policies in double pricing and letting buyers compete with each other.

 

The ZTE Grand S II costs 1699 RMB (272.64 USD) while the Oneplus costs 1999 RMB (321.21 USD). The Xiaomi’s so-called advantage in price advantage is no longer obvious.

 

Actually, the Mi 1 was really powerful. It had great hardware and UI. Other than the way it looked and the camera, there was no competition.

 

By the time the Mi 3 came out, its rivals were already very powerful. For example, there was no way Xiaomi could compete with the Snapdragon 800 and Snapdragon 801, their 2 GB or 3 GB memory, 16 GB to 64 GB flash memory, 13mP IMX214, and 1080P display screens.

 

At the same time, Gionee, Vivo, and Oppo’s had customized cameras, HiFi, and HTC, which Xiaomi did not have.

 

As for software, the miui is still in progress but its rivals are already being developed at a faster rate. OPPO’s Color OS and its features are amazing. I won’t review ZTE’s Shenmei but ZTE has very careful with its performance. Vivo, Gionee, Huawei, and Coolpad all have perfect UIs.

When it comes appearance and workmanship, Xiaomi always believed that the best way to design is to have no design. Later, it will be changed to “the best designs are other people’s designs.” This is will happen when their weaknesses appear in their hardware and software.

III.             Xiaomi’s future

 

The number of phones created by Xiaomi has grown rapidly over the last several years. It has become a king in the smart phone industry. However, the smart phone industry is starting to come of age.

 

It’s the beginning of homogenization for smart phones. Other than its first two years, Xiaomi has not had great competitive strength.

 

Xiaomi will probably make cell phones at a slower rate. If they don’t release a winner into the market, then they will have to find another way to grow. They could try selling their products in the international market.

The OnePlus One is actually NOT Waterproof

oneplus-1.1

So now apparently the OnePlus One is waterproof? It was only a few weeks ago that rumours were being debunked that it had a Micro SD slot, and now this. Will we be back in a month to make sure you know it can’t fly or clean your car? Where this all came from is a video clip where a brave OnePlus One owner notices that a rain shower doesn’t cause his OnePlus One to combust and so decides to dunk it in water. For 12 seconds the OnePlus One is underwater and survives apparently none the worse for the experience. This would be taken as one man’s scientific interest gone too far, but a surprising amount of people are following in his footsteps and commenting on what good news it is that they can now take an excellent selfie while scuba diving and play Candy Crush in the bath.

So here is the truth of the matter: all phones are tested for water resistance, the OnePlus One is no different. It emerged from those tests with no water resistance label, therefore it is not recommended for use under water and in the quite likely event that you damage your phone in this way, it is not covered in the warranty. You have been warned people: arriving at your phone dealer with a waterlogged OnePlus One is only likely to bring you embarrassment and a pretty hefty repair bill. The phone promises many things, but the ability to swim is unfortunately not one of them. We’ll leave the last word on the matter to a OnePlus representative: “the OnePlus One is not endorsed as a water resistant product and water damage will not be covered by warranty”. So there we have it, step away from the fishtank and think on.

Lenovo-K920

Nowadays, leaders of the smartphone industry arise with assorted software particulars. Should you covet a high-resolution smartphone, the Lenovo K920, is undoubtedly worth-mentioning.

The K920 was perceived as an attention-getter, at the newly held Mobile Asia Expo in Shanghai; as every single gadget adjacent to the smartphone appeared powerless.

Lenovo-K920-Camera

The Lenovo K920 smartphone is furnished with a 6-inch QHD (1440 x 2560) wrapped in a premium-looking brushed metal body. Underneath the covering operates: a Snapdragon 801 processor combined with a 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM; plus a 4,000-mAh battery, supporting all the essence. Furthermore, it is equipped with a 16-megapixel rear-camera with optical image stabilization (OIS), and a dual-tone flash; and corresponding with a 5-megapixel front camera, for above-average selfies.

As of its 6-inch size, the Lenovo K920 may not be fascinating to every person; but then again, it positively outclasses everything else in its miniature métier. The K920 has not in fact been publicized hitherto; nonetheless, considering Lenovo is already presenting the smartphone at technology expositions, it must not take long for it to get through our coasts.

OnePlus One vs HTC One Max

oneplus_one_delay

HTC One Max and OnePlus One are two of the most featured android mobiles available in the market.After looking at the configuration of these two smartphones, it’s so thrilling to compare these warheads before we purchase any. Both of these were created as a phablet using LCD technology with the Max at 5.9 inches, 373 PPI and OnePlus One at 5.5inches, 401 PPI.
Both of these comes in two different models with different configurations.Each one having a 16GB version with the One bouncing to 64GB storage without any microSD slot and the Max having a 32GB version but it does have a microSD card slot for expansion upto 64GB
The camera technology is quite different with the HTC’s Max having 4MP UltraPixel layout and the OnePlus One uses 13MP for smooth operation. The batteries are similar with the One using a 3100mAh and the Max jumping to a 3300mAh.
Before we pick a winner among these two, we need to compare more features and find out which provides better and reliable performance.

Specifications

OnePlus One

The new OnePlus One is already attracting people’s attention before its arrival.the One is packing some high-end specs for less than what it would cost to buy Nexus 5 which means it is nothing less than a big gamble. The 5.5-inch FULL HD display is slightly smaller than the 5.9-inch on the Max, but it does make the device more manageable in your hand and certainly thinner and lighter. The Snapdragon 801 quad-core clocked at 2.5GHz simply blows the HTC One Max’s processor out of the water. That processor is coupled with 3GB of RAM which also beats out the 2GB of RAM in the Max. The One does not offer internal memory expansion beyond the 64GB model. The One has a more traditional 13MP main camera from Sony with a six-lens configuration and the 5MP front-facing camera uses a wide-angle lens to capture more area for video chats and excellent group selfies. The One operates the newest Android 4.4 KitKat operating system built-over by CyanogenMod, which claims a near pure Google experience with several enhancements. The pricing is where it really shines – $299 for the 16GB model and only $349 for the 64GB model, and these are off-contract prices.

HTC One Max

The HTC One Max is simply the original HTC One M7, only larger in every direction, including weight – with the addition of a fingerprint scanner on the back of the device, directly under the camera. The screen retains its Full HD 1080p display, but because of its 5.9-inch size, the pixels-per-inch (PPI) drops to 373 – which is still very good. The Max does offer a microSD slot for an additional 64GB of internal storage, if you so desire. HTC insists on using their 4MP UltraPixel technology on their main cameras, and while MP is not everything, the pictures are good, but not great. The battery is slightly larger at 3300mAh versus 3100mAh in the smaller One, but not enough of a difference to mean much in battery life. The Max is running the latest Android 4.4 KitKat upgrade with well-received Sense 5.5 overlay.

Considering the specifications, reliability and price, the winner is:

“ONEPLUS ONE”

Xiaomi Mi Pad aims to hit Apple’s maket share

MiPad-07

Back in March when MIUI was released for Nexus 7, it was much anticipated that Xiaomi (popular Chinese smartphone manufacturer) could enter into Tablet Market. The company has just unveiled power packed Mi Pad at attractive price range. Featuring two versions: 16GB for about 240$ and

270$ for 64GB. Both tablets have capacity to support up to 128GB extra storage capacity through microSD slot.

The device is just not an addition of Tablet to an Andriod market, but stands up with powerful features. It is infact first to feature the powerful Tegra K1 SoC (Nvidia’s quad-core processor supported by 2GB of RAM). Based on heavily customized Android OS 4.4.2 KitKat with interface tweaked to seem much like Apple’s iOS.

Xiaomi Mi Pad has a 7.9-inches display (LG or AUO) with high resolution of 2,048 x 1,536 for a 326 ppi density with a 4:3 aspect ratio and a 2GB of RAM. Its all packed under just an 8.5mm thick glossy finish plastic weighing a total of just 360g.

MiPad tablet include a 5 megapixel front facing camera best for video calling, along with a 8 megapixel rear facing camera.

The company CEO Lei Jun, has not specify the full launch of product as the ‘open testing will undergo in June. So one can expect Mi Pad to hit the market once the testing is over.The company has put as long as four year into Tablet Market entry planning, told CEO Lei Jun to the audience. With the launch of Mi Pad, Xiaomi hope to put pressure on Apple.

 

With powerful hardware and attractive OS tweaks Mi Pad will offer powerful gaming on cheap and unmatch-able user interface experience.

Theoretically Perfect: The Huawei Honor 3c 4G Version Experience better than the Huawei Honor 3C Version

7c8aa9ae1ab630196ed047f0ed2ee15c_mw_680_wm_0_wmp_3

Huawei has been fighting for two years in the mobile market and has gradually found the opportunities to honor its flagship brand campaign by providing users with electricity cost efficiency in the market. Hauwei’s Honor 3C launched in late 2013 at a low price. It relied on more of its sophisticated products to win, forcing competitors to reduce the official price of their products.

The Honor 3C version was ranked highly and was in the forefront of its sales, surpassing competitors and achieved very good sales.

With the popularity of the Honor 3C launch, will the 4G version of this product do as well as its predecessor? We experience the product first hand and analyze its thoroughly.

Appearance and Workmanship

2

The Honor 3C and the 4G version have the same basic shape. This smartphone has a rounded rectangle appearance, an all bonded glass screen, relatively narrow borders and a seamless front.

In comparison to the Honor version of 3C, the 4G version has had its back texture processing been quite improved with a leather texture. This smartphone has been improved quite a bit with changes to how the smartphone feels, increasing the sense of appearance grade (many use the hard plastic automotive interior lines to enhance the sense of quality) as well as the increased friction when holding the phone to prevent the phone from being dropped.

3

However, this texture is also easy to get dirty and smudged. Users will often find that the will need to constantly be wiping their phone to keep it cleaner looking, otherwise it will be difficult to see. This feature has both some great advantages and some horrible disadvantages.

4

On the back cover, the Honor 3C and the 4G version have not made any big changes. They both have a simple curved handle, but the addition of leather texture makes the phone feel good and is definitely worthy of some praise.

5

One of the differences between the Honor 3C version and the 4G card is the necessary change to the battery. For aesthetic appearance, it has been designed to not open the back cover with the slot, but through the USB port directly. This design choice is both beautiful and somewhat troubling for the user.

6

Overall, the Honor 3C and 4G versions look are different and a lot of work has been done over the previous generation. Although the appearance is nothing new, considering the higher price, the changes are satisfactory.

Hardware and Performance

Compared to the Honor 3C version, the biggest change between the Honor 3C and the 4G version is the decision to replace the processor from MTK 6582 to Huawei Hass Kirin910. Kirin910 integrated into the 4G baseband using ARM A9 cores. It speeds up to 1.6Ghz, which basically reaches the Samsung 4412 level. The GPU is also the leading factor and helps with the overall performance. The practical experience is very good.

Here we must emphasize that the experience of the mobile phones is to mainly see the single-core performance, the memory bandwidth and the GPU performance. The Kirin910 quad-core A9 is much better than the eight-core A7 MT6592. The memory bandwidth is also far beyond what is expected and the Kirin910 experience and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 are quite close.

We also measured the CPU performance, to see if it has a smoother and theoretical improvement. The Kirin910 performance was pretty good and above average.

Versus the Honor 3C version, the 4G version has a 5-inch screen and also has a 720P screen. This screen resolution is not very high. The PPI is less than 300, slightly less than the required retina screen. When looking up close you can see that the phone screen has a grainy look, but overall there are no normal distance problems.

In addition to the weaker PPI, the screen quality is actually quite good. Using the grayscale test, you can more clearly see the 256-level grayscale that this phone supports. This is something that even high-priced phones can not do typically. It helps to ensure the readability of the phone’s screen, even with the highest brightness from the sun. There is no obvious color cast, but the display quality is relatively good.

In contrast to the Honor 3C version, the 4G version pictures have improved. The 8,000,000 pixels is not a problem, but the Honor 3C and 4G both use a CMOS which is 1/4 inch. Because the sensitive area is quite small, the noise is quiet. The 4G version made more serious advancements to noise reduction which has had a significant impact on its quality results.

Software and Design

Huawei has creating its own Emotion UI. The initial UI was terrible, but after several years of being in development, the current 2.3 version has basically been perfected. This is a path that most mobile phone manufacturers do when creating their user interface.

There are basic similarities between the versions with various interactive experiences that are made up of animated transitions. The design is quite well done. The biggest gap between the versions is the difference in the art and the aesthetic levels.

14

In the standby interface, Huawei have made improvements. There has been a commitment to the attention of commonly used functions that have been integrated into the standby interface. They are very easy to use and is somewhat similar to other phones in the market.

In the main interface, Huawei have redesigned the top bar design with a transparent gradient and removed the ugly black box that used to appear.

15

In the telephone interface, the number keys have had shading added to them, but did not do any stereo and lighting design changes.

The Huawei folders interface is, by design, in a gallery format which has been changed to help incorporate the Emotion UI 2.3.

Huawei was also very attentive to the need for safe driving. This increased functionality with voice command operations makes sure that the user keeps their hands on the wheel and improves the quality of the user’s experience.

The settings menu can be customized now with the addition of shortcuts.

Overall, the Emotion UI 2.3 has done a great job with improvements for commonly used functionality. The design of the layout has been well thought out and is very flexible and fluid. In addition to aesthetic issues and everyone’s different tastes, the Emotion UI 2.3 has no severe problems. The UI has matured and is much easier to user.

Summary

Theoretically, versus the Honor 3C version, the 4G version is a more perfected version. All aspects of the configuration have been very well balanced, the Kirin910 has excellent performance, the workmanship is quite worth the increased price and the software is more mature.

The 4G version has a problem with its 1/4 inch CMOS and software optimization did not do a good job. Finally, the picture quality is not satisfactory. The ability of Huawei’s software does have good P7 picture quality some of the time.

In comparison to the Honor 3C version, the 4G version has appropriate elements kept in mind with the point UI improvements and the Huawei’s hardware has the ability to make excellent and good quality photographs. Perhaps Huawei will buy Ascend P7 and actually enter the electricity provider market. With this capabilities they would be able to enter the market without disturbing the different phones they provide.
