Powering in the Super Middle-market, MediaTek Inc. Releases New Brand
MediaTek Inc. held a new brand conference in Beijing in the afternoon on April 23th. Leaders like CEO Xie Qing jiang, Radio & Satcoms CEO Zhu Shangzu etc. were in conference. The theme of this conference is to create infinite possibility/Everyday Genius, and to be the core meaning of new products at the same time. MediaTek Inc. would secure the middle and low end market and enter the Super Mid Market at the same time, covering more users.
The theme is “super terminal market” in this conference. This new concept is different from the traditional midmarket. Super Mid Market user’s group is mainly middle class with stable income in large numbers.
These people have a higher demand for products. Not only is it good to use. To put it bluntly, Super Mid Market is synonymous with higher end powering from MediaTek Inc. that meets the needs of more customers with better products, covering more users, no longer cling to mid-range.
The products are not the point in this new brand conference, but the 4 G / 64– bit new products has also been mentioned. Octa Core 4 G chips of MediaTek Inc will be listed in the third quarter of this year, 64 -bit product MT6732 / MT6752 will come out in the second half of the year. The solution scheme to the tablet, wearable smart devices, and smart TV will be introduced later.
A phrase that summarizes the conference, would be – MediaTek is changing! In addition to cutting into Super Mid Market, it is inevitable to face Qualcomma in the high-end market. More and more big brands joining can also help with MediaTek brand image promotion. The latest news said that GOOGLE’s new Nexus will use MTK’s 64 – bit solution.
Initial thoughts on the Oppo Find7 Lite — Oppo Find7 Lite
1：The white and grey covers feel different. The white one has a solid touch with good friction, but is not dirt resistant. The grey is too slippery.
2：It will fully charge, I don’t know why it takes so long. Usually it stops at 93% or 91%, and needs to be unplugged and plugged back in to continue.
3：In general, it needs to charge twice daily since I like to watch the news. Compared to my previous 9300, luckily it charges really fast.
4：The screen cover is a joke, it does not stick well at all and there were small bubbles.
5：Everyone knows the problem with leather cases for cell phones, we do not need to mention it.
6：The earpiece audio is better than the current 9300 and iPhone. However it is disappointing that the slide volume controls and the actual button volume controls are not unified.
7：The camera function was pleasantly surprising. It was more than enough for a cell phone. The night scene slow shutter has not yet been tested. Because of the sleek body design, if you want to use the voice picture function, it is recommended to use a stand.
8：The operating system is satisfactory, still using 1.2 and not any messy pre-installed software, it is relatively functional. The Mobile Wallet has not been studied. During the test, the camera appeared to reload endlessly, like the 9300 before, the machine RAM forces the reload, and it is not fixed by restarting. This problem also appears in the OPPO 2GRAM. I found that too many of the pre-installed software did not release RAM, and have not tried the 2.0 to see if it improved. The internal memory card only recognizes FAT32.
To summarize:
A pretty good cell phone, functionally satisfactory, but one handed operation is impossible. A lot of programs do not slide to close, it is a pain to have to press to close them. It has a little trouble with the 4G signal, but that does not affect use.

The A-one X disassembled
At 1188 RMB ($189.97) The A-one X has become the price king of quad-core big-screen devices, and I want to share with everyone photos of its craftsmanship.
Here’s they are:
The A-one X is designed with a detachable back cover. After taking off the back cover and removing some screws, you can see what’s inside the back. There are more marks and insulating tape on the PCB. I asked an employee of the company who said that the PCB on the actual phones that will be sold should not have these.
Here we can see that the PCB is covered with a metallic shield cover, which is not that common. It can effectively protect the chip inside and insulate electricity, letting the phone run stably.
This little thing is the front camera. The rear camera cannot be taken off because it doesn’t have a professional tool.
Lift the motherboard’s shield cover and you can see the MTK6592 CPU chip. Because this is the first time the phone is being dismantled, the shield cover cannot be detached.
This is one pretty sturdy phone.
Finally, here are all the computer chips. You can see the Samsung memory card although we can’t really tell what the other chips are.
Please don’t forget to check out the shield cover which I could not take out without a tool. It’s well made and since I didn’t have any tools, I could not take out the display screen.
Summary: The biggest feeling one gets after easily taking the X Warlord apart is knowing how sturdy the phone is, and how well-built it is. The hardest part was opening the back cover. A strong kind of glue is used to keep the phone intact and sealed tight.
Huawei: Our goal is to sell 80 million phones in one year
Huawei told us their objective for this year— to sell up to 80 million smart phones in 2014, 58% more than last year. This won’t be easy and we wish them luck. According to reports, Huawei spends $300 million (1.87 billion RMB) on manufacturing and promotion materials, 40% of which is used on the Chinese market. 
If they want to reach their goal, other than having to do a successful promotional campaign, Huawei should be seriously make good phones and see how the market responds. The company said that the Honor 3C, which was released last year, was a success and that, to date, they have already sold 8 million phones and expect to sell 20 million more in the future.
The Honor 3C is Huawei’s mid-to-low range smart phone and is being sold for 799 RMB (about $128) to compete with its other competitors in China. Based on Huawei’s long-built brand and loyalty of their consumers, the Honor 3C quickly broke into the mid-to-low range market.
Next month in France, Huawei plans to release its next flagship phone, the Ascend P7. Quickly 80 million phones should not be difficult. It has a 5 inch 1080p display screen, a 1.8GHz Highsilicon 910T quadcore processing chip, along with 2GB RAM and 16GB internal storage space, supports memory card expansion among other features. It will be sold for 2688 RMB ($429.83).

Picture proving Oneplus is wholly-owned sub-brand of OPPO
What’s the relationship between Oneplus and OPPO?
This issue has been talked for many times since OPPO’s ex vice-general manager left the company and set up Oneplus, and especially when Oneplus released in Beijing. And Pete Lau re-denied the statement of “One plus is wholly-owned sub-brand of OPPO“. In the media communication meeting, some journalists asked him “why is Oneplus looks so similar to OPPO Find 7?” Pete Lau just coped with “perhaps its because our aesthetics standard trends to be similar”, and said “all phone nowadays looks like iPhone”.
Exclusive above-the-line sale of the ZTE T+C double-SIM U960E
Early last year, ZTE released a very special product, the ZTE U960E, the first smart phone to support TD-SCDMA and CDMA. This device was initially sold in below-the-line retail stores, but recently appeared in ZTE’s official online store (myzte.com).
The U960E is a customized mobile phone and the TD-SCDMA is the most significant part of it. It is also compatible with CDMA1x and China Mobile 2G/Unicom 2G internet, and supports triple-mode multiband. Its use of a TD+CDMA/GSM double-SIM card makes the U960E a “unique kind” of customized mobile phone.
Another feature of this phone is that it uses the MediaTek MTK6517 dual-core processor (1.2G main frequency), which has not yet been integrated into the CDMA baseband. So, it still runs the VIA telecom baseband processor. The ZTE U960E is also the first T+C phone in the MTK platform.
The phone’s design is pretty similar to the N983’s, measuring 133x66x9.9mm. It has a blue case made of smooth fiber. It also has a 4.5 inch 720p resolution IPS screen, 1G RAM + 16G ROM, 1Mp front and 8Mp back cameras, 2070mA battery, and supports sensory features like an electric compass as well as memory card expansion. Its operating system is the Android 4.0.
ZTE’s phones that use the MTK chip are not bad, and each phone has their own remarkable features, so the U960E should not be cheaper than the Red Bull mobile phone and others. It’s quoted price in myzte.com is 1099 RMB ($175.74).
The high-end OONE mobile phone is coming soon!
It has been nearly five months since the brand, OONE, made its debut in Chinese New Year. Nothing has been heard from them until now, when it announced on its official Weibo account that the OONE mobile phone is coming soon.
The company posted its first poster of the phone starting its advertising campaign. The company boasts that the OONE mobile phone is not just a cell phone but a “work of art!” It will have “high-end functions” and be made using “high-end materials” and an “exquisite design.” They sound really sure of themselves!
The photo faintly shows the OONE phone in one angle, and one can barely see three buttons on side, which should be the volume buttons and power switch. It has a flat middle frame with curvy sides. In addition, HDR was used for the mid-frame, probably meaning that that it could be made of strong non-plastic materials such as metal.
Earlier reports said that the OONE phone would be very slim and that it might run on a MT6595 octa-core chip with 2GHz main frequency as well as 2GB of ram. However, it’s almost been half a year, so nobody knows if this will still be the case. Nevertheless, this “work of art” is certainly worth waiting for.
