Huawei is planning to make a big event on May 15th, this Chinese manufacturer is now has many competitor since a lot of Chinese smartphone manufacturer is also ready to going global.
Hon Hai Precision Industry Co., Ltd., widely known as the Foxconn Electronics, a Taiwanese multinational electronic manufacturer announced the plan to join up with Hewlett-Packard (HP), an American multinational information technology corporation in producing cloud computing servers as well as providing supporting related services.
While according to HP CEO Meg Whitman, this cooperation would combine the innovation of HP’s server business model, being the leading brand in cloud computing products, along with the related services provided and Foxconn’s expertise on R&D and manufacturing, which would definitely change today’s market game-playing rules.
The rapid growth of the development of cloud computing has completely changed the existing global supply chain model, specifically for server products, as stated by Foxconn president Terry Guo. Due to suppliers’ urgent needs in being able to comply to clients’ demands of providing total solutions which include design capability, global production ability and shipment as well complete after-sale services, this joint venture agreement is scheduled to become effective as of May 1.
1：Affordable, this is the most direct advantage. The sale price of 799 simply beats everything else.
2：Good function. In today’s world of machines, less than 1000 yuan is a low-end machine. But after you have the Hongmi Note in your hand you will not feel it is cheap,it has great functionality and style.
3：The entire screen fit. This is the main factor that changes the cheap feeling of the Hongmi, and raises the overall quality.
4：Eight-core CPU. Even though it is a numbers games, the performance keeps up with the 2S. And those who don’t know better will think it is more powerful than the Mi3.
5：MIUI system. I believe this is main reason many people have always supported Xiaomi. Because all the large manufacturers attack Xiaomi in price wars, and there are many choices for similar priced configurations. But the MIUI system is still a major factor in choosing Xiaomi, I don’t think anyone would argue that.
The bad:
1：The screen does not follow the hand, low touch resolution. To put it simply the touch reaction is slow. For example, Fruit Ninja. After you swipe with your finger, the knife slowly appears. You won’t notice it in daily use or non intense operating games. But in games when high reaction speed is needed, like Fruit Ninja, it is particularly uncomfortable, and just fails this test. And I don’t know if it is an optimization problem or what, but sometimes the touch will be interrupted; if I swipe in a straight line, in the middle there will be a small area with no reaction. This is the same problem as the Mi1 from the same year, I would guess it is a result of cost.
2：1G of internal memory is not enough, Android is not IOS, it is not perfectly optimized, the standard 1G RAM has more than 500M at startup, and 300 after stabilizing, which is completely not enough. Of course for everyday use it doesn’t matter, but isn’t that a waste of such capability? It is a problem of cost, the actual memory really is not so expensive, it is mainly about Xiaomi marketing strategy. They know that 1G is not enough, so if there is an enhanced version on the way, why release the 1G? Because right now they need the NOTE to maintain a high profile. Before the 3S comes out and has a price reduction, the 2S is still necessary. If an enhanced NOTE came out and the configuration stays the same, but the price goes down, then the 2S would be unnecessary. So we wait for the 3S, for the 2S to be delisted or have another price reduction, and after the 3S replaces the 2S, the enhanced version will be released.
Preceding its outstanding marketing strategy, the “Hunger Marketing”, which back in March, resulted to a 100,000 units sales of the Redmi Note Android OS-based smartphones within only 34 minutes, Xiaomi, a privately owned Chinese electronics company based in Beijing, proudly announced that as of today, 15 million people have already pre-ordered this $161 phabet.
This number surely surpassed both Apple’s iPhone 5s and 5c accumulated opening weekend’s total sales of 9 million, and also the Samsung Galaxy S5’s. Using a totally different sales maneuver, Xiaomi is defining its pre-order numbers not only based on how many people have paid for the Redmi Notes but additionally also based on people signing up to receive more information about the phone via email.
The $161 (CNY999) Redmi Note is powered by a 1.7GHz octa-core chipset combined with 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage, a 13MP camera and a 3200mAh battery. Utilizing a 5.5” 720 x 1280 touch screen display and running on Android OS version 4.2.2, the Redmi Note comes in a quite affordable price for a smartphone that comes with such packed of features.
Even so, the number of 15 million people registered would again affirm Xiaomi’s smart business strategy as well as its smartphone market strength, particularly in China. By the end of this year, Xiaomi will start selling its flagship, Xiaomi Mi3, in the neighboring Asian countries such as Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, India and Turkey as well as in other regions, in countries such as Brazil, Mexico and Russia, while it continues to expand its market presence.
According to Taiwan media news, Xiaomi 4 will be released in the fourth quarter this year. As a next-generation flagship phone, Xiaomi 4 will not only use the most powerful hardware, and it will be equipped with sapphire crystal glass. Meanwhile, the media pointed out that not only is Apple and Xiaomi, many other companies are also planning to use sapphire crystal glass, lest they lose at the starting line.
In general, sapphire crystal glass applies only in the high-end devices, because its transmission capacity is good, and the wear resistance is stronger, but the problem is the high cost. Even though the cost is higher, but consumers are more like the glass. With the development of technology and the increase of production capacity, people can enjoy the benefits of it.
If both Xiaomi and Apple use the sapphire crystal glass, so in the field of domestic high-end smartphone, Corning Gorilla glass is hard to maintain a “monopoly”, after all, consumers are more like high configuration flagship mobile phone, even if the price is slightly increased.
Although 7th May has not yet to come, Huawei Ascend P7 has already unveiled entirely, and it can be confirmed that this is a press conference that only need to announce the price.
CHUWI VX3 has octa-core processor, 7-inch 1200p screen, priced at 999 yuan（$160）. But before the official specific configuration and there are some differences in exposure, the processor did not use 2GHz MTK6592, instead of using a universal version 1.7GHz, battery capacity is only 3000 mA.
CHUWI VX3 did not adopt the mainstream narrow bezel, but the thickness is only 7.6 mm, can be called a slim. The machine back cover with the metal material, feels good. Overall, the phone is not outstanding.
From the current test run, because of cost constraints, CHUWI VX3 does not use advanced IPS screen, visual effects tend to gray, seemed lower grade. CHUWI VX3’s system optimization is not very good, there will be some problems when used, which is a lot of domestic tablet and mobile phone a common problem.3000 mA battery capacity, became its fatal flaw. According to experience, CHUWI VX3 can only browse the network four hours, two hours to play the game.
