They discovered that LG is about to released several new devices, one of the models named “LG-LS990”, and could be Sprint’s version of the LG G3. According to leaks, the device has 32GB card storage, 2GB internal storage, a 2.4 megapixel front camera and a 16 megapixel main camera. Other than the leaked specifications, the alternative media has also leaked about the new interface, confirmed to be the “Concierge” service.
The Concierge service will collect various messages and your phone use habits, and recommend relevant contact to the phone user by following a complicated algorithm . For example, in the image above, you can see the AccuWeather weather and time widget – the Concierge service will automatically follow the weather for that afternoon and notify the user to bring an umbrella out.

23 April is an exciting day. In addition to Xiaomi and OnePlus, Nubia has also been very active.
Previously, Nubia wrote on their official website that, “April 23, whatever must come, will come.”, so only announcing the X6 on the market might not be enough. If there were no shenanigans, how will consumers be attracted?
A netizen posted a concept art of nubia’s new device, which looks similar to the X6 in terms of design. On further comparison, the new device’s receiver and camera were adjusted slightly.
Is this for real? According to sources that leaked the news to this writer, nubia plans to release a mini version of the X6, which sounds reasonable and viable, as the 6.4 inch X6 may not be comfortable with everyone, so having a mini version is not out of the question. Beside, all the companies are doing it.
In addition, the source has also revealed that the display for this phone may be around 5.5 inches, with 1080p capabilities, which fits the specifications of the X6. If that is really the case, that means this phone will also have two specifications, with Snapdragon 800 and 2GB of RAM, or Snapdragon 801 and 3GB of RAM, with 13 megapixel front and back cameras, and running on the newest Nubia UI 2.0, and supporting TD/FDD and 4G.
The aim, the source revealed, for this model is to trump the upcoming Xiaomi 3S. Whether Nubia will release this new model tomorrow, we will have to wait and see.

There has been a lot of news regarding the Xiaomi tablet recently. Currently most people believe the Xiaomi table with have an 8-inch touchscreen display (2048 x 1536 resolution), and run on a NVIDIA Tegra K1 processor with a Foxconn OEM. However, today, sources discovered from Foxconn that the Xiaomi tablet actually has a variety of options to choose from.
According to a micro-blog user’s private intelligence leaks, currently the Xiaomi model used for testing by Foxconn uses a 7.85 inch 2048 x 1536 touchscreen display, with the processor actually being an Intel BayTrail-T CR Quad-Core. Xiaomi considered using Intel because Intel provided a higher subsidy for tablet processors, and provided impressive performance. With the assurance of quality as well as reduced manufacturing costs, Foxconn has already produced around 100 units of a prototype for testing.
Along with Foxconn, Xiaomi also has hired Taiwan’s Inventec to commence testing, and the device specifications of the model being tested by Inventec features an NVIDIA Tegra K1. It is uncertain whether Xiaomi will actually release both variations onto the market, or decide on one.
Comparatively peaking, the possibility of Xiaomi releasing the Intel model is higher, as Intel’s branding is more prominent, and is more powerful in terms of supply and product subsidies. Adding Xiaomi’s huge marketing power, Intel may put Xiaomi in a more favourable position.
Lastly, comparing the similarities, currently Xiaomi has not let Foxconn go ahead with preparations, therefore it is still very early in the production phase. Looking at the schedule, it looks like the Xiaomi tablet will only meet us during the third quarter earliest.

Police Investigation Leaked on Net, Result: “There are no Problems with the Company”
Today at 12 noon, Netease Technologies leaked on Weibo about how police entered the company grounds of Kuaibo and controlled all its staff, sealing up the company computers.
The Weibo message claims, “The news says that today at 11am, a huge number of police officers entered Kuaibo Company, controlled all their staff, and prohibited touch of all phones and computers, and sealed up all of the company computers. It is currently still ongoing.”
Afterwards, a leaked internal e-mail from CEO Wangxin states, “The company is okay, we are contacting our lawyers.” At the same time, she says that company management is handling the case.
Netease Technologies tried to contact CEO Wangxin to understand the sitaion, but was transferred to a lady who states, “Wangxin is out on business.” She is unaware of what had happened.
Internal employees within Kuaibo have also expressed to the media, that Kuaibo’s company restructuring from some time ago had a big impact on the internet, and that the police only came to understand the situation and had left the premises, and that the staff were all on their afternoon break. They claim the report to be an exaggeration.
Last week, Kuaibo announced that the company would be restructuring from a technology company to a content creation company, and will be cleaning out pirated and vulgar content, closing their QVOD service platform, and stopping their video-on-demand services and downloads.
Kuaibo states that copyright protection-wise, they will be investing CNY 1 billion to build original content, as well as CNY 30 million to support local movie innovations.

He felt that if Kuaibo were to close, it would be the result of Sohu’s strategy. He says, “Regarding Baido video and Kuaibo’s shutdown, it is the result of our second battle with copyright.”
One phone makes a $30, how is that high tech, high quality? Ren Zhenfei’s armour-piercing question may serve as a wake up call for the country’s huge manufacturing industry.
For an Apple iPhone or iPad, China’s entrepreneurs participated in a majority of the production chain, but the hard efforts of the countless workers makes them an insignificant part in the value chain, and makes it harder to shake Apple off as the technology provider and supplier to obtain a slice of the lucrative pie.
Talking from this perspective, Ren Zhenfei viewpoint – that Hermes didn’t collapses, but various small manufacturers did – reflects about how becoming a manufacturing superpower is not just about being a big manufacturing country. Even though Ren Zhenfei says not to blindly follow Apple, he still realized the core essence of the company.
Ren Zhenfei (Huawei CEO)
In a time of big opportunities, we must not have opportunism; we must have strategy and perseverance.
The Consumer Business Group must stick to their strategies and uphold their values, adhere to the paths and ideas which word, and advance forward. In the past two years, the Consumer Business Group has grown from an unstable state to a viable state. Without the efforts of the tens and thousands of employees, the consumer’s Consumer Business Group would not be where it is today, and this is worth celebrating.
I am talking to everyone today for the purpose of dissuading you from following the rules, setting Apple, Samsung and Xiaomi and lose our identities in the process. Of course, we have to learn from Apple, Samsung and Xiaomi with what they did right, but we must not blindly aim to be like them.
Firstly, “Who Am I?” I am me, and will adhere to my own path.
Apple’s annual profits reach US$500 billion, and Samsung’s annual profits are US$400 billion, if you can produce a US$300 billion profit, I will recognize you as the world’s third best.
Secondly, “Where am I going?” We need to keep on moving, prioritizing profits, and have strict control over our inventory risk.
Thirdly, “We have to find out what kind of path we want to travel down.” We cannot be Apple and we cannot be Samsung, so do not follow someone just because they found success.
I am not here to criticize you and shoot you down. I just hope the Consumer Business Group can clearly find our own method of expanding.
