Intel British weida diversionary smart phone low: China into Internet

For intelligent cellphone chips for qualcomm dominance, the next two years, its days may not too easy, because Intel, the English weida (N VID IA), and other competitors are intensify efforts to rob food qualcomm's site.
Was held in the MW C (M obileW orldC ongress world communication meeting), Intel C EO otellini declared in a MOTOROLA (the Po) mobile, lenovo two big customers later, O range, zte communications (the Po), India native low-cost cellphones Lava giant also joined Intel smartphone group, which will be launched in early next year to $150 for the following the development of intelligent mobile platform Z2000; Another chip giant British weida also in the strength, also reached one thousand yuan (RMB) smartphone market.
Two big chip giant constantly for qualcomm customers, and prepare to aggressively into the one thousand yuan (RMB), the low price smart phone market, certainly will will pull in high-end smartphone low price. Industry insiders and high attention, smart phones on the market for low-cost, Intel, how will the cargo and LianFa division (micro Po) on the competition.
"Double British" chasing the low end of the cell phone market intelligence
In the mobile chip market, qualcomm dominant, as a newcomer, Intel, the English weida how to find market breakthrough? The low end of the smart phones become the common choice.
Consumer electronics show in Las Vegas earlier this year (C E S), Intel announced that MOTOROLA mobile, lenovo into Intel chip customers smart phones. Only in the past for more than a month, Intel's customer faction to increase again, O range, zte, Lava joined. Otellini said, these new clients are intelligent mobile platform will use Intel Z2460, from the time to the market to see, L ava fastest in the second quarter will be open at the beginning of the first Intel sold A ndroid intelligent mobile platform, O range is expected to first summer in France and Britain to the market, zte is to wait until the second half of this year.
Notable is, zte and L ava become Intel new customers, also be in to peer release information: Intel will attack the low end of the market to JiaoBan qualcomm. Zte from China, L ava from India, in these two countries, smartphone market is the rapid growth, especially ZhongDiDuan smart phones, but also has the huge demand. Otellini said, will be launched in early next year to $150 for the following the development of intelligent mobile phone Z2000 platform.
The low end of the smart cellphone market coveted outsiders not only Intel. In ten days before the British weida (N V ID IA) earnings conference, C E O HuangRenXun made it clear that, at present the weida value one thousand yuan (RMB) price cheap dual-core smart phones, in near the time will enter the market. HuangRenXun in accept SMW reporter to interview said: "compared with iP hone 4 S in domestic of such high price, 1000 yuan of cheap dual-core machines in China will have the market more. This for N V ID IA speaking is a very exciting opportunities, to enter the market is just a matter of time."
Faced with qualcomm, inc., mediatek inc. flanked
In Intel, the English weida opinion, the low end of the smartphone market potential is tremendous, before mobile chip is their foothold in the market and opportunities. However, the bed side or let others 21? Qualcomm, inc., mediatek inc. the two giants, of course, won't let Intel, the English weida easily grab food site. As China has become the world's largest smartphone market, especially ZhongDiDuan product is popular, huawei, zte launched operators and manufacturers of such cooperation smartphone one thousand yuan, is well received by customer. Therefore, at the low end of smart phones in the race, the Chinese market will undoubtedly is the Internet.
Start from the end, qualcomm in ZhongDiDuan smartphone chip a round of price war. Qualcomm will the launch of new dual-core intelligent chip solutions, from $50 price, to cut more than $40, and the price is one thousand yuan LianFa interval, smart phone solutions of the main battlefield. Last November, the products of the company QianZhiJun director in qualcomm shenzhen smartphone peak BBS says qualcomm in Shanghai new established the China r&d center will help small and medium-sized customers reduce technical doorsill, shorten the development time, and help China has authorized small and medium-sized customers pushed below $100 A ndroid of smart phones. "If you don't change the original design, as long as two or three months to launch new products."
LianFa department in the Chinese market management for many years, and the domestic mobile phone contact closely, smooth communication. Last August, LianFa smart phones, main chip MT 6573 mass market, production and marketing two flourishing, further strengthened LianFa families focus ZhongDiDuan intelligent chip determination. LianFa families had said the general manager qingjiang river, in 2012 will be $100 smart phone rapid growth, LianFa secco will fully benefit from the market growth. "Customized products and the power of the price has the advantage of LianFa families, even compared with qualcomm, to the service careful degree, or LianFa families for better."
Qualcomm, inc., mediatek inc. in one thousand yuan price intelligent cellphone market competition is already the hand-to-hand combat, this undoubtedly will be a great boost for Intel, the cargo into difficulty. Market experts doubt, for Intel, the cargo is concerned, mobile chip market will ultimately no into the poor?

Day 3 G mobile phone is to borrow to come back

With "SONY Ericsson (the Po)" turned and become pure of Japanese descent "SONY", February kyocera also began to spread in China mobile phone business and issued a double screen cellphone, NEC and leave the Chinese market in six years later once again planning mobile phone division. Between quietly, a few years ago out of the Chinese market, are making a comeback in the mobile phone.
Localization is the key
In 2005-2006, panasonic, Toshiba (the Po), mitsubishi, NEC DengRi mobile phone enterprise in the Chinese market is collective debacle, when one of the important reasons for the debacle, Japan is the world's first 3 G development one of the countries, mobile phone manufacturer also basic bound operators channel, but China 2 G phones era, the huge retail market competition from a mobile phone to enterprise success or failure, day now is ripe.
But as time passes by, China has walked into 3 G era. According to the statistical data of ai media consulting in 2011, according to the fourth quarter smart phone market of China of sales of 22.83 million, up 79.6%; China intelligence cell phone users difference is 223 million, accounting for 23.2% of the total mobile phone users. Relevant data to predict, domestic sales of smart phones this year will break 100 million department, this to any mobile phone manufacturer all has the huge attraction, the mobile phone of Japanese enterprise seems to once again see the hope.
But how to open the Chinese market again, of Japanese enterprise that mobile phone to is a daunting test. In Japan the domestic, mobile phone operators and depth cooperation, market research, etc by operators almost all depends, mobile phone manufacturer only research and development and the assembly can, research, promotion, sales these links all need not bother about, operation chamber of commerce for support. And in China, Japanese, enterprises need to trail for, get through all kinds of link, not enough localization experience, extremely hard to succeed. Th is urgently needed and local phone operators close cooperation.
In this respect, take the lead in the return of sharp moves rapidly. In 2011, the first to speed up product line in sharp transition, all products will switch to 3 G smartphones, but in 2010 years successful unicom custom again on the foundation of successful China telecom (the Po), China mobile (the Po) custom order, to take the lead in realizing the and in the three largest operators custom channel of comprehensive docking. And just starting to return to China market plan is will the kyocera hopes are the operators in them. According to information, its first released in China 3 G smartphones will be issued by China telecom customization.
The situation is not optimistic
Smartphone homogeneity in severe cases, is the appearance of the unique, cellphone features can attract part of the consumer. Japan's domestic 3 G smartphone development more mature, manufacturers of Japanese with ripe industrial design system, its unique appearance design is to pursue new consumers and female consumers have a lot of attractive.
However, due to the arrival of the era of 3 G, China mobile phone market has had the earth-shaking change, return to will not be easy.
The domestic market has been formed, day of mobile phone manufacturer wanted to break existing pattern was strongly will sniper. In the high-end market, when the enemy of Japanese mobile phone nokia (the Po), MOTOROLA (the Po) have scenery no longer, but the iPhone, samsung (the Po) by HTC (the Po) followed; And the low end of the market has been zte and huawei (the Po) one thousand yuan occupy smartphone; On the market in the international brand and homebred brand is in fierce competition, of Japanese vendors want to participate in will be difficult.
In addition, because from the Chinese market has for many years, consumers of Japanese mobile phone brand of widespread "alienation", it will no doubt of Japanese mobile phone will have to pay more efforts to get approved. In addition, low performance-to-price ratio of Japanese mobile phone is the shortcomings. Because of the lack of resources and the display screen technology, day is relatively higher priced mobile phone, plus many days is because the company can't form crop is smaller scale effect, as a result of the cost and relatively high price that will also be of Japanese manufacturers in China based on.
At present, the performance of the SONY cell phone is not satisfactory, 2011 SONY is expected total losses as high as 2.9 billion dollars. Cellphone business is concerned, new product launch too slow, localization high degree and product positioning not too reasonable issues affected SONY cell phone.

China telecom announced iPhone4S version in telecom on March 9, sale

People buy apple iPhone 4S will have more choices. China telecom (the Po) yesterday, announced in March 9 up sales this machine. This means that apple mobile phone sales of domestic operators to two, the market "catfish effect" is expected to appear, domestic CDMA user can also be used iPhone4S realize 3 G surfing the Internet.
Local reservation three channels can choose
Telecom version iPhone4S from March 2 nd accept reservations, citizens in shenzhen local can be arbitrarily choose three categories of booking channel: telecommunications business hall and authorized shops, telecom online business hall www.189.cn, su ning including store and other social channels.
The difference is, telecom business hall and authorized shops, su ning the unified in stores would March 9, iPhone4S to release the game simultaneously, in Internet booking shipping time will need to pay attention to system hints.
What is iPhone4S telecom version machine card one-piece, or mobile phones and a SIM card can separation? At present the industry explanations, China telecom is not clear position, perhaps bout to wait until March 9, to present.
Zero dollars buying machine must choose 289 January combo
China telecom iPhone4S sale, marks China unicom (the Po) a exclusive iPhone driving effects of the situation is broken. Two big operators is the most direct competition is one of the methods to set contract offer. After unicom version iPhone4S contrast, telecom version of the overall spending roughly equal.
The launch of the telecom iPhone4S contract is divided into two years, 3 10-year two kinds. The biggest concern zero dollars buying machine, 16 GB capacity for two years minimum choose 389 yuan of version on package, 32 GB version minimum choose 489 yuan on the package will be zero dollars buying machine; 3 10-year 16 GB, 32 GB version should be minimum choose 289 yuan on the package, 64 GB version should be minimum choose 389 yuan on the package.
Market reaction remains to be seen
Telecom iPhone4S sale than unicom late nearly two months, plus China Hong Kong earlier put on sale, so the market reaction to observe how to remain. On the other hand, China telecom cover perfect national network or can add cent.
By the end of last year, China telecom has become the world's biggest CDMA network operators, its 3 G network cover all to the cities at the county level and above and 90% of the towns, WiFi hotspot coverage to nearly 700000. At the same time, because of technical features and use frequency band, the relation between the CDMA system of the 3 G network coverage signal will be better.
Professional personage YangHaiFeng analysis, for existing telecommunication CDMA users, iPhone4S use at the same time, don't change, or have a certain appeal. In addition, telecom has a large number of customers between, combining with the advantages of fixed broadband bound, also can bring a lot of demand.
Erin experts MaiHaoChao points out, telecom iPhone4S there is a big sale of variables: its mobile phone user quite part is "C + G" double card users. That is the use of telecommunication CDMA network users, but also will use mobile or unicom network. This part of the users are often operators in high-end users on how many users to apple cellphone and give up double card, need time to test and verify.
Zero dollars buying machine whose more cost-effective?
Telecom unicom package preferential PK overall flat
Shenzhen special zone daily dispatch (reporter WuFan) operators iPhone4S sales, a big concern is hot citizens zero dollars buying machine is cost-effective. China telecom, China unicom in this respect to break the monopoly, introduced three file zero dollars buying machine package, and unicom head-on, what a more cost-effective?
Telecom announced yesterday zero dollars buying machine package, divided into 289 yuan, 389 yuan, 489 yuan three gears; The corresponding is China unicom 286 yuan, 386 yuan, 586 yuan three gears zero dollars buying machine package.
The two packages in the bag of voice calls total minutes is not the same, corresponding to the above three gears package, telecommunications field contains 990 minutes respectively, 1290 minutes, 1590 minutes; Unicom contains 900 minutes respectively, 1250 minutes, 1950 minutes. See not hard, telecom in low price in the package preferential more, its highest a package with unicom because prices vary of nearly 100 yuan, unicom package the giving of several minutes not have too much appeal.
Mobile Internet traffic, telecom contained 1.5 G respectively, 2 G and 3 G flow, unicom contained 1.1 G respectively, and 1.6 G and 2.5 G flow. Obviously, this is more favorable telecom.
Text messages, telecom three gears package are included 180 text messages, unicom contain 280 respectively, article 380 and article 580. Text messages, unicom more favourable.
According to the overall spending calculation, if buy 16 GB version citizens of the iPhone 4 S, and choose 2 years contract plan, the choice of the actual costs $9336 telecom yuan, the choice of the actual costs $9264 allied yuan. Telecom than unicom more than two years spending 72 dollars.
To citizens if buy 32 GB version of the iPhone 4 S as an example, and choose 3 year contract plan, the choice of the actual costs $10404 telecom yuan, the choice of the actual costs $10296 allied yuan. Telecom than unicom more than three years spending 108 yuan.
Mobile Internet has become increasingly popular, the biggest advantage of smart cellphones and mobile Internet access is, the bo, micro letter, fly letters instant messaging tools are gradually rob to text messages of thunder. Telecom as newcomers, in order to enhance competitiveness, in the zero dollars buying machine package provides more attractive aspects obviously.
It is worth noting that, telecom currently only released three gears package, other packages to March 2, to not be available, unicom definitely won't for users to telecom sitting idly by. The two operators of preferential PK is expected to launch, when consumer is expected to get more affordable.

According to the GSMA (global mobile communication association) recently published reports, mobile broadband connection speed the slowest two countries are India and China. Instead, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Asia Pacific regions and countries, mobile phones are faster speeds. By 2010, India and China's average respectively for connection speed only 19 KBPS and 50 KPBS. But Japan and South Korea, the average speed of up to 1400 KBPS.
But because of relations between the two countries have cell phone Internet development is rapid, GSMA also gives optimistic estimate. GSMA think, according to the present rate, by 2015, the average Indian operators mobile broadband speed will reach 1037 Kbps, which China can be up to 1384 Kbps. But it is still far behind in other countries--because when South Korea will reach 4984 Kbps, Australia and New Zealand will reach 5194 Kbps.
For the report of the GSMA, insiders think, China 2009 years to send 3 G card, 3 G users until 2011 number in advance by leaps and bounds. Therefore, the GSMA report cited a 2010 data is inappropriate.
"The current domestic mobile to cellphone video business net impact." A domestic video web site a executives told reporters, domestic mobile phone video website development is slow, largely from mobile Internet speed universal unpleasant, and price is relatively high price. Therefore, although cell phone video business is generally considered "gold business", but in the short term is still difficult to have the significant breakthrough.

Nokia have big test: Lumia series machines are turning into new hope

Nokia (the Po) CEO Stephen Evans the roper capable of talk of the art, always like on the proper business said before a small story thought-provoking. In February last year, take charge of the KangPeiKai nokia has the roper to all employees send internal memo, will nokia situation compared to the north sea oil "burning platform.
That's the roper, behind nokia's internal attitude is partially to blame, failed to timely innovation, resulting in smart phones behind The Times. He detailed points out: apple iOS and Google (the Po) Android has controlled the high-end market, nokia has been behind years; In the development of the market saiban slowly, in the developed markets without competitive power.
The original has been burning platform, we must choose a new ark. Worry in the Android machine the sea lost nokia only rely on is Microsoft (the Po). In February last year, two companies announced a strategic cooperation relationship; Nokia will use Microsoft's Windows Phone operating system, and will participate in system development.
In an the roper, under the leadership of the nokia started pain but determined to transform the way: will saiban outsourcing to accenture, Meego aside follow-up research and development, to dive into the Microsoft mobile r&d; At the same time in the global mass layoffs, and will r&d and manufacturing departments gradually moved to China and other regions, reducing operating expenses.
Transformation will be painful, it will directly influence short-term performance, is perhaps the most suffering last year nokia of time. Nordic culture makes the rigorous nokia choose steadily WP mobile r&d, but apple iPhone from further dominate high-end market, Android with battle group rob market share, nokia under unprecedented pressure.
"Pale" behind performance
In the past year, now nokia actually status? 1 at the end of the month, nokia announced the fourth quarter results. On the apple's dazzling earnings shadow, a lot of people see from the same period last year when nokia profit of 980 million euros to losses of $1.4 billion a dismal performance, but not on nokia mobile phone sales performance WP beyond.
But in fact, this is a huge losses including $1.88 billion of assets write-off, including $1.43 billion from nokia positioning and commercial business department of the offset the goodwill. If not including special project, nokia is actually being a profit of 297 million dollars.
And Microsoft announced the alliance in after eight months, nokia in October last year London released two paragraph WP mobile: high-end Lumia 800 and the 710 in. In the fourth quarter, these two section WP mobile phone sales of 1 million department, more than many analysts expected.
Due to the fourth quarter Lumia two phone only in the European market sales, considering nokia in WP platform only just started, the sales performance is not actually sent, and most of them from the 800 in high-end sales. Nokia share price in the market analysis digestion performance rose 7% after it proves it.
Give special treatment
According to market research firm Canalys data, last year global smart cellphone shipments (of 487.7 million) for the first time exceeded PC (of 414.6 million), and FaHuoLiang PC is more 15% comes from the tablet computer. As mobile equipment inevitably become the mainstream, the PC era dominance of Microsoft feeling never have pressure.
Apple iPhone with become the world's most valuable company. A quarter, only the iPhone revenue ($24.4 billion) and profit ($9.3 billion), more than the entire company to Microsoft ($20.9 billion and $8.2 billion, respectively). Last year, apple iPhone sales totaled 93 million in the world, only 6% market share, but get 75% of the profits.
Although Microsoft has a weak performance in the mobile area, but this is a loser war, defeat means lost the future, so they don't hesitate claims to dive into the mobile business. In view of the original partners samsung (the Po) and HTC (the Po) are more emphasis on Android platform, Microsoft urgently need a loyal cooperation partners, but nokia has become the only perfect choice and Microsoft.
Because of this, Microsoft to nokia unprecedented support. Nokia WP department Waldemar Sakalus said to President sina science and technology, said only nokia promised comprehensive use of WP platform, so actually enjoy the "difference" to treat. In line with the agreement, the next few years Microsoft will provide to the nokia dollar support, sheet is the fourth quarter to reach 250 million dollars.
Closeto the hardware
In addition to the 710 and 800 before the release, nokia and in January this year the CES releases during the flagship phone 900. Although rumours 910 has been nokia the officials denied, but according to the roper said Evans of the strategy, nokia is certainly more models, and, in the end and the high-end market of all.
For cellphone field years overlord, nokia mobile phones in the design of hardware and related services with deep accumulation. Lumia mobile phone in hardware is is well-grounded, high-end type of shell, and the screen and camera etc is not inferior at the apple iPhone. And nokia unique navigation, video and music services is has obvious advantages.
Lumia 900 won the best smartphone CES awards, this phone is nokia best reflects the hardware strength. In the image, nokia and optical giant CaiSi have long-term cooperation; Navigation, nokia's navigation service completely free, and navigation services and professional par; Music, nokia shop price advantage more than apple iTunes for the China market.
Nokia, senior vice President of Kevin Shields is currently leading the research and development of the WP department, he had been in Microsoft from 21 years resume can see the close relationship between Microsoft and nokia. According to Microsoft sources, nokia stationed Microsoft headquarters at least keep the engineer in 50 people scale, both parties in common with perfect WP platform.
Mentality positioning challenge
Nokia China a senior project manager to sina science and technology revealed that, in addition to product strategy of change, nokia top attitude has also had the obvious change, in a sharp fall in the market condition, high mentality from the previous "me" to "primarily by the market primarily" ego orientation also from "the sovereignty," into "challenger".
He explained, China executives had hard to persuade executives to understand China headquarters market demand, according to actual situation to make marketing and orientation strategy; But now, Mr The roper and other new management will be more active to according to the consumer demand and competitors, make the performance and pricing are competitive products.
Pricing is best example. As soon as possible in order to shares of market, nokia Lumia series pricing is "close to people". Lumia in 710 in the United States, in fact, have 0 yuan sold machine, the price of 800 or 3000 yuan, the flagship in 900 in the United States in two contract price to only $100.
And in the promotion, nokia and Microsoft is never had the spare no effort. Microsoft CEO Steve ballmer and also the roper appearance together many times issued by the new products, in addition to the $31 million in last year Microsoft promotion funding, more news that nokia and Microsoft is willing to spend $100 million for Lumia 900 promotion.
Focusing on the market
Even in the era of nokia seek hegemony, nokia in the American market and no leading position. Top on the us market is the biggest reason disregard, Europe and the asia-pacific market has brought great sales and profits, and the United States for nokia to more like an edge for market.
But Mr The roper after taking office, precisely, nokia has decided to turn to Microsoft platform, the market is of great significance. Here is not only the big three mobile platform location, the more come together as one of the most influential media global science and technology, and numerous application developers. In the United States market take share, no doubt, will be greatly boosted the popularity of nokia.
China is the most important WP nokia mobile phone market growth. China not only smart phone market sales huge, grading obviously, there is a huge space outside the iPhone, this is the best position WP mobile phone scale. Nokia a source said, the company will r&d and manufacturing to China, China in nokia executives the discourse right also has the obvious ascension.
Nokia China ZhaoKeLin President last year, said, Lumia series in China this year in three operators, in high school all low-end field for the China market. According to the latest news, China telecom (the Po) will be released in March Lumia 800 CDMA version, and with series 710 and 900 will also be on the market in succession.
Has the roper self-confidence
In addition, the application developers also to Microsoft WP platform brought the bottom spirit. The application of application store WP Microsoft has exceeded 60000 total paragraph, the growth rate of 400 a day, is three Pacific taichung the fastest. Although it is not and apple and Google compared to the number of stores, but users frequently used applications is a limited number of, at least at present has disadvantages WP is very small.
To developers, the rise of WP platform has a positive meaning. On the one hand may increase their and apple and Google platform bargaining space, on the other hand the Android platform fragmentation and pay channel is facing the developers not small obstacles, and can control the Microsoft platform brought them a no less than apple's good profit channel.
Up to 2011 at the end of the fiscal year, nokia have cash and cash equivalents is $13.7 billion, and Microsoft has promised investment of the dollar. And function mobile phones and Symbian in the markets thoroughly before, still can give nokia to bring the huge revenues. To be sure, the nokia have sufficient financial resources to support WP in popularization of cellphones.
If the fourth quarter of the WP strategy for nokia is just just start, so fiscal year 2012 the year of the final exam is nokia. Has the roper nokia redeemed strategy can be cured, Microsoft WP platform in apple and Google can under the shadow of the stand firm, everything depends on the market, depends on whether consumers choose Lumia series.
Has the roper said Monday, the company had been out of the danger zone, maybe his confidence from the Microsoft alliance, the software and hardware of the mobile phone from Lumia strength. But the market is everything, nokia really took to the back roads, will have to see the results of the 2012 final exam; If no consumer "rescue", perhaps has the roper will suddenly find themselves are still in the icy water.

Huawei YuChengDong: terminal impediment in the brand and channels

The international consumer electronics show (CES) eve, huawei (the Po) terminal of President of limited company of YuChengDong (the Po) to the cellphone line manager Bruce lee PDT poked fun: "23 years ago a Bruce lee on their own time, make the United States today and have a Bruce lee with several world the first cell phone kung fu shocked the world." Don't empty-more than said that participate in the design of lee Ascend P1 S is when th CES show the conspicuous star-the United States IT is in check CES popular website PCWorld smart phones, huawei this phone rank high on the list. It is only 6.68 mm thickness of the world's most thin of a new generation of smart phones, skeptical colleagues or bring vernier caliper entity measurement huawei prototype.
Huawei is the world's ninth largest mobile equipment manufacturers, and hope that 2015 years ago the top three promotion. For terminal business in China, the past year is the year of the harvest. According to Gartner research institutions statistics show that, in the ended sept. 30, 2011 year, huawei global market share has from 1.3% to 2.4%, almost doubled. 2011 annual sales climbed to $6.7 billion, terminal FaHuoLiang breakthrough 150 million units, up 30%, more than 20 million sets of smart phones, turned over 5 times.
It's hard to believe, was established in 2003 in the terminal business group has been regarded as huawei internal poor business. It's just outside the main business before to cooperate with big customers and developed to additional business until 2007, the year just started selling mobile phones, and mainly is the telecommunications operator customization mobile phone, huawei and no product say, only OEM production just. Until 2010, huawei began selling directly to consumers. It was about to sell or stripping the rumours of listed-in 2007 to over 2008 years, huawei once would like to sell terminal business to increase cash flow.
Ascend P1 S d-will, or will become huawei terminals business recreating the precursor. Huawei shipments though up to 20 million units, but about 65% of cell phone still rely on operator customization, its retail distribution compared to just 35%. For the average user is concerned, huawei is still a weak brand.
The key depends on the first brand reshape how makes killer product. Change is occurring. In huawei is located in shenzhen smartphone and tablet computer design center in, put finding a rare chance of 3 D printer, the unit price is equivalent to a BMW sedan. This machine is the basis of virtual computer generated three-dimensional drawing of the actual size mobile phone mold. And in the past, the design staff should be complete this process to the factory.
Decorate exquisite on wall is full of hand-painted of draft plans, all around the various experimental is visible products: 4 G wireless charging ShangWangKa, smart phone, remote intelligent terminal and all kinds of smart cellphones. Huawei terminals company phone product chief design director FanWenDi (Hagen Fendler) here is the leader. In addition to be responsible for huawei terminals appearance design outside, this was a Siemens (the Po) product conceptual design of the director of German still leads a distribution in Europe and the United States, Japan, China's total more than 300 design team, in the internal it is known as "terminal consumer experience in design heart".
FanWenDi eyes successful design standards as follows: design should involve strategy; In the global recognition; A long-term goal; Have a unique category or brand; To bring the company stable economic income.
FanWenDi hope to achieve all this in huawei. The work of the essence of the first is opposed to work behind the closed doors. Contrast test is a part. Designers will be free to use on the market of trendy electronic products, and then write experience and share experiences.
In the work mechanism, FanWenDi even set the two laws: ID (industrial design) traction hardware; UE (user experience) drawing software to make design and user experience to have more power. For example once ID stylist think cell phones arc design will ascend appearance user experience, but the structural engineer on hardware that it is difficult to reach, the latter must obey the former.
Ascend P1 S appear has proven Chinese engineers amazing talent. Huawei study found that smart phones each reduce 1 mm thickness, control the sense of joy can at least increased by more than 5%. The engineers bear the brunt of the problem was to smart phones in a narrow space internal reasonable place the battery, circuit boards, chip, antenna, screen core components. Second is the premise of the performance without sacrificing ordered its work together. The engineers finally adopted innovation mould and molding process, make its battery cover thickness thin 40% year-on-year; Innovative architecture design and highly integrated custom components for key components provide for maximum space, and ensure the excellent antenna performance, sound quality experience and the use of long time; Through the power management of innovation, huawei can realize more than the average level of at least 30% power saving effect. The traditional average 0.7 mm thickness screen or so, Ascend P1 S screen only 0.55 mm thickness, fully reduced by 20% or more.
The birth of Ascend P1 S also benefit from huawei communication technology of the whole. Such as signal instability will cause cellular phone in different signal in jump, caused power fast consumption. Huawei optimized Ascend P1 S SouWang algorithm, using automatic tracking stations performance technology, to ensure that connect the signal faster and greatly increase the standby time.
Huawei terminals past success thanks to its operator bound strategy. This makes huawei to avoid and nokia (the Po), and other mobile phone giant confrontation, also brought many end derivatives business. In data card, for example, huawei in Europe kept close to 70% of the market share. Today, the global top 50 telecom operators and huawei have more cooperation relations, plus the cost of outstanding ability and the product price control, huawei quickly, including the United States, with Japan and Western Europe, the more than 70 countries and regions, in only one year he ascends to Android smart phones FaHuoLiang global top five.
How to run win the future? YuChengDong think huawei terminals of the biggest constraints in the brand and the channel ability. Huawei had no single operation end products of successful cases--even in the most familiar with market in China, people for the brand in China cellphone still feeling strange. The star of the birth of the product still depend on the crucible of operators. Whether for in huawei mobile phone business outside for a separate set of problems is the brand, and huawei have internal debate over two years, still no "theory.

Android mobile operators earnings went away much less serious problems like homogeneity

Each big manufacturer Posting a fiscal year 2011 fourth quarter earnings, and several glad andros camp several sorrow. Is Google (the Po) takeover of the MOTOROLA (the Po) mobile fourth quarter net loss of $80 million, and the sharp contrast of the last year of $80 million is net profit; HTC (the Po) quarter net profit dropped 25.5%, for the first time in two years net profits drop; Or, in the near future is SONY took over SONY Ericsson is completely lost, the fourth quarter 247 million euros pre-tax loss, mobile phone shipments a 20% decline from...... In profitability is the ideal environment, samsung (the Po) but performance is quite good, the fourth quarter net profit rose 17% from the same period the previous year, with mobile phones earnings nearly 50% of the total profit.
The whole, the development of the two camps situation is not optimistic. Analysis that because of the whole economic recession this year, consumers in mobile phone renewal could achieve hesitate, phone manufacturers or so will usher in a period of slow growth of winter. Plus its existing product homogeneity, customer information security PinZao torture, system version chaos, application market good and evil people mixed up and patent war mire in, iec need to be regulated and perfect result.
2011 Q4 is prevented earnings Android camp mobile phone manufacturer several joy several sorrow
Recently, the mobile phone manufacturer fiscal year 2011 fourth quarter earnings report released in succession, including samsung, MOTOROLA, HTC andros faction, is a few manufacturer glad several sorrow.
MOTOROLA mobile although "her" Google, but still failed to recover losses. According to a MOTOROLA mobile release of the fiscal year 2011 fourth quarter earnings data shows, MOTOROLA mobile fourth quarter net income of $3.436 billion, slightly higher than the same period last year of $3.425 billion; But at the same time, the net loss for 80 million dollars, and the net profit of $80 million in the same period last year. Analysis thinks, the loss is the main reason of the mobile equipment department losses increase.
Faced with apple, samsung's Nemesis pressure of competition, as a "Google three musketeers" the situation is also one of the HTC grim. According to published HTC in 2011 the fourth quarter results showed that its net profit of nt $11.02 billion quarter, compared with a 25.5% decline, this is the first time in two years for net profit drop; Annulus comparing was as high as 41%.
Has the disappearance of the brand "SONY Ericsson" situation is not a pretty sight. SONY Ericsson recently reported that its fourth quarter 9 million in the only phone shipments, 20% year-on-year drop; The revenue to see, its fourth quarter pre-tax loss of 247 million euros ($316.57 million), far less than analysts expected a small profit. SONY Ericsson's CEO BaiNuo (Bert Nordberg) said in a statement, the fourth quarter financial performance is the fierce market competition, the macroeconomic environment, bad company restructuring and Thailand floods factors.
There is so much pain in a andros camp, seems to be the only samsung performance let a person shine at the moment. Although apple took away the largest intelligent mobile phone manufacturer's crown, but from the whole level of earnings it is a good result. According to the fourth quarter earnings by samsung show, its quarterly operating profit of 5.3 trillion won, up 75.8%, in line with the company previously predicted 73% growth target; In addition, samsung net profit of 4 trillion won in the fourth quarter, 17% increase over the same period of the previous year. Be worth what carry is, its mobile operations, or was it a cellphone dominant mobile communications business sales profit all accounted for nearly 50% of the profits.
The two camps manufacturers job
Because of its openness, andros system once roll out, be the favour of the major manufacturers, in recent years, the report card is also proud of surrender repeatedly. According to the market research analyst firm IDC projects, 2011 intelligent mobile phone will be shipped to 450 million units, 39.5% for Android system product launch, shipments of the biggest manufacturer is samsung, and the iPhone market share of rate is only 15.7%. However, from 2011, the big mobile phone manufacturer's fourth quarter earnings can see that, overall, the development of the two camps manufacturers now the situation is not optimistic.
In fact, this and apple was related to millions of people. According to research firm Nielsen released in 2011, the U.S. smartphone market in the fourth quarter, data showed that analysis report in December's survey, 46.9% of the smartphone user choose new the Android mobile phones. And in the iPhone 4 S before release, this rates as high as 61.6%. At present, Android smart phone users in all the share is 43.6%, and the iPhone is 30%. Visible, Android smart phone users in the new lead is narrowing.
Despite the fierce competition with apple, from camp for internal, Google and MOTOROLA between "ambiguous" relationship, let the other manufacturers hard "with", samsung, such as the HTC manufacturer is also different mentality. Samsung is working hard to develop their own Bada system market potential. According to media reports, samsung plans next to the external developers and equipment manufacturers Bada open mobile operating system, in order to promote the growth of this system, and in litigation of increasing Numbers of smartphones and tablet computer field to reduce dependence on Google Android system. HTC will also be an eye on Window Phone 7 and hewlett-packard (micro Po) webOS and other mobile operating system, the message says, the company is currently purchase HP webOS system to measure, or buy other mobile operating system. In addition, belonging to SONY, SONY Ericsson business may appear better is a piece of the unknown.
To perfect the iec andros integration
Analysis showed, as the global recession this year, the big environment influence, consumers may be upgrading to hesitate on mobile phones, cell phone makers fear will therefore have a slow growth of winter. Each big manufacturers to the fourth quarter of 2011 mobile phone sales unsatisfactory results seem to confirm the development status of a downturn.
And the market itself is also questions result. First, the openness of the two system itself though is to attract manufacturer is one of the main reasons why, but so make phone product homogeneity serious, this has been beset faction of the manufacturer is a great result. Second, the security of the system leak andros become serious, point to carry two mobile phone operating system is a growing number of malicious software, this also let many users complain. Third, the result is various and chaos system version, according to the latest Android operating system map shows, although have introduced the latest 4.0 operating system, but still have 50% of the equipment running 2.3 "ginger bread" andros, about 35% of the equipment is still in operation andros 2.2 "frozen yogurt," even launch has quickly have two years of andros 2.1 "cream sandwich dessert" have 9.6% market share, version fragmentation is undoubtedly the need to solve a problem. In addition, the application of good and evil people mixed up the market and the ongoing patent war, also makes the andros market "disorderly and chaos".
Therefore, the whole should result should be improved. But so, can deal with the fierce competition in the  cellphone market, to better manage or will get into the slow growth of winter market.
