IPhone user satisfaction for seven times become the highest smartphone

The American market research company J.D. Power of the new report, iPhone user satisfaction for seven times become the highest smartphone, but many users with the ability to run the battery products dissatisfaction.

J.D. Power every half an annual meeting on a smart phone satisfaction survey, full marks for 1000 points, apple the results with 839 points straight industry first. The company in performance, usability, function and physical design all did well, but the most satisfactory or function and accessibility.

HTC (the Po) the results with 798 points in the second, followed by samsung (the Po) (769) and MOTOROLA (the Po) mobile (758).

Investigation shows, battery life time is the most intelligent mobile phone users are not happy with the respect, also is a few a few satisfaction is lower than last September index. Ironically, iPhone 4 S battery life time was also many users criticism. Apple attempts to upgrade a system to fix the problem, and last week launched iOS 5.1. But many users, said after the upgrade, problems still exist.

In addition, 4 G mobile phone battery life ability also less than 3 G phones. The need to search 4 G signal, make this kind of product power consumption increase. J.D. Power also found that 4 G users of mobile phone use higher frequency, leading to battery more nervous. The third generation iPad is the first 4 G integration modules of the apple mobile devices, the company is expected to begin in the next generation iPhone is integrated in the chip.

Nokia CEO: don't worry about $one thousand smartphone

2012 for nokia (the Po) certainly is extremely important for a year, after fiscal year 2011 for three quarters of huge losses, after his last year with Microsoft (the Po) alliance builds of "help weapon"-Lumia series intelligent cellphone finally will be launched in the market overall counterattack. But as the world's most important in nokia regional market, China market more is the strategic counter-offensive essential part of. Therefore, last week, nokia CEO Stephen YiLuoPu fought Shanghai, chengdu, guangzhou, domestic more important cities, for employees in China morale, but also provide a sides, March 28, Windows Phone platform based on the nokia smart phones will be formal debut in China.

"Acceleration" deal with one thousand yuan smartphone challenge

"From last year we announced strategic transformation and a collaboration with Microsoft, the company has changed a lot, especially the schedule is continually fsater." In accepting the southern daily reporter interview, YiLuoPu the truth for nokia current transformation is very satisfied with the speed. According to this, decided to use Windows Phone in the system platform, the company has released last year not only advocate hit the middle and high-end of the Lumia 800, 900, the flagship product, also releasing the 710, 610, the low price of products, "product layout is perfect." And this is in the Chinese market for its comprehensive send force ready in advance.

In talking about why related products in mainland China market time to market than other countries and areas to evening many, YiLuoPu said the main is waiting to work in the field of application localization, "for the first time is released, so the preparatory work more, but subsequent product can do and international synchronized......." And for the current domestic market one thousand yuan Android smartphone has blossom everywhere situation, YiLuoPu said the not too worried about: "on the one hand, we Lumia series of will accelerate the whole price range, and constantly introduce low-cost products, on the other hand we against the cell phone also enhance Symbian system of intelligent function, to cope with the demand of the market."

Keep attention but are not involved in tablet computer

The YiLuoPu said that the future constantly strengthen and Microsoft's strategic cooperation will be the direction of nokia insist, "not only for Microsoft Windows platform is of great significance for nokia, so, too, in the future, so we will be based on the Windows platform based on continuously introducing their own technology." According to its revealed that in the future Windows Phone products, nokia will be introduced gradually in MWC after release on taking pictures PureView intelligence technology, in order to bring better consumer smart Phone video experience.

For the present in the Android smartphone increasingly fierce competition of multi-core processors, YiLuoPu but cautious support attitude. In his view, the dual-core even four nuclear although will give smart phones bring more powerful performance, but greatly reduce the cell phone of standby time, "this, to a certain extent influence the user experience, and pursue the best user experience is what we should do." For the same reasons, for the prosperity of bright red tablet computer market, YiLuoPu also said nokia will temporarily keep attention attitude, but its also said that, if partners in flat computers Microsoft big screen terminal equipment operating system have significant breakthrough of words, nokia may also can have the action.

The New iPhone released in September this year

According to Japanese technology blog Macotakara revealed that the new iPhone in iPhone 4 S will release a year later release that this year in September or October release. And according to domestic analysts say, iPhone 4 S will be shipped in the April half reduction, for the new iPhone that way. The web site CNET March 10, KanWen says, new iPad also suggested that the new iPhone technical index.

The September sixth generation iPhone release

"The new iPhone in June, the fastest out slow also on August out." A few days ago, domestic electronics industry analysts say so. But from another industry analysts news, iPhone 4 S supplier April shipments will decline in half, and apparently the new iPhone will out. Previously, according to people familiar with the Japanese media Macotakara quoted, saying that the next generation iPhone is expected to apple in September or October appeared for the first time, the release of the iPhone 4 S distance probably time for 1 year. In the autumn released new products are not apple iPhone the traditional approach, it before a few years mostly in June or July release new iPhone products. But in last year's global developers conference have not been issued on the new iPhone.

New iPhone borrow new iPad technology

CNET reporter donoghue DE Bell (Donald Bell) argues that, only by the New iPad upgrade, apple can increase in tablet computer chips in the market competition. Through the apple iPad to new improvement, the outside world can guess to the next generation iPhone possible change.

First is the screen, and the new iPad QXGA screen resolution 2048 x1536 support. This is an important improvement and the resolution of the new iPad than the current market condition all tablet computer and a notebook. If the size of the next generation iPhone apple increased to 4 inches, also will be ascension screen resolution. And the new iPad, new iPhone may also keep appearance design unchanged. Despite rumours suggest, the size of the next generation iPhone will be more thin, or the appearance of tears, but not probable.

IPad to 4 G technology support show that future iPhone would support a technology. LTE technology can provide faster data transmission speed. Apple technical support of LTE late is not surprising, because apple want to ensure that new technology can bring the expected user experience.

Guangdong mobile phone complaints for many years ranked first

The whole province in 2011 had dealt with 84169 pieces of consumer complaints, up by 3.72%; Solve 81637 units, up 14.22%, for the consumer to recall the economic loss of 86.7109 million yuan.

Four nuclear mobile phone manufacturer adventure: the high cost of market demand not urgent

In PC field, there is a famous Moore's law, common explanation is computer chip performance every 18 months will double, evidence of Moore's prospective. Moore's law in the PC industry to gallop after forty years, seems to be on the cellphone again punches. In this year's global mobile communications conference (MWC), each big brand mobile phone manufacturer haste to release the new products, new products and the first key words is one of the four nuclear.

And some analysts view, the "nuclear arms race" come some early, the cell phone battery technology has not yet breakthrough, power consumption is a big problem fatal weakness, in the mobile phone applications, and there are no four nuclear to support.

News background

Magging issues.it four nuclear mobile phones

Four nuclear cell phone camp including huawei, zte, HTC, LG, etc. Huawei launched Ascend D quad mobile phone, launch Android 4.0 operating system, USES is independent design haisi huawei four processors. LG Optimus by 4 X HD, zte Era, HTC's One X are using the company's Tegra3 NVIDIA four processors.

Four nuclear mobile phone no doubt have become the MWC conference window, but also become the focus of dispute. Although belong to four nuclear camp, but this several manufacturers but not harmonious, huawei and LG have said their new product is the world's first four nuclear andros mobile phones. MWC during the exhibition, huawei terminals chairman YuChengDong (the Po) is still in the Po to another enterprise "not naming names criticism", says "the enterprise four smart phone and no nuclear development mature."

And the other not push four nuclear product manufacturers is to LG, HTC and manufacturers launched four nuclear smartphone show his disdain and calm, Microsoft (the Po) Windows Phone departments of the truth: "four nuclear mobile Phone competition is ridiculous, not was necessary completely. Like digital camera pixel war that, mobile Phone manufacturer is only playing with Numbers game." Microsoft's the personage says, nokia (the Po) Lumia 800 etc Windows Phone mobile phones don't need four nuclear processor can quickly running applications. In addition to Microsoft, SONY mobile departments also say four processors is not suitable for smart phones.

The battery into the biggest obstacles

Smart phone replace function machine is an inevitable trend, people use contentedly smartphone, but found a little regret can't make up for, and that is the power consumption smartphone is too big, mobile phone standby time is short, to meet the needs of sustainable use.

Smart phones have great power consumption, and four processors running on the basis of complex applications will speed up power consumption. "The battery is still no breakthrough, most mononuclear cell phone is usually restricted to 1 ~ 2 day, if is four nuclear, if the battery problem is solved, so only half a day. Even if the processor mature, but the battery is still a global problem." The horizon research consultancy group senior telecom analyst CengTao said. And, now users buy mobile phone not only pay attention to performance, also pay more attention to appearance, frivolous become main melody. This creates conflict, manufacturers how to put greater capacity of the battery and more low energy consumption system into the fine thin body, this is a huge challenge.

SONY mobile department at MWC Stephen Sneeden during congress said it is not suitable for push four main factor lies in nuclear cell phone battery, "SONY in the next year in the cellphone won't before four processors. When we feel performance and efficiency of the cells, we will match to join the ranks of the four nuclear mobile phone. Because now we don't think this is the match."

A cool person told reporters that they may be in the second half of this year launched four nuclear mobile phone, "but before that, must will solve the problem of power."

Four nuclear too luxury?

PC processors have stepped into the nuclear age 16, but the overwhelming majority of users are still dual-core, because they feel dual-core computers have satisfied the demand of himself, of course, if 16 nuclear computer and dual-core computer as cheap that nature is another story. His computer is still dual-core, cell phone that four nuclear, what is it? Isn't it too luxury?

Luxury is on one hand on the selling price, CengTao estimates, four nuclear mobile phone price will not less than 3000 yuan, "for high-end brand of four nuclear mobile phone, price can be as much as four or." In addition to the class user, won't have too many customers to choose four nuclear mobile phone, especially in the smartphone has greatly reduced the threshold of today, even though these entry-level smartphone, now of the configuration has also upgraded substantially.

More extravagant point is that at present most intelligent mobile phone applications are still not make full use of the processor core bring function. Dual-core, and even mobile phones to meet people demand in single-core still and ease, four nuclear mobile phone and not so necessary to appear. "I don't know now what mobile phone applications need four nuclear to deal with, can't come up with it. Just like PC, now of people mainstream application does not need so high processor", CengTao said.

More than foreign industry comes to put forward, four nuclear cellular phone now seem to be some redundant. And Tegra3 launched four processors NVIDIA company responded that the Tegra 3 four processors only in application to call to start the four processor core. The rest of the time is a low power consumption of the kernel in operation. But this and bring another problem, if in the most time need only a kernel, why not stick mononuclear or dual-core processor?

"Nuclear war" another attempt to?

The processor, operating system, display screen, the program, battery... Mobile phone industry chain in all aspects, as long as one place there short board, will not give customers with better user experience, oneself also is to have a as.

CengTao said, now manufacturers in treating the four nuclear cell phone into two groups: the conservative and extremism. Conservatives such as Microsoft, SONY, they hope to relevant industrial chain can coordinated development, especially the battery this short board can get "extended", such as basic mature industry chain again after using four nuclear technology. Radical hope that through the four nuclear this quite can attract the attention of the public new technology as a killer, in global market competition to get the upper hand, and even take a risk for this. "But if mass to the market, because the battery standby problems by the consumers, this to the manufacturer for collective as is a risk."

These manufacturers launched four nuclear cell phone in addition factors, may be to counter strong apple. Apple iPhone success was not relying on top of the hardware configuration, but the hardware, the system, the software 3 person perfect together. But iPhone 4 S is already dual-core, so some cell phone manufacturers hope rob in the next generation of apple products before release, in hardware configuration and the gap between the open apple, and on the market in a larger slice of the cake.

Huawei expansion to expand the design team in high-end smartphone market

Huawei is expand the size of the design team, and hope in the fierce competition and growth in the rest of the global smart cellphone market to raise their status.

Huawei chief cell phone designer Hagen · Finn DE le (Hagen Fendler) said the company plans to release later this year in a series of high-end smartphone, in order to the field a bigger share of race. "We hope in the future five years as the three big intelligent mobile phone manufacturer. In order to achieve this, we must expand product line." He recently interviewed.

According to the market research firm Strategy Analytics data, huawei last year in the fourth quarter, global smartphone market share for 4%, make it become the global sixth largest intelligence cell phone manufacturers. Strategy Analytics executive director Neil's premier (Neil Mawston) said: "with the expansion of the channel and product line, its rankings are creeping up."

But want to challenge the first global ranking of apples, and samsung (the Po) and nokia (the Po) of old giant, huawei will still face great challenges. After three companies market share in the fourth quarter of last year were 23.9%, 23.5% and 12.6%.

Huawei's design team at present in China, the us, Japan and Europe has about 300 employees. Finn DE le says, huawei will increase employee, but did not give specific recruitment plan. "This is a very open, very international team, many foreign designers and local designers." Finn DE le said. He also added, huawei's in Sweden, Britain and Finland recruitment designers.

Focus on high-end smartphone market will become an important strategic huawei transformation. The company was originally a low-cost telecommunications equipment suppliers, later expanded to the terminal business areas, at first supply data card, and then to ODM (original design manufacturer) identity for mobile phone operators. Since last year, huawei began to promote their own brands mobile terminal, including smart cellphones and tablet computer. Huawei revenue in the first half of 2011 to 15.2 billion dollars.

Huawei mobile world congress in Barcelona last month (MWC) introduced a Ascend D Quad high-end smartphone, the Google Android operating system, equipped with 4.5 inch hd touch screen, with high speed processors, and has all the hd video shooting function. Finn DE le says, this phone is expected to be listed in the second half of this year.

But he declined to disclose this product pricing and specific time of issue. Generally speaking, in the pricing of high-end phones between $300 to $500, the low end of the mobile phone is about 100 to 200 dollars.

In August of 2010, before joining huawei, Finn DE le had been an international Design company VanBerlo Strategy + Design CEO, and led the Siemens (the Po) product concept department. "Attract me to join China so that we want to make change, directly to consumers, and make their own brand." He said, "the important change is for our company to realize high quality growth, which means that we must serve the different consumers, launched in high-end products."

For in China, in high-end smartphone into market is not easy. Samsung, LG and HTC and strong Asian rivals have established years of brand advantage, especially in the U.S. market, huawei would apple competition. Strategy Analytics data show that the apple last year global mobile phone shipments for 93 million department, a 2010 years to achieve double.

Apple is still trying to develop the Chinese market. "Now just foray into cellphone market five years, apple in 2012 is expected to more than 100 million, according to the ministry, China will be the apple of the key market this year." Strategy Analytics director Tom Kang (Tom Kang) said.

Finn DE le also admitted that want to challenge apple is not easy, but he says, huawei will devote oneself to to make the independent brand. He also revealed, huawei will continue and Google cooperation, the production Android mobile phones. "Design and brand is the most important to the consumer, all things to learn to apple." He said.
