My Age of Investment

   Chapter 1356 Bet on both sides and the five-sided camp

   Hearing this, everyone in the room, including Xia Jingxing, looked up at the big screen.

   "They also transformed?"

  Xia Jingxing looked at the familiar Logo on the screen, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

   With the entry of this giant, it means that the world of smartphone wars has finally arrived.

   also means that the time of lying and earning is gone forever.

   Lin Bing nodded lightly, "Yes, Samsung released the Galaxy i7500 last month, which is a smartphone with Android 2.0 system and a full touch screen, and it is also the first Android-based phone launched by Samsung after joining the Android Alliance.

   In terms of performance, it is very powerful. In addition to being equipped with a 5-megapixel autofocus camera that is 1.2 million pixels higher than that of the FX2S and iPhone3GS, the i7500 also uses an AMOLED material panel jointly developed by Samsung and Wanwan Qijing.

  The panel of this material is higher in contrast, color saturation and brightness than the TFT panel currently used by us and Wisdom Fruit.

   At the same time, the i7500 also supports built-in GPS module and supports GPS navigation, which is also one of its biggest selling points.

  Of course, the bigger selling point is the price. The i7500 is priced at 69.9 euros for a two-year contract machine in Germany and 300 euros for the bare metal.

  It is expected that it will enter the domestic market in the next few months and issue the national version. The bare metal price is estimated to be between RMB 3,000 and RMB 4,000. "

  Xia Jingxing said lightly: "The performance seems to be better than the FX2S and iPhone3GS, but the price is a little cheaper. You say, what is Samsung trying to do?"

   Zhou Guangping immediately answered: "Do you still need to think about it? It must be Li Jianxi who saw the sales of Fuxing mobile phones and smart fruit mobile phones.

  The new generation of smart phones is so popular that as long as it looks like a smart phone, there is no need to worry about selling it. The Meizu M8 is a typical example.

  Samsung's price is slightly lower than ours, but the brand and technology are not weaker than us, even stronger than us, and the SoC chips we use are still provided by them.

   They must do this to seize the market that originally belonged to us. Oh, yes, and Wisdom Fruit, they are also using Samsung chips. "

  Xia Jingxing glanced at Zhou Guangping and said, "Your analysis is correct, but it is not comprehensive enough."

   After saying that, Xia Jingxing glanced at Lin Bing again, "Tell me."

   Lin Bing nodded lightly towards Xia Jingxing and said, "Samsung is a giant, there is no doubt about that.

   But they have not fully embraced Android at present, and the i7500 launched is just a test of the water in my opinion.

   It is said that Samsung will release the i8000 next month, which is a smartphone based on the WindwosMobile6.5 system.

  Except that the operating system is different from that of the i7500, other software and hardware are at the same level as the i7500.

  Once the i7500 takes the lead and outperforms the i8000, Samsung may make up its mind to fully join the Android camp and launch the Android machine sea tactics at the same time.

   In addition, the i7500 looks more powerful than the Fuxing FX2 and iPhone3GS on the surface, but it also has many flaws.

The technical department bought a batch of i7500 from overseas a few days ago for testing, and found that the battery life of this phone is very average, the touch screen is not sensitive enough, the GPS and WiFi signals are all weak, the multimedia format support is too small, and the software is not running smoothly enough and many more.

   Considering this is Samsung's first Android phone, it's not bad to be able to do this.

   As long as Samsung exerts its own technical strength, these problems will be overcome one by one, and the new Android models launched will become more and more competitive. "

  Xia Jingxing nodded secretly, Lin Bing had a good understanding of Samsung, and the i7500 was indeed just a test product, which laid a solid foundation for the future launch of the famous Samsung Galaxy S, the Samsung i9000.

  Microsoft's mobile operating system is already a rabbit's tail - it can't grow anymore.

   As soon as Xia Jingxing underestimated Microsoft in his heart, Lin Bing came out and slapped him in the face.

  “In addition to Samsung betting on both sides, LG is also buying double insurance.

   Last year, the world's third-ranked mobile phone manufacturer launched the LGKS200 mobile phone based on the WM system. The price in the Chinese market was 3,980 yuan, but the sales feedback was not ideal, and the performance was directly crushed by the Fuxing FX2, which was launched in the same period.

   According to Lu Qi, LG found them and is going to develop a smartphone GW620 based on the Android 2.0 system. This phone will go on sale in the near future, and sales will determine LG's choice of operating system.

   Not only are foreign mobile phone manufacturers jumping repeatedly, but domestic mobile phone manufacturers are also standing in line on both sides.

  The N900 launched by Coolpad three months ago is equipped with the Windows CE6.0 intelligent operating system, compatible with WM6.0 and 6.5, and is mainly sold to business people.

   The Bluebelt and Silverbelt series smartphones jointly launched by ZTE and local telecom operators in Portugal are also equipped with the WM system.

  C8100 launched by Chrysanthemum Factory last month, Touch series, HD series, Diamond series launched by HTC in the past two years, ET series of Conscience Company, all are equipped with WM system. "

  Xia Jingxing listened quietly with a faint smile on his face.

   I have to say that Microsoft's brand is still very strong, and there are still a large number of manufacturers at home and abroad gathered under the WM system.

   Even though some mobile phone manufacturers have begun to flirt with Android, they are still reluctant to leave Microsoft as a good child, a scumbag!

   In the future, the China Cool Alliance, except for the conscience company that will not cooperate with Android, the other three are all wandering between the two major operating system camps.

   Like ZTE, Chrysanthemum Factory, and Coolpad are secretly developing Android smartphones these days.

Among them, the chrysanthemum factory has the highest efficiency. Ren Zhengfei quietly revealed to Xia Jingxing that the American telecom giant T-Mobile signed an order with the chrysanthemum factory and is secretly developing a carrier OEM machine codenamed U8220, which will be released before the end of this year. Appeared in North America.

   The reason why Ren Zhengfei was willing to explain to Xia Jingxing was that the Chrysanthemum Factory was still cooperating with Microsoft, which would affect the strategic partnership with Fuxing Industry.

  Chrysanthemum Factory's mobile phone department is currently doing this job, specializing in OEM for major operators around the world.

  Strictly speaking, the chrysanthemum factory has not yet begun to build its own brand, and it has a low sense of presence in front of individual consumers. Many people do not even know that there is such a mobile phone brand.

   ZTE's X850 and Coolpad's N930, although these two Android mobile phones have been approved, their research and development is slow, and most of them can't keep up with the excitement of the mobile phone market this year.

   There is also a Motorola, which released the A3100 mobile phone based on the WM6.1 system at the beginning of the year, while secretly developing the Android 2.0-based smartphone mb200.

  The **** HTC of the WM system was the pioneer of the Android system and the first Android manufacturer in the previous life. In this life, it has gone to the dark with Microsoft by accident.

  Xia Jingxing doesn't care about what HTC will do in the future. As long as Android continues to improve the system and ecology, he doesn't have to worry about having no partners.

   At present, the smartphone operating system is still in the melee stage.

   Mobile phone manufacturers in the United States, Japan, South Korea and even in China are making mobile phones with Android and WM systems.

   In general, everyone is more inclined to trust Microsoft, which has deep roots and a louder brand.

   This can be seen from the fact that major mobile phone manufacturers took the lead in developing and launching WM system mobile phones.

  Nokia clings to the Symbian system, which has been completely privatized by it, and BlackBerry is very confident in its own company's BlackberryOS system.

   Looking at the world, there are only five mainstream smartphone operating systems.

  Nokia, Blackberry and Wisdom Fruit are equipped with exclusive systems, which are only used by their own mobile phone brands, not open source, and not external cooperation.

  Microsoft and Android have a certain spirit of sharing, or choose a different development strategy, open source to the outside world, and recruit mobile phone manufacturers to help promote their systems and build an ecosystem.

   In terms of market share, Microsoft currently occupies a leading position, and the tiger's skin has not been pierced.

   In addition, Nokia and BlackBerry have seen the new trend of smartphones in recent years, and have also launched several smart phones, but in Xia Jingxing's view, the transformation is not complete, and they can only be called semi-smart phones.

For example, the Nokia N97 and N900, which have been launched in succession in the past six months, have used resistive touch screens, and also have new functions such as gravity sensing and light sensing, and their sales are still very good. The classic design "slider".

  The N86 released at the beginning of the year is a historical reversal compared to the N97, and does not support touch screens.

  In this era of the transition between old and new technologies, Nokia seems to be hesitant and slow, as can be seen from the models it has launched.

  Xia Jingxing didn't pay much attention to the aging giant Nokia, and when he saw that he had embarked on the path of his previous life, he paid more attention to Wisdom Fruit and Samsung.

   In addition, according to Lu Qi’s feedback, Google is still engaged in research and development in Silicon Valley, and it seems that it has not given up on the idea of ​​entering the smartphone operating system.

   After going through the competitors of various operating systems and the current pattern of the mobile phone market in his mind, Xia Jingxing gradually had an idea in his mind.

   He interrupted Lin Bing and said, "Nokia and BlackBerry will definitely go to the black, don't worry about them, let them self-destruct.

  Conscience Company and HTC are also arrogant to oppose us. They will not cooperate with Android, and Android does not look down on them.

  Not to mention Wisdom Fruit, their confidence and brand have gradually recovered, and they will definitely be a formidable enemy of the revival mobile phone in the future.

  And Samsung, sooner or later, will become our enemy, the leader of the Android camp, mostly on us and them.

   These domestic mobile phone manufacturers are not yet in the future. If we can successfully secure the top spot in the country in the future, their market share will inevitably be squeezed.

   Pay more attention to Samsung, we will probably have a tough battle in the future. "
