The smartphone industry has developed very rapidly in the past two years. With the blessing of 5G technology, domestic and foreign manufacturers have also started to launch 5G mobile phones one after another, which has also brought a "second spring" to the already troubled mobile phone industry. The shipments of the company have begun to increase, and even the market ranking has ushered in many "shuffles" and changes.
Apple iPhone12 leads the "trend", Cook is still for his own Charger provided. The "leader" of this approach is Apple. The iPhone 12 mobile phone released last year became the first manufacturer in the industry not to include a charger. Although the included charger in the package is also included in the cost of purchasing a mobile phone, the price of the iPhone 12 has not decreased but has risen after the charger was cancelled, which still caused dissatisfaction among consumers.
Apple’s reputation is for environmental protection, but in fact, everyone understands the deeper meaning, which is to save costs. Eliminating the charger can save transportation costs and production costs. On the other hand, consumers also need to buy chargers by themselves, which increases the user's cost of use and also increases Apple's profits. So at the end of the day, Apple is still doing it for its own sake.
After Apple’s iPhone 12 made this move, international giants Samsung and Huawei began to sneer at it. First of all, Samsung said on overseas platforms that its mobile phone has a charger. Huawei also made it clear at the Mate40 conference that Yu Chengdong will always come with a charger. But the plot that followed must not have been expected by many people.That is the Samsung S21 series, only the standard version of the S21 comes with a charger, and the S21+ and S21Ultra only have a mobile phone and a data cable in the package.
After Apple and Samsung, Huawei has also made a decision.
Recently, Huawei officially announced that it will launch mobile phones without chargers. Its models include Mate40Pro, MateX2 and Nova8 series, etc., but the version without charger The price of the mobile phone will be 200 yuan lower, and this news has been officially confirmed by Huawei. That is to say, after Apple and Samsung implemented this policy, Huawei also began to "follow the trend", and Yu Chengdong also began to slap himself. Apple and Samsung have become the winners. After all, Huawei has also started this strategy. Presumably consumers have nothing to say about it.
For this situation, many people have also expressed their thoughts, that is, Huawei has suffered from difficulties, so there is a shortage of chargers, and they have to take this approach. Because the charger has a charging IC control chip, if this part of the chip cannot be produced, it is actually reasonable for Huawei to cancel the charger in the packaging.
But there are certain loopholes in this statement. Because there is a big gap between the control chip in the charger and the core processor in the mobile phone in terms of process requirements, the technical threshold is not high, and even many domestic supply chains can produce it. So as long as Huawei wants it, it is not difficult to supply the charger, and there is no need to cancel the charger for this.
Maybe Yu Chengdong is also forced to?
Therefore, I personally think that Huawei's current practice of canceling the charger may have its own hidden meaning. After all, companies such as Xiaomi, Meizu, and Samsung all indicated that they would no longer include a charger when the mobile phone was just released. Obviously, they did it at the beginning. Well planned. And Huawei made this decision half a year after the release of the mobile phone, so Yu Chengdong may have to "slap" himself.
What do you think?
