As we all know, because Huawei Kirin chip cannot be freely shipped, Huawei , which once occupied an important position in the mobile phone market in the global market, has suffered a severe decline in its mobile phone business. Although Huawei has not been completely devastated, from a market revenue perspective, Huawei has still lost a large part of its revenue sources.
However, during this period, Huawei ushered in a new action to increase its profits. It is reported that Huawei has announced that it has signed a global cross-license agreement including 5G with mobile phone manufacturer OPPO. At the same time, Huawei also reached a patent licensing agreement with Samsung . This means that Huawei has taken a key step in collecting 5G patent fees. After all, OPPO and Samsung rank in the top three in the global shipment rankings.
It is worth noting that OPPO has publicly stated that it is estimated that 350 million 5G mobile phones will be licensed by Huawei this year. Obviously, Huawei has had a "good start" in terms of charging in this area. With shipments like Samsung and OPPO, Huawei's 5G licensing patent fees will only be higher in the future.
Personally, I think that after such a good start, Huawei may once again occupy half of the world by relying on another way of existence.
First of all, Huawei has reached a license with Samsung and OPPO. Judging from the global 5G mobile phone shipments of Samsung and OPPO, it is equivalent to saying that more than half of the world's 5G mobile phones have paid relevant patent fees to Huawei. Based on the global mobile phone market, is also a situation where Huawei may occupy half of the market. Of course, cross-patent patents must be taken into account, so Samsung and OPPO’s shipments alone cannot achieve this phenomenon immediately.
Secondly, according to data, the top seven smartphone brands in global shipments in 2022 are Samsung, Apple , OPPO, Xiaomi and other mobile phones. Both Samsung and OPPO have begun cooperation with Huawei on relevant patent agreements, not to mention other mobile phone brands. In a sense, it is normal to win the top-ranked mobile phone brand and cause a good chain reaction in the future. Then it will be easy to use this to occupy "half of the country".
The most critical thing is that Huawei has a high proportion of 5G patents, and mobile phone chips involved in related 5G fields have no way to bypass Huawei's 5G patents. has laid a solid foundation for Huawei's 5G patent occupation. As long as Huawei starts collecting patent fees, it is reasonable to implement a better situation in the future.
However, we still need to be clear that the smartphone market is currently in a weak cycle. According to forecast data, the total shipment volume of this year is close to 1 billion units, which is still far behind the 1.3 billion units of the previous year. Obviously, it is not easy to carry out 5G authorized patents in a weak cycle. After all, it is too easy to involve the conflicting issue of high and low patent fees. However, judging from previous data, the patent fees charged by Huawei are not very high. In addition, Huawei also has overlapping patents with other manufacturers. Therefore, Huawei successfully carried out this action and accounted for the majority.
Finally, the editor would like to say that Huawei should indeed collect patent fees long ago. On the one hand, it can increase its own income, and on the other hand, it can also establish its 5G market position. The most important thing is that other companies cannot let other companies think that we are easy to bully, and they can use patents without paying patent fees.
