Apple stirred the terminal market again. According to media reports, two news from the Apple iPad foundry's peripheral accessories processing plant recently revealed that the iPad2 is about to ship, and the initial shipment volume has reached 400,000-600,000 units. At the same time, news came from the 3G version of the iPad. It is understood that insiders of China Unicom revealed that the basic business negotiation has already ended earlier this year. This round of negotiations started this month is mainly to finalize the price and sales strategy, which basically belongs to the last round of negotiations. Whether it is overseas markets or domestic markets, whether it is domestic manufacturers or foreign manufacturers, once again facing the enemy, the battle in the end market besieged Apple continues to be staged.
The iPad has once again stirred up the end market and the generation of iPads has not yet subsided in the market. Since its launch, the iPad has been the focus of the market. Apple fans are petting, manufacturers follow suit to follow suit, and a market battle for Apple is staged in the market...
The impact of the iPad has spread across all areas. The terminal market took the lead. Since the introduction of the iPad, Motorola, Samsung and other manufacturers have introduced tablet computers. For a time, the tablet computer has become another focus of the mobile Internet era following smartphones; in the smart phone market, the iPad is also an electronic book reader. The encroachment on the Amazon Kindle 3 market, which specializes in e-books, makes the entire e-book market even more uneasy. In the consumer market, the iPad is like a bomb. It has caused numerous waves, and the market is in short supply and will always be out of stock. Counting Apple fans are waiting hard; the lack of genuine, but also let the cottage market took the opportunity to fish in troubled water, so, many parallel iPad emerged overnight; parts market is not calm, some experts said, iPad or will substantially increase the market The demand for touch screens and memory chips and other spare parts, if Apple can create a new product category, and like other previously revolutionary products to lead competitors to follow suit, this demand will be even more vigorous. No wonder some people say that if the impact of a new product can be measured by the breadth and depth of the impact it has on the global electronic value chain, then the Apple iPad is undoubtedly one of the most important products in the development of the technology industry. It actually affects many areas of the communications market.
Today, the enthusiasm for the Wifi version of the iPad market has not yet passed, and the pace of the 3G version of the iPad is quietly approaching. It is reported that the 3G version of iPad has just passed China's 3C certification, model A 1219, certificate number. From the entry into the domestic market, only the 3G version of the iPad, which is only inferior to the certification of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, will stir up disputes in the market, which makes people think twice. The news of the second-generation iPad is even more concerned. According to media reports, Apple's iPad 2 order quantity issued to the foundry reached 6 million units per month, which is higher than the 4 million per month order of the existing iPad. This also means that Apple's market demand for iPad 2 is expected to be higher. The iPad seems destined to be the focus of the terminal market.
The public companies have joined the siege war whether it is 3G iPad or Wifi iPad, whether it is the market has stirred up a generation of iPad or the unveiled second-generation iPad, for computer manufacturers, are Apple toss The blockbuster to the market. Apple's success in the market has caused many IT giants to sit on their hands and throw their hands to deal with each other.
Apple’s financial report in the third quarter shows that as of September 30 this year, about 7.5 million iPad tablets have been sold. American investment bank PiperJaffray analyst Jean? Munster expects that in the fourth quarter, Pad's sales will exceed 5.5 million units, and bring more than 3.5 billion US dollars in revenue for Apple, including mid-December holiday shopping season will appear in the sales blowout.
Apple's performance is undoubtedly a huge temptation for all manufacturers. It is better to fight harder than sit back and wait. So, Lenovo, Samsung, Macro? And other manufacturers have made efforts to tablet computer market. It is reported that the global sales volume of the Samsung Tablet PC Galaxytab using the Android operating system has exceeded 1 million units. The sales volume of the Samsung Galaxytab, which is listed on the Korean market, is even far higher than the iPad. At present, it has also sold more than 100,000 units. Lenovo Group, a “model student†of domestic computers, also revealed that the group will soon launch “LePad†tablet PCs in the Chinese market and officially join the “iPad-like†product line. In addition, the macro? PC giants such as Dell, Toshiba, and Hewlett-Packard also announced their own tablet plans. As for the many XPads in the cottage market, it is even more dazzling. In the domestic market, Hida, ePad, AiPad, iiPad, iPed and other cottage products are varied. Of course, many of these products have undergone certain innovations in terms of details. For example, many products have increased USB interfaces and support large-capacity U-disks.
Apple will never have loneliness when it comes to where the apple can rest. Taking the domestic market as an example, the introduction of the iPhone and iPad has already made the domestic market a mess. Apple's every move not only makes numerous Apple fans crazy, but also affects the hearts of major manufacturers, and even the major operators have also launched fierce competition.
Apple iPhone set off the market, allowing other mobile phone manufacturers to attack each other, Nokia, Motorola, Lenovo, Samsung, Huawei have launched new products, equipped with Android, Saipan and other systems of smart phones have been listed, high-end market shine, the mid-market to force, low End-market penetration, all products line up. The listing of the iPad also set off the same wave in the tablet PC market. It is undeniable that, to a certain extent, the introduction of Apple products has, to a certain extent, promoted the research and development of new products in the terminal market, boosted the development of the entire market, and improved the 3G terminal industry chain.
But the problem is also precisely here, sorting out the turmoil in the market, we can easily see that the development of the terminal market is always followed a similar path and the same story is being played. In short, it is Apple's lead and the group is starting to rise. "Challenge Apple", "Besieging Apple" and "Encouraging Apple" sound endless, and there are indeed many manufacturers that have introduced products with a certain influence. XPhone and XPad are emerging in an endless stream, but no matter the product name or performance, even Is the product of the market development, it seems that can not get rid of the shadow of Apple. Apple was suddenly taken to the altar.
The key to Apple’s success is constant innovation and progress. However, in the face of the iPad and iPhone's strong struck, the industry's most coping style is to follow suit, the surface of the tablet PC market and smartphones are fighting together, but in reality there is virtually no product that can compete with the iPad. The entire market has fallen into a dilemma, which is not only unfavorable to the development of the manufacturers themselves, but also not conducive to the advancement of the entire industry. Therefore, it is imperative to seek innovation and break the monopoly.
