Xiaoxin Pad Plus has an 11-inch LCD 2K (2000 x 1200) screen, a balanced screen border, an 8MP front camera that supports face unlock because the device does not have a fingerprint sensor. On the back is a 13MP camera with LED flash. The appearance of the machine is also quite simple, the frame is made of plastic, but it can be said that it is not cheap. The device is equipped with Snapdragon 750G processor, comes with 6GB RAM and 128GB ROM. The battery inside has a capacity of 7700mAh, supports Quick Charge 3.0 via Type-C 3.1 port and has a side magnet for charging when using the device in landscape mode. This is also the place to connect to the removable keyboard accessory. Xiaoxin Pad Plus has four JBL 1.5W speakers and Dolby Atmos for surround sound. It also has dual-band Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 5.1 but does not support 5G because there is no SIM slot. The price of the device is only half that of the similarly configured Galaxy Tab S7 FE, specifically $312 compared to the competitor’s $795. But Samsung’s product also has the advantage of a much larger battery, comes with a stylus, but loses because it only has 4GB of RAM and 64GB of ROM. You need to buy separate accessories for Xiaoxin Pad Plus, like a stylus for $47 and a keyboard for $73. In the future, there will also be a removable touchpad and an integrated stand with a hinge that raises the angle from 0° to 165°. According to Gizmochina

Specifically, Samsung – the “heavyweight” name of the mobile world – announced that it will not display in person, but only “attend remotely” to ensure the safety and health of customers and employees. Regretting the decision this year, a spokesman for the Korean electronics company also expressed hope to be able to attend the event in person in 2022. Similarly, a Lenovo spokesman said that the Chinese electronics company also chose to “virtual attendance” and confirmed that it had informed the GSM Association (GSMA) – the organizer of MWC – about this decision. Earlier, Google also announced that it would not attend MWC 2021, while Nokia, Ericsson, Sony, Oracle will all be absent from all conference events and not exhibiting in person because of “the ongoing effects of Covid- 19 and concern for people and their health”. With an organization cost of nearly half a billion USD (estimated in 2020), providing more than 14,100 temporary jobs, MWC has always been the focus of annual activities of the world telecommunications and mobile device industry. The event organized by GSMA in Barcelona (Spain) is an important occasion for manufacturers to seek cooperation opportunities and announce new products. Through MWC, the media as well as consumers easily grasp the development trend of mobile technology, telecommunications infrastructure… and many other useful information. Until now, through strict epidemic control measures such as the requirement to present a negative certificate for SARS-CoV-2 virus or mandatory testing every 72 hours, GSMA still hopes to be able to keep on schedule. organize MWC 2021 in the form of live from June 28 to July 1. However, experts are concerned that this desire may fail again in a similar way to 2020, in the context that a series of leading manufacturers have confirmed that they will not participate directly in the face of the Covid-19 epidemic situation. 19 complicated developments and the global Covid-19 vaccination still faced many difficulties.

Businesses have difficulty when the Indian government suspends the license to import Wi-Fi devices According to Reuters sources, India delayed the approval of imports of Wi-Fi modules from China for several months. These include complete electronics like Bluetooth speakers, wireless headphones, smartphones, smartwatches, laptops, all of which contain a Wi-Fi module. The Wireless Planning and Coordination Agency (WPC) under the Ministry of Communications of India has suspended the license since November 2020. More than 80 applications from US, Chinese and Korean businesses are waiting. Even records from some domestic companies have the same fate. Tough stance on Chinese imports comes amid Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi calling for stronger economic self-sufficiency. His policies have helped spur the assembly of smartphones in the country. Reuters sources believe that the latest move by the government to persuade companies to allocate more electronics production in India. However, technology businesses are faced with a difficult situation: production in India requires a large amount of capital and has to wait a long time to be profitable. On the other hand, the government has imposed import barriers that put them at risk of huge losses. In the past, India allowed companies to self-declare wireless equipment, making it easier to import. However, the invitation rule in March 2019 requires them to seek government permission. Although India is already the world’s second-largest mobile phone maker, analysts and technology experts say the country is not of enough scale or scale for big companies to invest. into manufacturing IT products and smart wearables. Watch out for Chinese technology The delay in WPC licensing also represents a strategy to reduce China’s influence on India’s technology industry, especially following last year’s border clash. This week, Modi’s government removed Huawei from the list of companies tested for 5G, while competitors from Europe and South Korea were allowed. Once 5G starts rolling out here, New Delhi is likely to ban carriers from using Huawei equipment. In 2020, US businesses such as Apple, Cisco and Dell will also be stuck in Sino-Indian tensions when Indian ports “detain” imports from China. At the end of 2020, India tightens papers proving the quality of Chinese goods, slowing down the process of importing iPhones. Currently, once they have obtained the proof of quality, they are stuck at another gate, which is the WPC. Du Lam (Reuters)

Lenovo’s Legion 2 Pro lineup is also known as Savior 2 Pro, a literal “savior” phone for this smartphone maker. Attracting attention thanks to its unique design with 2 6-sided curved glass, Iori key, 2 fans on the back and the camera “indent”, Legion 2 Pro aims to the gaming experience of users. However, shortly after the first product press conference on April 8, a number of videos of the Legion 2 Pro experience published to test the durability of this gaming smartphone brought a feeling of disappointment for many. people. Not only is the design too fragile, easy to fold when there is strong impact force, can be broken with your bare hands, the fingerprint module under the screen of the Legion 2 Pro is also considered to be quite unusual. In addition, the phone screen is also easy to scratch with only level 6 Mohs (hardness), making public concerns about the durability of the product. Business by “thinking” Lenovo has been passively following the trends of the consumer market and has been a bit immature in this area for a long time. In 2002, Lenovo acquired a 60% stake in Xoceco’s smartphone business and announced its official entry into the mobile phone market. Compared with other brands, Lenovo entered the phone market by way of “acquisition” without much practical experience. In 2008, a wrong decision to sell Lenovo Mobile to some private equity funds led by Hony and Hony Capital for $ 100 million, at this point, smartphones started to grow rapidly. In 2009, Lenovo Corporation spent $ 200 million to buy Lenovo Mobile from Hony, after the merger, the two have completely different operating systems. This also shows that the power of Lenovo PC does not show the strength of Lenovo Mobile. Until this year, at the shareholders’ meeting in mid-April, Lenovo Executive Vice President and Chairman Liu Jun just started the “Dragon Tiger Plan, which emphasizes development of the computer segment. As for mobile phones, Lenovo focuses only on two groups of customers: business people and gamers. The Legion 2 Pro is easily broken with bare hands Where is the outlet for Lenovo mobile phones? Since entering the mobile phone industry, the rigid imposition of a computer business mindset has left Lenovo at a disadvantage in its marketing and operations strategy. Due to being too reliant on carrier sales channels, under the siege of quality brands, Lenovo’s carrier bubble has also gradually dried up. Even the acquisition of Motolora did not help Lenovo enter the high-end phone market, making the R&D process constantly restructuring and the brand’s market promotion so far is one of the challenges. not small. From a mobile phone perspective, Lenovo’s pace of innovation on the human side is not keeping up with the pace of market development. Finding a foothold will not be able to exit if Lenovo continues to maintain the old “growth concept” and business mindset as before. Of course, a recent move aimed at customers in the mid-range segment, to compete with some other phone models with lower prices may be a reasonable choice at this time. But even with the “savior” phone model, the Legion 2 Pro, there are still disadvantages as mentioned, it is not clear whether this product can satisfy the tastes of the user or not. exit for Lenovo thanks to the smartphone gaming business is still too difficult to answer …

Illustration. Although this impressive growth rate is partly due to the already bleak first-quarter sales of 2020, there is no denying the positive signal of the technology market in recent months. With 82.7 million units delivered to consumers, this is the highest sales volume in the first quarter of the year since 2012. The main driver of growth in the personal computer market has been on the back of small businesses rebounding after a tough pandemic year, with the emphasis on laptops. According to records, sales of this model reached 67.8 million units in the first quarter of 2021, up to 79% over the same period last year. For its part, the desktop computer business also prospered after a bleak year, but has yet to come out of the decline. A total of 14.8 million desktops were sold in the first three months of 2021, down 5% from the same period in 2020. The strong market recovery in the first quarter of 2021 indirectly helped five manufacturers Export leader (accounting for 78% of total market volume) achieved double-digit growth. Specifically, Lenovo – the market leader with 25% market share – sold 20.4 million units in the last quarter, up 61% over the same period in 2020. For its part, HP – thanks to a boom in sales. Chromebook line (cheap computers using Google operating system) – “came in second” in the first quarter of the year with 19.2 million units sold (up 64% over the same period in 2020). In third place is Dell, with modest growth compared to the two competitors, only 23% (equivalent to 12.9 million units sold). This contributes to the US computer company’s market share continued to decline, currently only 15.7% – much lower than the 19.6% recorded after the first quarter of 2020. The other two names in the top five selling PC makers were Apple and Acer, with 6.6 million and 5.7 million units sold, respectively. However, these are the brands with the best growth in the first quarter of 2021 compared to the same period last year, respectively 105.2% and 82.1%. Forecasts about the market outlook for the whole year 2021, the analysts are optimistic in the context that businesses and organizations start to regain investment in technology infrastructure. However, the supply shortage will still slow the growth of the computer market, leaving many opportunities wasted. In that context, experts urged governments to soon increase investment to support the production of semiconductor components, in order to soon remove these bottlenecks.

On April 13, Lenovo Group held an online oath meeting for the fiscal year 2021/22. Lenovo Group Chairman and CEO Yang Yuanqing said that the total turnover in the first three quarters of the 20/21 fiscal year increased by 12% year-on-year, and the pre-tax profit increased by 48%, which is expected to reach a new milestone in the full fiscal year.

“Last year, due to the epidemic and other uncertainties, we froze salaries and promotions. In the new fiscal year, we should be promoted, and the salary should be increased.” Yang Yuanqing said. He also mentioned that he will work hard to realize the “rediscovery” and “revaluation” of Lenovo in the capital market.

In January this year, Lenovo announced that it would issue China Depository Receipts (CDR) and apply for CDR listing and trading on the Shanghai Stock Exchange Science and Technology Innovation Board, and enter the listing guidance period at the end of the month. Yang Yuanqing said that this will not only enhance the diversified optimization of the company’s capital structure, but also give small partners the opportunity to participate and further benefit from the company’s development.

Regarding the development trend of the post-epidemic era, Yang Yuanqing believes that the information industry is currently facing three major upgrades. One is the upgrading of information consumption. In the new normal of remote work, online learning, and home entertainment, everyone will have more smart devices and spend more time on them, and device replacement and upgrades will be more frequent. The mature market is the transition from “one family, one computer” or tablet to “one person, one computer”. In emerging markets, it is a transition from “one person, one mobile phone” to “one person, one mobile phone and computer or tablet”.

Yang Yuanqing said that Lenovo will continue to work on the expansion from computer to computing, so that more “dumb terminals” in the past will become smart, and will provide solutions for smart collaboration, smart meetings, etc., combined with AR/VR technology to make remote collaboration change It’s more convenient and efficient.

The second trend is the upgrading of information infrastructure. In the past, customers purchased traditional IT infrastructure such as servers, storage, and networks, which were product-oriented. Today, customers buy computing power and solutions, which are application- and service-oriented. What they need is the design and construction of infrastructure , The service of the whole process of operation and maintenance.

Yang Yuanqing believes that Lenovo has a unique positioning in this field. The ISG Infrastructure Solutions Business Group can not only provide traditional data center products, but also private cloud and public cloud infrastructure, achieving full coverage from edge computing to cloud computing; It can not only reach SMEs directly, but also serve large-scale enterprise-level customers.

“Our path is a comprehensive solution, not only hardware product sales, but also three links: consulting, construction and implementation, and operation and maintenance services. In fact, this is exactly what we changed DCG to ISG infrastructure solution business. The main reason for the group.” Yang Yuanqing said.

The third trend is the application upgrade from digitization to intelligence. The core is artificial intelligence, based on the three major elements of data, computing power and algorithms. The data in the digital and intelligent era does not only come from smart devices, information systems and the Internet, but more from the Internet of Things equipment. Medical equipment, machine tools in workshops, turnstiles in airports and railway stations, etc., can all become Intelligent terminal for collecting industry data.

Yang Yuanqing said that simple storage and calculation can be done on the “end”, but more needs to be done on the cloud. To connect the “end” and the “cloud”, the “network” of high-speed transmission is indispensable. With the great development of 5G and the Internet of Things, if all terminal “end” data is sent to the cloud for calculation and then the results are returned, it will inevitably cause network traffic jams or delays. Therefore, a kind of between “end” and “cloud” The calculation between the “edge” margin calculations came into being.

Finally, algorithms are needed to learn the logic of existing processes and decision-making methods and provide reasoning, working with data and computing power at the same time to make smart solutions possible, such as smart manufacturing, smart education, smart retail, and so on. “This is the intelligent transformation, which is what we call the’new IT’. It can be said to be a perfect fit with the’new infrastructure’ pushed by the country.” Yang Yuanqing said.

It is understood that in order to grasp the above three trends, Lenovo has taken the initiative to reform and reorganize its structure. In February of this year, Lenovo announced a new organizational structure plan and established a new business group: Solution Service Business Group (SSG). After the establishment of this new business group, Lenovo’s core business will consist of three major business groups, including the Intelligent Device Business Group (IDG) focusing on the Internet of Things, the ISG Infrastructure Solutions Business Group (renamed from DCG) focusing on intelligent infrastructure, and SSG Group.

Yang Yuanqing also put forward goals for the new fiscal year. He hopes that the PCSD team in IDG will maintain industry-leading profitability, all customer categories will become global champions, and mobile business will maintain profitable growth; ISG will maintain double-digit year-on-year growth; SSG will create 5 beacon-effects , Reproducible vertical industry solutions, revenue growth has reached twice the company’s overall growth rate. In addition, China and international sales organizations support ISG and SSG to achieve more than 20% business growth together.

On April 13, Lenovo’s Hong Kong stocks continued to rise after the market opened. As of press time, they rose by more than 2%. The company’s share price has doubled since last year.
