MWC Shanghai 2024, which just opened yesterday, I don't know if you have paid attention to it.
It's good, I guess I didn't pay attention.
But it doesn't matter, although this conference Huawei, Xiaomi, ZTE, Weilai, these manufacturers are here, but today's protagonists are not actually these big hot door manufacturers, but the glory of the past that has no "sense of existence".
Zhao Ming, CEO of Honor, said in an interview with the media that Honor is ahead of Apple in the field of device-side AI as a whole, and Apple's AI strategy follows Honor's four-layer AI strategic architecture.
Hey, wait, although Glory has been stripped from Huawei for almost 4 years, to this day, many people who eat melons see Yaozi, and their first reaction is: "Isn't this Huawei's ......"
And a lot of Honor's market share does come from the low-end market that Huawei has no time to take care of.
Everyone still thinks you are Huawei's little brother, and you suddenly say that you are the one who is "far ahead" and beats the fruit......
Reminiscent of Huawei's recent frequent actions, first the domestic market share returned to the first place in the first quarter, and then the "pure-blooded Hongmeng" was officially released.
Anyway, many netizens attributed Honor's recent "confident speech" to Huawei's powerful return, and they have commented sharply:
"Glory, I'm in a hurry."
Glory "far ahead"?
We don't know if it's really urgent, but Glory's shipments are really high.
In the first quarter of this year, Honor's market share increased by 13.2% year-on-year, which is the only positive growth in China except for Huawei.
And recently, Glory has really acted frequently, in the first half of the month, Honor sent its first small folding mobile phoneMagic V Flip, the biggest highlight is the large outer screen.
Although the folding machine product lines of various factories are shrinking this year, like in the first half of the year, only vivo has completed the iteration of large folding, and has released vivo X Fold 3; Huawei iterates the Pocket series......
But there is a head iron, "I am optimistic about you singing down", Xiaomi and Glory have all entered the game this year. We all know that the later you enter the game in the machine circle, the bigger the life will be, otherwise you don't have anything new, why should people buy you?
Anyway, the glory pressed the treasure on the big outer screen-
What is the concept?,That is, in addition to the hole-digging camera,Glory small folding has 4 inches of display area。 (A hot knowledge: iPhone5 screen is 4 inches)
And Honor has also put a lot of effort into the interaction of the external screen: it is said that it has supported the external screen operation of more than 40 applications, and it will be expanded to 100+ in the future.
The dark horse probably glanced at the product idea of the glory small folding,To put it simply,Glory just wants to make the outer screen the main screen,Try to let everyone open the inner screen as little as possible,"Open the inner screen is a traditional mobile phone,When you close it, it is the ideal small fold,In order to release more imagination space。 ”
Well, I don't evaluate this concept, but at least this big outer screen dark horse is recognized.
Another interesting new product is yesterday's MWC, Zhao Ming's official announcement of the big folding glory Magic V3.
Glory's folding machine has a feature, super thin, before Samsung's folding was 13mm, Huawei got 11mm, as a result, last year's V2 was only 9.9mm thick after folding, it is said that it is the first time that the folding machine has entered the millimeter era.
The V3 is said to surpass the V2 in thickness, that is, less than 9.9mm, and Zhao Ming also said that the phone will be equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Gen3 processor, support for satellite calls, a large 66W fast-charging battery, and support for 5.5G networks.
Today, some digital bloggers disclosed more detailed information and took out spy photos:
It is said that the V3 is also the only folding screen phone that implements satellite communication function after the Huawei Mate X5......
Ah, this similar R&D direction and innovative ideas, the dark horse couldn't help but hum: Ah ~ Mom and Dad...... (Smack!) Cover your face .jpg)
But in fact, judging from the currently exposed product configuration, Honor is really quite decent, if there is really anything amazing, it is still almost.
And take a look at the small fold of the Glory to catch the late train, compared with the 8 Gen3 small fold that Xiaomi has not yet released, there is actually a big gap.
So where is the glory ahead?
端侧AI?MagicOS!
According to Zhao Ming, CEO of Honor, Honor's strongest should be device-side AI.
Well, there should be some friends who don't know what device-side AI is, it's very simple, it's actually relative to cloud-side AI, based on the local AI model of mobile phones and other terminals.
To put it more simply, it is to put the AI model on the device, similar to Apple, where your data is on the device.
Generally speaking, it is safer to put AI on the device than in the cloud, but Dark Horse thinks that the better point is that the device-side AI belongs only to the user, and you can create your own personal butler after a long time of "tuning".
Compared with cloud-side shared AI, device-side AI is definitely much more comfortable in perception.
In fact, the "AI defocus eye protection technology" that Zhao Ming said, the dark horse is a little suspicious (if you are curious, you can search for keywords)
But in fact, Glory's end-side AI, in the current operating system, that is, MagicOS, we can perceive it, and MagicOS, to be honest, the dark horse really thinks it's quite fragrant.
Didn't the dark horse make a horizontal review of the operating system yesterday (Portal: Domestic system melee),I didn't play with glory at the time,But in fact, the dark horse has also used the glory machine for a period of time this year.,Don't say it's really good in terms of humanized perception.。
First of all, the most memorable thing about the dark horse is the "Any Door", which was plagiarized by Lao Luo Hammer "One step" function, you can directly press and hold the screen to drag and drag including, text, pictures, videos and other content to the specified application, different content triggers the optional application is different, basically covering all commonly used applications.
For example, text content, the sidebar may be WeChat, documents, schedules and other applications with a lot of text information, if you press and hold on the picture, there will be Taobao Pinduoduo This kind of content with more picture information will appear.
So in fact, "any door" at least has certain requirements for AI screen recognition ability.
In addition, functions such as breath recall can directly use the voice assistant, which actually eliminates the counter-intuitive step of calling words.
There is also gallery search, although many manufacturers now have this function, but after the dark horse experience, the search accuracy of glory is very online.
In fact, you have to say that Honor has made any breakthroughs in AI technology, and the current perception of the dark horse may not be deep enough, but in terms of AI "empowering people" and serving human beings, Honor has indeed done a good job.
In recent years, the shadow of Huawei on Honor mobile phones is also decreasing, and now there are basically no Huawei applications, although some operating logic still has a "Chinese flavor", but the optimization of Honor can also be seen in many places:
For example, the switch between the message bar and the control center,Huawei's trigger area is at the top of the screen,Honor has made a full-screen adaptation,After the pull-down operation,The trigger area is obviously more intuitive at the bottom of the screen。
Dark Horse recognizes a sentence: any technology should be based on consumers. Because only "people" are the measure of all things, and they are also the benchmark of all technologies.
But are you going to say that the glory is "far ahead"? Dark Horse thinks that it must not be yet, if you have to say how many years ahead of Apple......
Dark Horse: I wish him success.
