Slowing smartphone hardware innovations

Whether referred to above fall just released a new smart phone , or previous flagship model, which is not difficult to find that most of these products are selling without multicore , three defense, long standby , large screen, ultra-thin fuselage and other hardware parameters of the competition . In fact, from about the second generation , third generation of thousands of intelligent machines start when hot sales , the majority of mobile phone manufacturers sank into a hardware prepare for war . Insiders expressed concern , "is more serious is that the war fought more than two years , the manufacturers are still difficult to withdraw from , to find the true meaning of product innovation ."
As we all know , competition in the market , there is a demand there will be supply android 4.2 phone manufacturers have the hardware parameters as the new smart phones publicity stunt , in fact, with the user's consumption demand a great relationship. Most consumers from the PC era to form a " purchase look at the configuration ," the habit , and now to buy smart phones , the hardware configuration is also considered an important factor in the consumer , even in some of the user 's eyes, " hardware is benevolent . " In order to meet this demand of users , in the fierce market competition foothold , manufacturers will better CPU core number , the greater the larger the screen size , the higher the better camera pixels , the thinner the better body such as selling point not difficult to understand , what is more, will be able to break the record as a goal igogo
Competition is blind hardware product market fierce competition , but also reflects the mobile phone manufacturers are currently struggling in the hardware innovation situation . Citigroup recently released analysis report pointed out that the smart phone market , manufacturers are increasingly low hardware innovation - " original equipment manufacturer doing all of innovation for mobile phones adds some innovative features called : gesture control , eye flip and screen mirroring , etc. These features may seem somewhat new, but the manufacturer has revealed behind their wits . "
Focus of competition or extended to external devices
Smart phones are facing the plight of hardware innovations weak , then the next new tipping point will be what is it ?
Tide in the smartphone off photos of the occasion, Sony's camera had a new revolution in IFA2013 Congress released two phones external lens QX10 and QX100, and beyond smart phones become accidentally highlight of the show , there are micro -blog users said, " September release of new mobile phones , the most common cold is Sony's external lens ."

Not only is the external lens and smart watches , as well as glasses, bracelets android 4.1 phones wristbands , belts, clothes, shoes and so on. Yes, as long as you can think of can be worn on the body of each object , are likely to become wearable computing devices igogo
The emergence of these products and get attention , are reminding us that in the large screen, high degree of openness of the operating system have become the mainstream of development , the smart phone hardware itself is undoubtedly slowed the speed of evolution , the next point of competition is likely to surpass the smart phone itself , at least on the hardware extension out.
