2000 block of 5S Apple is playing where

Apple last month iPhone trade-in activities in the city, at a lower price recovery of consumers do not have the old iPhone. Collected where are they? Latest Foxconn iPhone uniform recycling renovation and prepare for selling part of online and offline channels.

Sell refurbished machines are nothing new, surprising the refurbished iPhone prices: iPhone5S with a yearly subscription for only 2099, compared to 1199 iPhone5C.

5S and of just over 2000 pieces of just over 1000 pieces of 5C? This is Apple's refurbished machines? Unbelievable! Many netizens expressed doubts when she sees the news first, feel out consumers ' wallets is not shy of Apple impossible such a conscience. But careful study of Foxconn's argument, the fact that these channels of sales do not go Apple refurbished machines, after sales by Foxconn, equivalent of Foxconn's refurbishment and the sale of the machines as a third party, Apple just to provide the recycling machine. The so-called "official" actually refers to Foxconn, but because Foxconn is the iPhone factory, making refurbished quality so it is secure.

Official: iPhone market

Apple has been on its website sells refurbished models, but sales only mediocre. The reason, website renovation version and the price difference is usually only more than 10% new products, was not cheap at all. But the refurbished machines placed on the Foxconn has some second hand iPhone price system was completely broken, tantamount to a bombshell to potential consumers. A case study of 5S, this model for sale 1.5 years, in today's website cost about 4,000 yuan, its work, appearance, performance, and functionality are still regarded as high-end products. Although it is used, but the work is enough to kill An Zhuozhong port model. Most important is that it runs iOS system, hated Android, iOS and the cash-strapped consumer temptation is hard to resist. Similarly, 5C of just over 1000 Yuan in thousands machine market is the best, after all, what price range have hated Android platform, but also have to select the Android user. Refurbished used iPhone with the new machine after difference is enough to reassure people worry too much for second-hand goods. It can be said that once the iPhone launch doesn't worry about sales.

What do apples have in the abacus?

Although the refurbished iPhone isn't Apple sales, but Foxconn channel; but Apple recycle, iPhone factory refurbished sale, how can you say Apple permission marketing strategy. Why has always been high above the Apple would play cheap games? Recovered from refurbished machine pricing and price differences of view, Apple is basically not making any profit from it. Large inflows of cheap refurbished machine market, sales of the new iPhone is certainly had some impact. Since it does not make money, Apple?

IPhone screen models launched last year and picked up after most of the high-end smartphone market share, iPhone sales growth has been close to the end. Because of the overall smartphone market slowed, coupled with high saturation, Apple will have to find new sources of growth. In addition to the well known Apple Watch, another huge profit potential of the business is the App Store of Apple. App Store for Apple to $ 4.5 billion profit last year, half of that number will rise this year and next year will come close to overtaking. App Store has become one of Apple's most profitable business sectors. Moschino new iPad case

Wants to further expand its App Store revenue, Apple needs to expand sales of the iPhone. IPhone5C failed was dropped by Apple to launch a cheap model plan to expand market share, then on to how to get more consumers to use the expensive iPhone? Refurbished machine is the answer. Contracted by a third party refurbished machines can do low prices, you can greatly reduce the barriers to entry of the iOS platform, like iOS in the low-end customers spend a little money to buy good iPhone mobile phones. After they entered iOS ecosystem, and will bring greater benefit to the App Store. Cheap sell hardware, software to make money, is much like the style of emerging Internet companies? The most profitable enterprises in the world, so keep up with market changes the strategy changes are indeed commendable.

Android manufacturers do?

IPhone is very cheap, and hardest, of course, is the Android phone. Many consumers are sick of Android and iOS devices they have been waiting for cheaper. If a cheap refurbished iPhone to the market, already faces a slowdown of greater pressure on the Android phone. Price range of between 1000 and 2000 Yuan is a major source of profits currently Android ecosystem, the cake be iOS, Android manufacturer's life more difficult. Affected not only China's manufacturers, Apple launched similar programmes in low-income countries, these countries local brands as well as Samsung's global brand will have a big impact. In response to Apple's hit Android phone can only continue to price wars and configure race, at the expense of reduced profit margins further. In any case, Android manufacturers days will be even more difficult.

Cheap iPhone launch is a good thing for consumers. Love not only iPhone users will benefit, Android users will buy more cost-effective mobile phones because of the competition. Official channels would also make the second-hand phone market has become standardized, accelerate the development of this market. In short, our conscience move thumbs to Apple, I hope Apple more similar actions in the future to meet consumer demand. Moschino iPad 4 case

Supply chain Samsung more terrible than the phone it

Samsung mobile phones businesses now sit is a well known fact, but that does not mean that you can treat it lightly.

The fourth quarter of last year, Samsung's semiconductor business profit since the second quarter of 2011 for the first time beyond the Smartphone business, reached 2.7 trillion won, it is because the business reveals, Samsung's overall performance was not so bad. This year, the Samsung restore not only advantage of S6 and S6 Edge may cause rebound for its mobile phone business, its semiconductor business will also be further outbreaks.

• Cut to Qualcomm's three axes

Now in the first half, Samsung gave old partners Qualcomm altogether three knives, and knives are red like a high pass antitrust case last year. First knife, is Samsung's new flagship S6 and S6 Edge is no longer part of the market as before carry Gao Tongxiao Dragon processor, but all use a Samsung Home Exynos 7420. Seem is the Xiao long runs parallel to 810 overheating forced Samsung to abandon it, but in fact it is because Samsung has with 14nm FinFET technology in the forefront of the industry, while Qualcomm gave a pretext to Samsung.

Moreover, Samsung is not a misfortune, Exynos 7420 itself in performance as Xiao long beyond 810, and Samsung has been troubling baseband problems, also got on the Exynos 7420 integration in our hearts the truth, Samsung can no longer use Qualcomm. Flawless iPhone 6s plus case

For Qualcomm, Samsung flagship machine full of abandon, means not only that its chip business will lose a majority share, is even more critical, as most manufacturers of high-end influence the Android camp, Samsung's lead in abandoning, Qualcomm may also greatly weakened the competitive in the high-end market.

While the second knife is Samsung's own architecture processors come out soon. According to outside media reported, in last month released of latest version GNU compiled device in the, support ARM partners development of custom core list in the appeared has Samsung Exynos M1, and this not only means with Exynos M1 does exists, also description its has distance came out not far has, and according to industry usually volume prenatal 9-12 months of samples took goods period to is, so most late next year then Samsung of owned schema processor on May came out, even will will directly carrying in its next generation flagship S7 Shang.

According to known sources, Exynos M1 is compatible customized core ARMv8-A core, instead of ARM Cortex-A72, and supports 64-bit technology still 14nm, most high-frequency 2.3GHz, allegedly in GeekBeanch 3, M1 running single core GPA up to 2200, in contrast, Apple A8X scored 1787 points.

And third knife is on is is satire has, reportedly, Exynos M1 in the of "m" meaning refers to Mongoose (CAT Itachi), just for Qualcomm "Krait (krait)" of predators, but who are know it not just just--can even three knife so, Qualcomm also is had to because Samsung in process Shang of leading, and put himself of chip generation workers also handed Samsung, even also must as of shows good Samsung, to let which return to Qualcomm processor of camp has always been--not exaggerated of said, Qualcomm now even got some taste of the hardships.

• Not just SOC Samsung's semiconductor business as a whole are squeezing an opponent

Actually industry is such satire, Samsung last year four quarter semiconductor business of outbreak, is big degree Shang is for competition opponents iPhone 6 hot due to, and according to research institutions DRAMeXchange is expected to, Apple of mobile DRAM chip this year also will consumption 25% of global supply volume, this means with Samsung although phone business in fell, but semiconductor business Shang is can get enough of support, 22 offset zhixia, also than other phone manufacturers live of moist too more.

This is also why Samsung top products are encoded in a series of S6 reason--other than the increased competitiveness of mobile phone, can still rely on the endorsement of a flagship product, basket, capacity, yield performance and stability factors to show confidence. In addition, select Samsung usually like Apple have another reason, as Samsung industrial chain involved is huge, not just OEM chip, also can supply screens, Flash and so on.

And reportedly, Apple has decided suspended and Samsung of patent confrontation, this means with both will will ushered in a friendly of stage, first reflected of certainly is supply chain Shang of co-operation, so city accounted for rate Shang industry first of Samsung plus industry second of Apple, two home variable a Pro-, again plus supply chain of heavily in hand, undoubtedly will on including Qualcomm, and TSMC, and sharp, and Sony, and Toshiba, main components suppliers brings double threat. Flawless cases

• The more mature, more to raise supply chain

If the semiconductor business is not enough to make you feel how important supply chain, so recently a message may give you more specific feel, this is Dafa Sony camera sensor out of stock message.

According to the editor-in-Chief of the EE Sun Changxu revealed that Sony sensor will experience large stock, customers can meet the needs of 50% at the highest level, may even completely out of the top ten destination IMX214 the most serious. While the latter audience broader, millet 4, hammer in a domestic mobile phone, Huawei Mate 7, OPPO Find 7 international Nexus 6 on the Sensor is used.

And discontinued the main reason was that Samsung and Apple jointly occupy almost all of Sony's production capacity, led to other manufacturers and different models of Sensor are out of stock. And more has rumors said, this is Samsung deliberately Xia of a Council, it arranged has except Apple zhiwai of all capacity, is to let other manufacturers no goods available, and this effect actually is is big of, because it will will directly upset manufacturers of sales plans, however more important of is, just is sensor stock, may led to those has into library of material all into only will occupied inventory and cannot input production of stay material, eventually manufacturers wants to digest inventory on became is difficult, only 1.1 points mill--even not exaggerated of said, Some companies this year plan, possibly because such a thing all dashed.

Actually supply chain Shang of crisis, most manufacturers are absolute encountered had, bloody of example also many, and to know, even is Apple such of top manufacturers, also faced with Apple Watch of stock embarrassing, more alone other people has, and supply chain of problem usually is in and time, and consumers of patience race, may accidentally, on will became was strangled of key--from this is for, supply chain will can foreseen of became manufacturers next increased competition of link.

Smartphone boom began in hardware race, and now able to open bottlenecks and determine the winner, remains the leading technology, or even present a little bit of lead may be rivals reach, Samsung on the front both sides has given us a very good example-and those who want to go beyond manufacturers Samsung, or to weigh their own position in the supply chain.

Do you dare to believe men in the world in recent years have continued to short

　　First of all, when seeing the title, not to mention the small series of spreading pornographic information, because as long as you don't think crooked on the line, of course, does that not many people want to; don't say small series is heading the party since it was so. Then revealed for everyone in the end is "short".

　　As we all know, when everyone was born, both from the parent body of the x and y chromosomes. If you get a X+Y chromosome, that is boys and if the x chromosome, that girl. And now, a new study has found that men's unique y chromosome, even in the shorter, currently 45 active gene and only 600,000 base pairs, and its length is on average only the x chromosome of one-third!

　　According to a scientific survey in the past period of about 200 years, world men's average has risen by as much as 15 cm in height, however decided to male sex shorter y chromosome has continued, for many people, this may be an issue of concern. OtterBox

　　As for the consequences of such events? If starting from the short term to see, perhaps in the future for a period of time, births of boys than girls--and of course, some time, this is definitely a good thing for China. After all, the current imbalance in the sex ratio leads to far more boys than girls, and in this way, at least within a certain period the proportion of boys and girls will balance all over again. OtterBox Note 4 Case

　　Of course, if this situation continues, male birth rate may in the future become very low and even disappears completely! If that day, even if the earth can keep, for humans is also the end of the world!

　　How about you and friends starting to YY if someday the world really just left you a man on this matter!

First parade of the Beidou system is how to make a 12 000 soldier uniform

Editor's Note: the big feeds from today. Micro letter: today the Big Dipper, pay attention to big industry.

Today is the last day of the 70 anniversary of the parade off during anti-Japanese war, but I believe that our breasts were starting in the big parade in blood and a sense of pride still can't be dispersed. During all this was behind the success of the commemoration, is inseparable from the support of technology, the Big Dipper is also one of the.

The parade scene when compelling question: size of 12,000 people parade, hundreds of ways in which equipment is, to achieve the uniform? In addition to know the Big Dipper for parade training, play an important role in the parade but also what application is not to be found in the Big Dipper? Victorias Secret iPhone 6 Plus Cases

Security vehicle dispatch system

Before the parade, President, XI Jinping and his wife, Peng Liyuan, Duan gate square to greet leaders at the Convention, attended the commemoration of guests arriving by vehicle on time, in order, split-second. But this in fact refers to "guard command and dispatch system of vehicles" credit.

In 2013, the Nanjing linkage technology group Beidou navigation and related research units of the PLA signed a strategic cooperation agreement, developed a guard vehicle dispatch system based on Beidou, in 2014 by the Chinese people's armed police force concierge team selected as the National Security Council system.

Security headquarters for the General Assembly to adopt the system, Chinese and foreign leaders can know in real time the departure time and location. Command simply on the big screen in the dispatch center to open map, click a location, you can give directions to the fleet of mobile terminals and road traffic police, marked the next target.

May at any time inform the team adjust your speed through the system, ensure that the fleet of vehicles to the venue on time. If the team quickly, if necessary, more around a few blocks. If advances slowly, or you can cut at short notice, and arranged around the other teams withdraw. In this way, guests participate in activities in many countries, may, in accordance with procedure split-second.

Parade vehicles training evaluation system

Parade, more than 600 vehicles military vehicles formed a team, uniform passing Tiananmen Square: constant velocity error is within 0.3 seconds of time, apart from the error is within 10 cm.　First use of high precision based on Beidou navigation positioning of parade vehicle training appraisal system plays an important role here.

This system's main equipment suppliers and concrete implementation of the project founder is Shanghai Sinan satellite navigation technology co., Ltd. Earlier this year, Sinan received a military parade command task, although in theory and driving test systems, but parade vehicle examination system of training scenario is much more complex.　In addition to the system significantly increased the amount of data, and vehicle data transmission when communication interference problems to be solved.

Past parade vehicles training, coaches are often discovered through Visual and video playback problems, accuracy and efficiency is not high.

This time around, the Beidou system in team in training, real time display of the precise position and speed of every vehicle, provides the coordinates of the data error is less than 2 cm, velocity data error is less than 0.03 m/s, data errors less than 0.1 degree, roll the data error is less than 0.2 degrees.　

Coaches can view the data to accurately identify problems and vehicles, and can guide the driver in real time in the vehicle direction and speed. With the help of Compass, parade around 70 minutes of traffic on early training team evaluation, more than 90 points in General. Victorias Secret iPhone 6+

"The Big Dipper" airborne command square foot equipment "big watch"

Use the Big Dipper to locate people through satellite positioning requests to the service system on the ground, ground positioning system using double-ball original understanding calculate the user's position and sends the user, which station you can find out the user's location.　While using GPS users can know where and can't let people know their place, this advantage is confidentiality.

The second generation Beidou navigation system with GPS-like functionality at the same time, it still retained the position reporting function, the user can choose whether to disclose their location. This feature facilitates the military parade command.

Parade parade of 12,000 people, a total series of 50 (staircase). Each team by reading with Beidou navigation system, such as square foot some of the staff people are equipped with positioning watches, similar to a small compass Navigator. Locations are projected on the screens of all the teams, between teams and the teams, and geometric relationships between man and man can be very clear and intuitive reflection, so that commanders in front of the screen each team and individual position very clearly, truly Holy, winning thousands outside.

Here, the Beidou system has a GPS-like functionality at the same time, also has a unique reporting functionality, and provide convenience for military parade command.

Compass exact space time function review, the officers and men of the time consistency problem can be solved. If two planes to cross flying in the sky, is based on the pilot's skill, but also needs to control the precise time, the Big Dipper, ensures the unity of time.

Note: the people's Liberation Army Lieutenant General, former Chief of staff of the PLA general staff, Central Military Commission Vice-Chairman Zhang Zhen, comrades, died of illness on September 3, 2015 at 17 o'clock in Beijing, at the age of 101.

I have in the end to finally pay tribute to Lieutenant General Zhang Zhen, General of the founding of China!
