November 11, 2008, China, Beijing, the Water Cube.
Meizu Corporation convened well-known domestic media outlets on this day to hold a grand press conference, officially launching the Meizu M8 smartphone to the public!
The Meizu M8 is essentially the Meizu M8 from my previous life.
However, it has an additional front-facing camera, and the charging connector has been changed to a Geek Technology Type-C connector protocol charging connector.
Furthermore, unlike the previous life, this life's Meizu M8 smartphone uses the Geek smartphone system instead of the previous life's Microsoft WindowsCE system.
This also means that it supports all games and software on the Geek smartphone system!
As for the hardware, like the Geek S1 smartphone, it also uses the Sanhan S3C6410 processor.
It also uses 256MB of RAM, has 8GB and 16GB of storage space, and has distance sensors, light sensors, and electronic gyroscope sensors.
In terms of the phone's SOC hardware configuration, this phone, apart from the two regrettable aspects of using LG's capacitive screen and having a screen size of only inches and a camera with only million pixels.
Its other hardware performance is not lower than that of the Geek S1 smartphone.
At least because of its powerful performance, the smooth experience of playing games and daily operations is not weak.
Therefore, this life's Meizu M8's attraction to consumers directly surpasses the previous life's Meizu M8!
Even compared to domestic and foreign consumers, the attraction is not much worse than the Geek S1 smartphone.
Because the price of the Meizu M8 smartphone is really quite attractive, compared to the somewhat expensive Geek S1 smartphone.
The Meizu M8 smartphone is simply the real king of cost performance!
As for what their prices are?
The standard version of the Meizu M8 smartphone is priced at 2480 yuan, which is 100 yuan more expensive than in its previous life.
It can be seen that the success of the Geek S1 smartphone has given Meizu Corporation great confidence, allowing them to raise their bottom line.
As for the price of the high-end version, the Meizu M8 smartphone is priced at 2999 yuan, which is still quite attractive.
So, after seeing this price, consumers immediately went crazy.
After the Meizu M8 smartphone was released, the 100,000 phones that Meizu Corporation had prepared were sold out on the same day!
This also made Huang Zhang, the boss of Meizu Corporation, extremely happy, and he directly called out his thanks to Geek Technology Company.
Because they can sell so well, in addition to their phone prices being super cheap and having super high cost performance.
This is also related to their use of the Geek smartphone system, which can play "Fruit Ninja", "Roller Coaster", and "Angry Birds".
You can use software such as "Geek Comics", "Geek Chat", and "Geek Short Video".
Therefore, in the Meizu M8, consumers saw the shadow of the Geek S1 smartphone and regarded it as a small-screen version of the Geek S1 smartphone.
Finally, coupled with the price being so cheap, sales naturally exploded, directly creating a record of selling 100,000 units on the first day.
So, before long, news about the Meizu M8 smartphone appeared in reports from domestic and foreign technology media.
This directly shocked countless readers and made many people with insufficient funds' eyes light up.
The Geek S1 smartphone is a bit expensive and they can't afford it, but can't they afford the cheaper Meizu M8?
Apart from the smaller screen size, the Meizu M8 can be completely regarded as a Geek S1 smartphone.
Needless to say, online shopping orders for the Meizu M8 experienced explosive growth, with orders for 1 million phones in less than three days.
It can be said that if Meizu Corporation can maintain this development trend, then becoming this life's Xiaomi mobile phone company is very likely.
The great success achieved by Meizu Corporation is a considerable stimulus for global game and software developers.
Why were they hesitant before about whether to develop games and software on the Geek smartphone system?
Isn't the reason actually that the Geek smartphone system mainly relies on the Geek S1 smartphone to support it?
When Nokia invested in the Android system company, and future Nokia smartphones will use the Android system,
It is naturally destined that the Android system will rise.
This made global game and software developers hesitate.
They didn't know whether to first develop games and software on the Geek smartphone system, or to first develop games and software on the Android system or the Apple i0S system.
At this time, after seeing the amazing sales created by Meizu smartphones, they had to admit that the 'Geek Smartphone System Alliance' had really stood up.
Through the Meizu M8 smartphone incident, those game and software developers realized that if a Meizu phone can appear today, a second Meizu phone may appear in the future.
Relying on the sales of the Geek S1 smartphone itself, coupled with the sales of Meizu phones and other phones.
This shows that the future installed base and market share of the Geek smartphone system will definitely be quite amazing and the share will not be low!
So, those companies that previously issued articles condemning the "Geek Tax" and vowed that if Geek Technology Company did not reduce the "Geek Tax".
Then they would not develop games and software on the Geek smartphone system.
They immediately deleted their comments, fearing that they would be noticed by Geek Technology Company and then given a hard time!
After all, if the market share of the Geek smartphone system is very low, then they can be arrogant no matter how they are.
But at this time, looking at the future development trend of the Geek smartphone system, it seems that it will occupy more than half of the market share.
If they really offend Geek Technology Company at this time, it is equivalent to giving up half of the smartphone market share. How can they not shrink up and become ostriches?
Moreover, an announcement released by Geek Technology Company next completely eliminated their intention to confront Geek Technology Company.
Because according to the news announced by Geek Technology Company, Geek Technology Company will take out 3% from its own 15% 'Geek Tax' to hold a 'Geek Software Game Development Competition'.
Thinking about the total amount of 'Geek Tax' that Geek Technology Company can get every quarter and every year, they were all tempted to stop their fighting mentality.
Instead, they wanted to quickly take advantage of the fact that there were not many games and software on the Geek smartphone system and the competitive pressure was not great.
Immediately develop new software and games to get that tempting bonus.
This situation also made Google Corporation furious.
It is said that in the three days after the Meizu M8 was released, the most common words in Google Corporation were words scolding Meizu Corporation.
They scolded Meizu Corporation for destroying their Google Corporation's plan, and they deserved to die!
However, their curses and bad mood are destined not to stop, because Meizu Corporation is just the first mobile phone company to stand up.
Among the many mobile phone companies in China, there is not only one mobile phone company that uses the Geek smartphone system.
These companies naturally have different speeds in developing smartphones due to their different scientific research strengths, but no matter how slow they are, they will not be much slower.
Of course, what really made Google Corporation jump with anger was not the fact that many Chinese mobile phone companies would release new smartphones using the Geek smartphone system in the future.
What really made them jump with anger was not a mobile phone company, but a mobile phone chip manufacturer.
The name of this mobile phone chip manufacturer is Lianfa Ke!
