In an interview with the newspaper The Seattle Times , Joe Kelly, head of. contact with the international media at Huawei, said in a very strong way on Windows Phone. He said that his company no longer wishes to produce smartphones running Microsoft. The reason seems to be clear and surprising at the same time.
“Do not earned anything on Windows Phone. No one earned on Windows Phone” – he said.
Following the release on the market Huawei Ascend In 1 and W2 Chinese had even planned to produce a model that works on both HR and on Androdzie, but ended up on the announcement.
Why Huawei states that on smartphones with Windows Phone is not possible to make ? Microsoft went on to hand the producers – but only from India . Abolish the license fee for them on your system. Perhaps Huawei does not withstand competition from low-cost smartphones. Kelly admitted in a conversation with the Seattle Times that he felt his breath on the back Xiaomi, a company that aims to be second Samsung . Must also compete with other partners invited to cooperate by Microsoft. These include Foxconn, Lenovo, and ZTE.
The company declares that he wants to focus on the production of high-end smartphones (similar conclusions reached sometime HTC). Despite this, the offer Huawei is a lot of very low-cost Android smartphones – some costing less than $ 500. Maybe it’s just the scale of sales. Windows Phone smartphones are less popular than Android, and therefore more profitable to produce something, which will be tens of millions of customers.
Service fiercewireless.com reports that Huawei maybe this year achieve sales of smartphones at 80 million units. The company recorded a sales growth this year by 62 percent (year on year) – mainly due to the Latin America, the Middle East and Africa . One of the major successes of the company is to sell two million units of the model Ascend P7 in just two months since its release.
At the moment, Microsoft’s mobile system begin to produce new businesses, such as for example Prestigio. PSP8400 MultiPhone Duo is true costs about 350 zł., But I heard from one of the people who saw the presentation of this phone at IFA 2014 is the first smartphone with Windows Phone, which jams … Perhaps Huwawei is difficult to compete with producers who further cut costs and use cheaper components. On the low-end smartphones with little popular system is difficult to earn. Is this Microsoft’s fault or bad business decisions Huawei? Please leave comments.
