Generation Android

October 18th, 2011

Google’s Android OS has made a big difference in the Chinese smartphone manufacturing industry in the last few years. There has been a definite shift in preference from the design and development of proprietary operating systems for their smartphones to designing their smartphones around the Android operating system.

This has allowed many Chinese smartphone manufacturers to reduce overall production costs and focus mainly on producing solid hardware bases with a wide range of features and with the kind of capabilities that can be expected from a modern smartphone. These improvements are definitely noticeable and Chinese smartphones become better and better with each new generation that is released.

The most recent generation of smartphones has been particularly notable – with the majority of Chinese smartphone manufacturers almost exclusively releasing smartphones running Android 2.2 or Android 2.3. A closer inspection of the hardware that these newer Chinese smartphones are running really shows how much the industry in China has improved – at least on the hardware manufacturing sector.

Most of the recently releases smartphones run on the MTK6516 mobile processor, which on its own is very capable and is able to run Android OS and any apps that are installed smoothly and easily. Although resistive touch screens are still being used, capacitive touch screens have clearly started to show up more prominently on Chinese smartphones, especially those above $175. With most brand name smartphones that use capacitive touch screens costing anywhere above $300, this is a significant development, as it really is hard to replace the impact that the ease-of-use of a capacitive touch screen makes on a users, especially those who will be using a touch screen phone for the first time.

Online wholesalers have been quick to snatch up these newer smartphones, and they have by all accounts become instant hits with their customers – something that doesn’t seem to come as a surprise to many of us anymore. Chinese smartphones have garnered a level of respect among many tech savvy users because they are easy to customize to suit ones needs. The deployments of Android that they utilize are easily rooted, so jailbreaking them to install a custom OS or other software that otherwise would not be available for download or use is a relatively easy task for those with some basic experience in working with Android OS installations.

Bigboxstore.com has definitely not been left behind in acquiring these new handsets for sale online. In fact, on closer inspection, the electronics wholesalers still offers the lowest prices on the internet for these new smartphones. Customers who are interested in the growth and development of the smartphone market in Asia will find really great deals here to fulfill all their Chinese smartphone fantasies.

Putting Chinese Online Wholesale Markets in the Spotlight

September 26th, 2011

Look up the latest financial news from any major international news outlet and two topics are likely to surface amongst the current top stories: the European Debt Crisis and the possible effects this will have on the fast growing Asian economies. Recent events clearly show that more hard financial times are drawing closer as the eurozone economies of Greece, Ireland, and Portugal inch toward default and fears of contagion heighten amongst EU member countries, especially in Spain, where a default could spell a meltdown of the entire European Monetary Unit.

With this European “double dip” on the horizon, many are looking to Asia, which, no doubt will be affected. Chinese investors today expressed that it would show no interest in bailing out European debt stating, “We (China) can’t just go save someone. We’re not saviors. We have to save ourselves.” Analysts are also saying that the economic downturn caused by fears arising from the European debt crisis might have a negative effect on fast growing export-driven Asian economies such as China and Indonesia.

Where does this all put online wholesale markets based out of China? While figures have shown that the Chinese manufacturing industry has contracted in the last 3 consecutive months, online wholesalers in China are optimistic that this will not affect their profits in the near future. Online wholesalers are hoping that the affordable prices that they are able to offer customers for electronics, apparel, and other consumer items will continue to drive buyers to their sites especially as consumers again prepare to cut spending.

In fact, many online wholesalers can trace their origins to the 2008 global financial crisis, many of them starting as a response to the increased demand for lower priced goods when consumer spending was at an all-time low. Fast forward a couple of years and people continue to patronize Chinese online wholesalers for the same reasons that they did back in 2008. It is no doubt then that online wholesalers are staying optimistic despite fears of another system-wide meltdown should global markets face the sudden decline of the euro.

What’s clear to Chinese online wholesalers is that customers are still buying, whether in Europe or in any other region for that matter. Business is just as healthy as any other day. Online wholesalers are also attributing customer loyalty to an improvement in product quality brought about by better research and development and manufacturing practices amongst growing Chinese product manufacturers. The improvements go back full circle to Chinese online wholesalers who bring new products to the forefront and process the bulk of orders directly from manufacturers.

Whatever the case is, many Chinese online wholesalers have expressed their determination to stay afloat no matter what happens in the world markets and continue to provide quality computers, security devices, and other products at affordable prices that will be hard to resist. Many even encourage customers to spend now in anticipation of a possible rise in Chinese manufacturing costs. At the moment, as with the European financial crisis as a whole, only time can tell.
