The Chinese Huawei Group wants his operating system emotion
UI to adapt to the needs of western customers. The android skin should
therefore after the update in autumn clearly from the previous Apple look move
away. According to the latest rumors Huawei also works in parallel to their own
operating system for its smartphones.
Apparently, Huawei through the development of an own OS
independent of Android, Google one day the support for third-party set or
introduce restrictions. Also Samsung had already taken care with Tizen OS and
the step to own software for its devices daring. According GSM Arena officer
Huawei to this end is now an own developer team in Scandinavia, which earlier
in the services from Nokia.
Big update for emotion UI in autumn
For the time being run Huawei devices but still with Android
in the look of the emotion UI, also called EMUI. In the autumn of 2016 is now
according to Android Authority an update for Huawei skin appear visually, which
above all as a great step forward. The previous design of EMUI was primarily
due to the Asian market, where they seem to be as simple as possible usability
and high contrast colors are preferred. Huawei is behind Apple and Samsung is
the largest smartphone manufacturer and now wants the sales figures in the west
huge boost.
Apple designer recruited
This is the emotion UI again more on Android, which remind
the user more flexibility and adaptation possibilities. Already in the last
year, Huawei therefore the former apple designer Abigail Brody, which already
at iOS collaborated. The new look is Android features with a special flair and
thus connect Huawei a completely new smartphone experience.
Front or back of the page? The HUAWEI P10 could be the fingerprint scanner for the first time to the front wheel slip. So far the Chinese manufacturer placed the scanner for all his flag ships on the back.
This Huawei P9 is just in the market, since diving first again rumours to the supposed successor to the Huawei P10. These concern the fingerprint scanner for Huawei smartphones traditionally on the rear side of the device to be found. But according to a Tip Sensor, according TechBuffalo to the Internet platform Weibo to speak this could be at the latest with the Huawei P10 are a thing of the past. Because the next flagship is the fingerprint sensor on the front of the smartphone hiking.
The Apple and Samsung are role models?
That would be the chinese more than before to manufacturers like
Apple and Samsungorient the fingerprint sensor, also on the front page of your smartphone to place. HTC And Lenovo had also published last devices in which the scanner is below the screen on the front. A third variant selects Sony. In the case of the current flagships of the Japanese is the fingerprint sensor on the side of the housing.
The fingerprint scanner on the front side of especially an advantage, if your smartphone with the display facing up flat on the table. You can then unlock the device, without which it is repealed and taken in hand. If Huawei this step but at P10 really is at the present time however is anything but clear. Until the release of the smartphone are estimated to be at least ten months.
The Chinese Preisbrecher Honor 5C will come in Europe on the market. What the Huawei subsidiary anteaserte via social media already for days, is now official. His release celebrating the middle class smartphone already on Monday. The price is just 199 euro.
Middle-class smartphones like the Moto G4 get strong competition from China. As of today, Monday, the Honor 5C is also sold in this country, that it wants to make its market rival difficult especially with a competitive price of 199 euros. There is a 5.2-inch Android smartphone that, inferior to his godfather, the Huawei P9 Lite in not many things. When designing the Honor model nose even has front: So the Huawei subsidiary donated their middle-class device with a metal housing, which is complemented by the edges only to plastic, to ensure always good reception. In Huawei P9-family, a metal unibody only for premium smartphones and P9 P9 Plus. Honor 5C: Without Fingerprint Sensor
However, a surprise is the fact that the Honor 5C is not as well equipped for the German market as the Chinese original. There, the model was presented in April - with fingerprint sensor, although the smartphone converted only costs about 140 euros there. In this safety technology German customers have to do without. Otherwise, the Honor 5C (almost), however, is on par with the Huawei P9 Lite. Only almost, because the Kirin 650 is supported at the lower of Honor 2 instead of 3 GB RAM. Technically almost identical to the Huawei P9 Lite
Otherwise, however, the technical data fall out identical. The main camera has a resolution of 13 megapixels and offers a manual mode Pro among others a HDR function. The selfie cam fixed focus has 8 megapixels. are stored photos on the 16 GB comprehensive internal memory or a microSD card, which finds an alternative to a second SIM card in Honor 5C Place. is delivered the Chinese smartphone with Android 6.0 Marshmallow and Huawei UI EMUI in version 4.1. The battery is 3000 mAh as large dimensioned like the Huawei P9 Lite and should bring the mid-size model as loosely over one and a half to two days.
The mytectech.blogspot.com editorial was invited to the launch event of Honor 5C and to gain locally a first impression of the smartphone. In detailed test of the middle class then we want to address the question whether the sharpest competition for Huawei P9 Lite straightway comes from their own home.
Dumping their past plan of action of flooding the planet with shoddy, unbranded cellphones, China's Huawei has ascended to wind up an all inclusive unmistakable brand and a genuine contender for Apple AAPL +1.52% and Samsung. Progressing quickly into new markets around the world, Huawei is currently the world's number three cell phone brand, with a 8.3 percent piece of the overall industry. Europe, specifically, has been open of Huawei, where the organization is developing at an extraordinary clasp on the back of better items and another brand picture.

Ascending from humble beginnings in Shenzhen in 1987, Huawei began as a maker of telephone switches. Growing up with the city's incipient hardware industry, Huawei would turned into the worldwide pioneer in information transfers systems by 2012 — in spite of a boycott by the US government and its automatic repercussions.
Be that as it may, where Huawei now stands to make the most waves is with its prime purchaser item: cell phones. A year ago, the organization sold 108 million of them — which is still a long ways behind Samsung and Apple, at 324 and 231 million units, individually, yet the hole is shutting quick. This year, Huawei's direction is looking significantly more extreme, as quarter one saw 28.8 million telephones sold, more than a 10 million unit year-on-year increment, while Samsung stayed level and Apple really went into decay.
This new worldwide business sector position was acquired through an exceptionally dynamic activity to definitely expand the nature of their element telephones and additionally real promotion battles intended to let the world realize that Huawei has arrived.
Huawei once discovered their corner offering handsets less expensive than the huge brands of the world, going after low hanging natural product as opposed to the premium levels taking off at the highest point of the shopper tree. My first Android gadget was a $100 Huawei that I got in 2012 in Jiangsu area. It was unremarkable however shabby — a slogan that could entirety up open opinion about the brand around then. Be that as it may, every one of this has changed for Huawei.
With the LG G5 and the Huawei P9 notify currently two smartphones with Dual Camera new on the market. But something similar like the devices at first appear, so different are in truth the concepts of the manufacturer with respect to the dual camera.
Dual Camera concept 1: The LG G5
LG equips its G5 reverse with a dual camera that consists of two different lenses and sensors. Besides the "main camera" with 16 megapixels and a 78 degree viewing angle, there is also a wide-angle camera, which dissolves with 8 megapixels, but covers a field of view of 135 degrees.
In principle, the users within the camera app anytime switch between two lenses back and forth and so take the appearance that appears to match the subject most appropriate. The change works just about typing on two symbols within the app. A Christmas tree stands for the normal lens, three trees highlight the wide-angle optics.
In general, the 78 ° scope is more suitable for pictures at close range, while let the wide-angle lens to capture objects at greater distances. This circumstance makes the camera app, among other things when zooming advantage. Zooms the user very far from a motive, then the app will automatically switch from the main camera to the wide angle lens. When zooming in the exact opposite happens.
LG uses its dual cam but also to make some very special photos. The Pop Out photos use both lenses, the image of the main camera is placed over the image of the wide angle camera. The latter is characterized as a kind of framework for the actual main subject. Similar images can be even by post on Create PC, however, turned on the LG G5 directly from the state.
Dual Camera concept 2: The Huawei P9
Even the Huawei P9 has a dual camera whose lens in this case originate even from the German specialist Leica. However, the manufacturer chooses a completely different approach than LG. Instead of two lenses with different angles and resolutions to block, both of which have the P9 the exact same point of view and also the same resolution of 12 megapixels. The difference here is that Huawei in addition to normal Cam nor built a monochrome camera, which is designed exclusively for shooting in black and white.
Compared to black and white color filters, which can be put on almost any smartphone on the shots that monochrome camera can capture much more light differences and thus more details in black and white shots. To disclose to the finished photos and fine gradations in very bright and very dark areas, which would easily swallow a later DOMICILED Black & White filters.
Besides the number of lenses Huawei doubled P9, the number of sensors. Thus, the P9 at any time the light information from two sensors has in pictures, thereby winning images even in low light conditions to details. In addition, by almost twice as much image information as available as in images that are snapped with normal smartphone cameras.
In particular, the additional depth information obtained by the second sensor, to let some very impressive games. So the focus of images can, for example, change in the final image even after the actual shooting still - even dramatically. This is only possible because it required image information due to the second sensor are already available. The disadvantage is that stored images therefore requires more space on the internal memory than other smartphones.
Conclusion: two concepts, two winners
LG and Huawei put two completely different priorities in their dual-camera smartphones. Nevertheless, both can equally popular. The LG G5 particularly impressed with its unusually large zoom range, which is achieved by the flowing exchange between the two lenses. When Huawei P9, it is primarily the second camera sensor that can score. It ensures that for an image ready so many depth information that the focus can massively change even in hindsight. Add to this the possibility of black and white photos to shoot in a quality as with any smartphone camera was not yet possible.
Apple sold the first time less iPhones. But the smartphone boom is over, not only in Cupertino, as current market figures show. The search for the next hype, meanwhile, has already begun.
The boom seems to be over for iPhone and Samsung Galaxy.
So now it's happened. Just a day after Apple admitted for the first time that the iPhone sales not grow indefinitely in the air, on Wednesday and the market research firm IDC's analysis of the smartphone market presented in the first quarter of 2016 and even there the numbers speak for themselves: the growth has come to a standstill and the Edukators.
The end of the big boom
334.9 million smartphones were sold in the first three months of the year. This is still an absurdly high number and even 0.2 percent more than last year. Given the cracks that have been achieved in the past in sales, you still have to speak of a turning point here, however. The booming market in recent years seems to have finally reached its full potential and is likely to settle in the next few years at a very high level.
Better technology at better prices
Is that a problem? For customers, it is generally only times not because they get now always better smartphones increasingly attractive prices. Were there fully equipped devices a few years ago only in the premium segment, as these are now also available as early as the middle class. However, those who spends 600 euros or more today, gets the same smartphone that so powerful and so well equipped is to stay loose for four years in operation. Sure, the next iPhone will then probably be back 50 percent faster than the current, perhaps it is also leaner and has a better camera, but honestly: Why?
Manufacturers will continue to sell large quantities of mobile phones and the customers they will continue to buy often - just as they continue to buy large numbers of televisions, computers and tablets. But if it once again get the great technological revolutions of the past for us, is questionable. OLED screens, curved displays, borderless screens, waterproof equipment, pressure-intensive display, dual cameras - all of which have been around, all this will probably not encourage buyers to great jubilation storms.
China eats market shares of Samsung and Apple
Within this market, although it might still come to extensive shifts the balance of power that have emerged very clearly in the first quarter 2016, according to IDC. So the sales were made at market leader Samsung compared to last year by 0.6 percent, with Apple there were even dramatic 16.3 percent. Most other traditional manufacturers had recorded a decrease, while the winners especially young companies from China, the high-end devices usually at significantly lower prices than its competitors offer from South Korea, the US and Japan. So Huawei achieved compared to last year a sales increase of 58.4 percent. The manufacturer Oppo and Vivo even came up with an increase of 153.2 or 123.8 percent.
The next boom comes determined
The search for the next big thing is however already in full swing. After smartwatches and wearables this claim yet justly, invest tech giants like Samsung, HTC, Microsoft, Intel, Sony, Facebook, Google, Amazon and Valve already heavily in new areas such as virtual reality, augmented reality and cloud computing.
Apple has a (luxury) problem
Only Apple seems at least for now to be caught a little cold from the weather change and is still fully calibrated on iPhone. Exactly one can Tim Cook then perhaps blame: While it is the CEO succeeded in recent years, even to squeeze the last cent out of the smart phone arena and to make Apple as the most valuable company in the world, it seems at present to a vision to be missing for the period after the iPhone. But - and it was stressed enough - Apple thanks to its iPhone after all, eaten a thick cushion so that it can survive as a phase and easily find connection.
