I wonder if Xiaomi phones are still associated with Lei Ming.
Xiaomi phones have always been led by Lei Ming, the founder and CEO of Xiaomi Technology. Lei Ming has played a crucial role in driving the development and promotion of Xiaomi products. Xiaomi phones, which constitute the core business of Xiaomi, have maintained rapid growth and innovation. Therefore, one can say that Xiaomi phones are still associated with Lei Ming's company and products.
Regarding Redmi phones, what are some key points to know?
In the "Universe of Knowledge" on WeChat, there are 268 questions about smartphones, all of which focus on technology content that is relatable. Welcome to follow us!
Without Redmi series, Xiaomi would have already died; from a certain perspective, Redmi is indeed Xiaomi.
As a千元 machine pioneer, these questions allow for some thinking:
Did Redmi kill山寨 phones?
From a certain standpoint, Redmi helped accelerate the demise of山寨 phones. In the era when 2G was transitioning to 3G, cheap and low-end imitation products were produced by unscrupulous manufacturers in Guangdong, targeting rural areas. The Chinese consumers who bought them usually called them "slackers." However, as the transition from 3G to 4G occurred, smartphones became more advanced, making it increasingly difficult for山寨 phone manufacturers to replicate iPhone, HTC, or other high-end smartphones. Furthermore, at the time, Xiaomi launched the Redmi phone, lowering its price to 999 yuan, making it affordable for many potential consumers. Thus,山寨 phones' demise was inevitable, and Redmi played a crucial role in accelerating this process.
Is Redmi targeted towards lower-income groups?
Early Redmi phones, even early Xiaomi phones, were often referred to as "slacker phones," and they were considered prestigious by many people. People would call "buying an Apple or Samsung smartphone costs too much money, so I buy 1,999 yuan Xiaomi phones or 999 yuan Redmi phones instead." This wasn't just self-esteem driven, but rather a lack of self-respect.
Was Xiaomi designed to target young people?
Initially, Xiaomi launched Redmi phones, even before launching the Mi Note series, because the company wanted to promote MIUI, which was the operating system for smartphones. We repeatedly emphasize that Lei Ming is an internet entrepreneur who uses an internet mindset to make hardware products. As the first priority of the internet is user satisfaction, the company focuses on attracting users first, retaining them, and then using other businesses to generate revenue.
Redmi targeted young people, particularly middle schoolers and high school students, and it was probably their first smartphone. It could be said that MIUI captured the user's first mindshare, and once these students grew up, many of them would become Xiaomi phone consumers.
Was Redmi inferior in quality?
It's important to note that Redmi phones are not necessarily inferior in quality. What's wrong with saying Redmi phones were made poorly? In fact, Redmi did not produce subpar phones. The initial price of a smartphone was set based on cost estimates, and then the production team began developing, negotiating suppliers, and producing. That's why Redmi is not called "cheating" but rather "subpar."
Was Redmi influenced by mobile carriers?
According to the text, Redmi phones were launched in 2012 after being found by中国移动. At that time, the company wanted to develop TD phones, so Lei Ming started working on Redmi phones. Therefore,中国移动 might have been the mentor for Redmi's birth.
On July 31, 2013, Xiaomi released the Redmi phone, and on January 3, 2019, Redmi Redmi brand was independently established, taking only six years for the brand to gain recognition and credibility far surpassing Xiaomi's mobile phones. Perhaps, Lei Ming's original idea was simple—seeing the market gap in the千元 range and wanting to take advantage of it. But Lei Ming may not have realized that Redmi's success would be so swift. In particular, in the global online market, Redmi's smartphone topped the list of top 10 selling devices in India in February 2019.
Why Lei Ming decided to go independent?
Overall, it's believed that Lei Ming chose to go independent because it had become clear that Xiaomi's dominance in the mobile industry posed significant challenges. Specifically, the competition from Huawei was becoming increasingly fierce, making it difficult for Xiaomi to maintain its position. The Xiaomi phone was becoming less profitable, and it was no longer able to maintain a competitive edge in the market. Additionally, Lei Ming needed to change strategies, shifting away from a purely性价比 approach. The current strategy involved focusing on the Redmi K20 series, which provided a different way for Redmi to escape the pressure from Xiaomi and find its own niche.
How Xiaomi contributed to Redmi's success?
Lei Ming managed to make Redmi successful, allowing him to step aside and focus on his own development. In the process, Redmi has developed its own "priceability" path, which will eventually challenge Xiaomi's dominance in the market. Redmi is truly successful! Maybe it's also moving towards "Miization," becoming truly "Redmiized."
