Apple's iPhone 16 Launch Parade On Monday Gets Rained On By Huawei: Chinese Company's Tri-Fold Phone Gets Over A Million Orders In Just 7 Hours
Chinese tech heavyweight Huawei Technologies' newest tri-fold smartphone, the Mate XT, attracted 1.3 million orders within seven hours of opening reservations.
華爲科技巨頭最新的三摺疊智能手機Mate Xt,在開放預定7小時內吸引了130萬訂單。
What Happened: On Saturday at 12:08 p.m., the Chinese telecom equipment supplier started taking orders for the new device, reported Nikkei Asia.
週六下午12:08,中國電信設備供應商開始接受新設備訂單,據亞洲日報報道。
The Mate XT, available in red and black, is scheduled to be unveiled on Tuesday, just after $Apple (AAPL.US)$ is anticipated to reveal the iPhone 16 in the U.S. on Monday.
Mate Xt將於週二揭開神祕面紗,有紅黑兩個版本可供選擇。 $蘋果 (AAPL.US)$ 預計週一將會有iPhone 16在美國發布。
Huawei's tri-fold smartphone is set to officially hit the market on Sept. 20. The pricing and detailed specifications are expected to be announced at Tuesday's launch.
華爲的三摺疊智能手機預計將於9月20日正式上市。具體定價和詳細規格預計將在週二的發佈會上公佈。
In addition to the smartphone, Huawei also intends to launch a series of electric and new energy vehicles developed in partnership with a Chinese automaker, the report noted.
除了智能手機,華爲還計劃與中國一家汽車製造商合作推出一系列電動車和新能源車。
Why It Matters: Huawei's decision to launch a product on the same day as Apple's is reportedly part of its broader plan to compete with Cupertino in the Chinese market, where the U.S. tech giant has been losing ground.
爲了與蘋果在中國市場上競爭,華爲決定在同一天推出產品。目前,這家美國科技巨頭在中國市場上一直在失去份額。
In July this year, it was reported that Apple had dropped from third to sixth place in China's smartphone market, while Huawei saw a significant surge in smartphone shipments.
今年7月,有報道稱蘋果在中國智能手機市場的排名從第三位下降至第六位,而華爲的智能手機出貨量顯著增加。
Apple's market share in China fell to 14% in the second quarter of 2024, down by two percentage points compared to the same period in the last year.
2024年第二季度,蘋果在中國的市場份額降至14%,較去年同期下降了兩個百分點。
The rivalry between Apple and Huawei was also evident in January this year when the Cupertino, California-based tech giant decided to slash iPhone prices in China — an unprecedented move by the Tim Cook-led company.
蘋果和華爲之間的競爭也在今年1月顯而易見,當時總部位於加州庫比蒂諾的科技巨頭決定在中國削減iPhone的價格——這是由蒂姆·庫克領導的公司做出的空前之舉。
