All parties are trying to get through the mobile and PC to achieve ecological integration.
The competition between mobile phone manufacturers is now at a new level.
At the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 conference on August 8, Samsung and Microsoft announced the strategic alliance. Samsung Electronics and Microsoft will integrate application software and network services, and Samsung Electronics will bundle Microsoft’s “Your Phone” application on its Galaxy Note 10. Galaxy Note 10 can completely mirror the SMS, notifications and screens of Android with a Windows 10 PC – that is, you can control the mobile interface through the PC.
At the same time, Samsung mobile phone users can also use OneDrive provided by Microsoft for file storage. In short, Samsung will work with Microsoft to open up the mobile and PC sides to provide a better experience for users. Samsung itself has hardware products such as mobile phones and PCs. Microsoft itself has PC-side applications and cloud services. The two sides are complementary in technology, so it is also known as the marriage of Android and Windows.
Interestingly, Apple is also planning to open iOS and MacOS, so that the iPhone, iPad, and Mac can communicate with each other, which can improve the user experience and lower the threshold of software development, and realize the software in the same ecology and different. Hardware compatibility.
Some foreign media believe that this technology alliance between Samsung and Microsoft will strengthen the competitiveness of both and Apple in similar fields.
But from the perspective of technology development, Samsung’s joint efforts to open up mobile and PC-side may be the technology trend in the near future to create more business opportunities. For example, for Microsoft, the marriage of technology with Samsung may introduce it into the mobile terminal market. Previous attempts by Microsoft in this area have not been successful. For Apple, the iPhone’s access to the rest of the hardware is also conducive to consolidating its ecological foundation.
Besides Samsung and Apple, Huawei is also moving in a similar direction. Glory’s forthcoming smart screen will use Near Field Communication (NFC) to open the interface between mobile phones, tablets and smart TVs. The smart screen will use the Huawei Hongmeng system.
With the growth of the smartphone market and the slowdown in technology updates, smartphone makers are currently trying to expand their ecological boundaries. In the future, major manufacturers will use their own system software to integrate more hardware products (including wearable devices, etc.). From the current progress, Samsung, Apple and Huawei have adopted similar strategies to strengthen their own. Ecological barriers.
