Recently, the number of new smartphone activations in the Chinese market in November 2023 released by market research institute BCI showed that Xiaomi's activation volume increased by 44% year-on-year1%, surpassing Huawei and reaching the first place in domestic brands. Undoubtedly, the biggest credit for this achievement is naturally Xiaomi's latest flagship, the Xiaomi 14 series. But here is the Xiaomi 14 series, which has been a great success.
On the other hand, the failure of the welding door of Xiaomi's sub-brand Redmi K70 Pro has caused heated discussions among the majority of netizens. Before the release of the Redmi K70 series, Lu Weibing said that he would not give any chance to his friends this time, and he would weld the doors firmly in all gears. And this is true after the release of the Redmi K70 series.
The Redmi K70 Standard and K70 Pro have won the names of the cheapest Snapdragon 8 Gen2 and Snapdragon 8 Gen3 phones, respectively. Especially the release of the follow-up OnePlus 12 has enhanced Lu Weibing's self-confidence, but after the release of another blockbuster opponent, the Realme GT5 Pro, Lu Weibing couldn't laugh. It's the same Snapdragon 8 Gen3, except for a small disadvantage on the screen.
Realme GT5 Pro can be said to completely surpass Redmi K70 Pro in terms of parameters, and**It is also cheaper than 1 yuan, which is not very harmful but extremely insulting. And this advantage is also directly reflected in the sales volume, the realme GT5 Pro was sold out directly after the first sale, and the sales data in all aspects are also very bright.
There are even a large number of netizens who flocked to Lu Weibing, Wang Teng and other Xiaomi executive accounts, ridiculing that Redmi was stolen by a friend, hoping that Redmi could fight back as soon as possible. However, the counterattack at the product level is still ahead, and executives such as Lu Weibing and Wang Teng have begun to export language to new opportunities for friendly businessmen. For example, Wang Teng counted the weak points of the new opportunities of friends, and even said that its sales were not as good as K70 Pro.
And Lu Weibing mercilessly pointed out that the new opportunities of friends are heavy and very "pressing", the design is very "retro", and the mold has a strong "sense of gap". He also said that the control standards of friends are not as good as Redmi, emphasizing that Redrice ensures that the quality standards are higher than the industry, and when it comments on the parameters of new opportunities for friends.
It is a change to the previous statement that Redmi played with parameters as invincible,Said that Redmi used to uphold the leading parameters,Recently adjusted to"Parameter leadership + experience first"Pay equal attention,K70The series does not have a simple and crude pile of parameters,But to aim at the real use scenarios and needs of users to make products,Do it with one hand to grasp the parameters,One hand to grasp the experience!It is equivalent to an indirect response to the situation of a friend breaking the door.
Regarding the response of Lu Weibing and other executives, netizens naturally quickly divided the camp, some for and some against. But anyway, Xiao Zhi feels that the Redmi K70 series has encountered a tricky problem this time, and let's see how Lu Weibing will deal with it in the future!
