At noon on July 31, Beijing time, a foreign media Patently Apple reported that “in 2019, the leap in speed brought by 5G technology requires smartphones to be equipped with high-performance radiators.” The article pointed out that Huawei will launch a 5G smartphone next summer, and it will use copper blocks to dissipate heat to ensure its smartphones run smoothly under 5G networks. Today, we learn that Samsung is already ahead of Huawei in this regard.
According to new sources, the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 to be launched next week may be equipped with an efficient cooling solution to ensure that the phone can continue to maintain high performance when users are playing games. This is likely to prepare for the launch of smartphones equipped with 5G networks next year.
It is reported that Samsung has obtained the exclusive rights to "Fortnite" (Fortnite) on the Galaxy Note 9 on the Android system for a limited time. Technology website WccfTech reported, “This phone can maintain the performance of the processor and GPU clock frequency, allowing the "Fortress Night" game to run seamlessly and smoothly on its system. In addition, the Galaxy Note 9 will also be equipped with an external monitor, and No need to use Dock".
There is also news that Samsung’s new Note 9 has longer battery life, higher storage space and faster processor operation. The preview video released by Samsung on Friday confirmed the desirability of the rumors.
It is said that Galaxy Note 9 will be equipped with a 4000 mAh battery, which is also the phone with the largest battery capacity among Samsung smartphones. The newly launched high-quality, high-priced mobile phone is said to be equipped with industry-leading 512GB of memory and 8GB of RAM.
Today, Samsung and Tencent have reached an alliance to compete with Apple and Google.
On July 28, according to news from the investment banking industry, Samsung Electronics and Tencent have decided to jointly invest in artificial intelligence speakers and game development. "At the beginning of this year, Samsung Electronics and Tencent have agreed to jointly invest in artificial intelligence speakers and game solutions. The two companies are discussing actual business matters." Investment bank executives said, "They plan to establish a joint venture."
Through cooperation with Tencent, Samsung Electronics is trying to restore its share of the Chinese smartphone market, and Samsung's share has now fallen to 3%. Tencent is trying to find a breakthrough in the field of online games, this business accounts for more than 70% of the company's revenue. Last year, Tencent's online game business revenue was 167.5 billion yuan, accounting for more than 70% of its total revenue of 239.4 billion yuan (expected amount).
This cooperation will allow the two companies to get what they need. Samsung Electronics is expanding its Bixby intelligent assistant business to platforms other than smartphones, such as home appliances and displays.
In terms of Internet platforms, Tencent is in a leading position in China and even the global market, while Samsung Electronics is relatively weak in this field. Tencent's messaging app WeChat has more than 980 million monthly active users. The company is currently using AI technology in its news business and plans to apply this technology to autonomous vehicles in the future.
The ultimate goal of the alliance between Samsung Electronics and Tencent is to occupy a leading position in the smart home market. AI speakers are the core of the smart home market and may dominate the rise and fall of IT companies. AI speakers are expected to become the hub of indoor and outdoor home appliances together with smartphones in the future. The cooperation between the two world-class IT companies began with a consensus that they are both latecomers in the smart home market.
The purpose of the cooperation between Tencent and Samsung is to achieve leapfrog development in the field of artificial intelligence. In the field of artificial intelligence, Tencent lags behind Chinese rivals Baidu and Alibaba.
This year, Samsung Electronics integrated Bixby, a voice recognition service, into its AI speakers. It was reported last week that AI speakers equipped with Bixby will come out as early as next week.
