Various kinds of mobile phone functions and brands have been the market segmentation is very clear, and the advent of modular mobile phones may be a powerful blow to break the status quo. Modular mobile phones are moving from the production line to the mass consumer market. But change is always accompanied by doubts and resistance.
The wave of consumer electronics that began in the last century has brought a shock to everyone's lives. Listen to the radio with Desheng Radio, Panasonic listening to learn English, as well as Sony CD and MD listening to high-quality music, and then the Patriot MP3, and then in MP3 can see the video, and then the ability to enhance the mobile phone, radio, music, video, photography, and games can be completed in the mobile phone, Mobile phones have become a highly integrated consumer of electronics. Basically all the manufacturers have experienced that all-in-one era! This is the result of the high integration, ease of integration, and compact size of the electronic equipment. When Apple launched the iphone, All-in-one's concept was pushed to the point we now know-the phone is a touch screen and user interaction, all of which are integrated into the phone, but hidden better, only when you need to appear. Today, the concept of "wearable", which is now more fiery, has been created. Due to the high integration and formability of mobile phones, it is difficult to give more power to it. What do we need to measure blood sugar? What do we need to do to detect PM2.5 's indicators? Add auxiliary and enhanced equipment to your phone, and this kind of equipment must be portable, which is the background of the "wearable" device, a natural idea.
The solution to the demands that have been put forward and those that have not yet been proposed is modularity. All the components are made into modules, people buy the module, is no longer the machine or parts, like the computer's DIY market, just, now the purpose is not only to reduce costs, but to maximize the needs of people, for example, I want to use 4G mobile phone, there is no need to change a machine, When I want to play augmented reality games, just buy a dedicated module. Moreover, only by modularity, we can maximize the use of Internet of things, mobile internet and other network resources.
