The eco-chain of the iphone renovation machine

These two days, the stewardess incident in the industry caused a lot of hot talk, there are a lot of experts jumped to shoot bricks, but also caused a lot of marketing number to spread some rumors to arouse concern. In the recent days, Apple also formally responded, will thoroughly investigate.

A few days ago, there was also a news that a young man put the iphone on the pillow to charge, resulting in the midnight explosion, fortunately, no casualties. And this time, the tragedy happened, the stewardess unfortunate death, at the age of 23 years, is the youth, so go.

At the beginning of the event, there are several versions circulated on the Internet, one is that the stewardess wash the bath, wet hands to pick up the phone, one is that the stewardess with mobile power charge, but also to the mobile power charge. But in the end the rumor is that the stewardess is a direct charge of the case to answer the phone, and did not wash after the bath and then connect. But before the real results come out, we don't know what the truth is, so don't take a wild guess, until Apple and the police investigate the results.

In addition, Zang, founder of The Phantom, also expressed his views on the matter at the Phantom Forum:

1, the phone itself is very low voltage will not be dangerous to the human body, unless charging when the charger leakage or computer charging when the computer leakage to the phone's metal shell.

2, mobile phone charging to avoid the use of no safety certification of inferior chargers, computer-charged computer chassis of the metal shell best good grounding, and to ensure that the computer itself is safe and reliable power.

For the online analysis of the big brick home, this is not much said, if you are interested in the analysis of brick, you can go to the Internet to search. Because it is not a brick home, so we do not here to shoot bricks.

Behind this tragedy, you might as well take a look at it from another angle.

The eco-chain of the iphone renovation machine

Friends often ask how much the IPhone 4 and 4S are now, and want to take advantage of it. In this case, I will tell them, do not buy, especially in the market circulation of the iphone, if you want to buy, do not cheap, you must go to the Apple Direct shop, in addition to Apple's direct store, the other are not to buy.

Why should such a well-meaning repeat to warn friends, that is because now in the unofficial channels of the iphone, 80% are refurbished machines. These refurbished machines are not the usual refurbished machines, they may be called the assembly machine more appropriate.

In Huaqiang North, there is such a word. As long as you are xxx, walk from the first floor to the third floor, you can assemble a mobile phone. Because in that humble building, one to three floors are selling mobile phone accessories, from the shell, to the chip, to the font, everything. You just buy one here, buy one there, and you can assemble a machine entirely by yourself.

And in this building behind, there is a gray industrial chain, in the past few years, many people rely on it to make a fortune, bought a car, bought a house. The world is not as good as it used to be, but the chain still exists, but it has not been as beautiful as it was a few years ago.

On the Internet, you are now buying an iphone 4, which you can buy around 2000. And the iphone 4S will cost hundreds of yuan, close to 3,000. They look exactly like a normal iphone, and you can even do it in the online way that teaches you how to test it.

Because it's the "real" iPhone, from beginning to end? From the Inside out? That's impossible, but most of it is true, such as motherboards, chips, screens, and so on. Of course, also not completely excluded, a conscientious person, selling from inside to outside are real refurbished machine.

Not long ago there was a news, the Beijing boys from the cost of 1800 yuan from Taobao to buy a variety of iPhone4 accessories from the success of the installation. After reading this news, just want to say to this young man "Too young,too naive". If you are assembling this way, don't buy a house, even eating is a problem.

This industry chain, there are a number of links, here to tell you two of these links.

Recycle phone

I believe we should be familiar with this industry. In the Nokia era, has been full of Chinese streets and alleys, you have nowhere to see him. There is no need to have a shop, perhaps at a junction, or a shop in front of a table, with a piece of paper, above the high price of recycling mobile phone several characters. Of course, when you ask the price, it will certainly not be "high price".

They have a table, a stool, a man, a billboard to start a business. In the Nokia era, when most people are relatively honest, close the phone, if it is bad, repair, and then change a cottage shell, when the new sell. If it is good, then directly change a cottage shell, and then sell out. We are commonly known as refurbished machines.

They are at the very beginning of the industry chain, where they collect old mobile phones in every corner of China and even recycle the layout of their phones to Hong Kong. Because Hong Kong people change the frequency of mobile phones faster, and the general maintenance of mobile phones are better, so the quality is relatively high.

There are two ways to recycle a mobile phone, which is generally serviceable or a good phone, directly refurbished, and then sold out. However, there are some weak phone, if you have to repair, may have to change a lot of places, the cost is very high. These phones will be dismembered, dismembered into various parts, recyclable parts, will be recycled back, can not be recycled there are places to go, this behind said.

In addition to recycling the source of mobile phones, of course stolen mobile phones, will eventually come to the industrial chain, and then be refurbished, or dismembered.

Assembling mobile PHONES

Recycling of mobile phones and theft group has become the source of raw materials, that is, the industrial chain of the beginning, just said above, these powerless mobile phones, was dismembered into various parts, where to go?

This depends on the life of parts, to play a relatively easy to understand the analogy, these mutilated parts, just like the birth of the baby, some life is good, such as the screen is good, not bad, then can go to a lot of places. Can be sold as an original screen, sold online, or sent to repair points. However, life bad, such as the motherboard, also do not know where the bad, in short, is out of the question, may be the font, may be the chip? No one knows, and no one wants to be tested, and they are sold cheaply to assemblers.

These assemblers have lower start-up costs. You just know how to weld, will point circuit principle, understand the market, know what goods, in what place, the price is how much, basically can start a business. Work place? Casual, at home, or by the way to do their own recycling mobile phone owners can also.

They would go to the market to recycle more than 10 discarded iphone motherboards, which cost very little, and dozens of to hundreds. After buying back, repair these discarded motherboards on their own, buy a font to change, or buy a chip to change, or some resistor capacitors, these motherboards are likely to be rescued. 10 motherboards, save half, has been successful profit.

Motherboard saved, the other is good to do, buy a piece of original screen, batteries, and then line what, and then buy a cottage shell, assembled, became a from inside to outside are authentic iphone. Buy a 10-dollar cottage headset line, and a two-dollar data line, you can sell. An iphone 4 set installed, cost hundreds of, seven hundred or eight hundred or so, then sell 1800 or 2000, net profit up to 1000 yuan.

But such assembly machine, generally can not brush the system, that is, the system, you can not upgrade the system, and the general life of only one year.

Why to through the stewardess incident, to the elder sister said such an industrial chain? That is, if these machines explode, don't be surprised. Perhaps, the battery does not give you the original. Ordinary people bought back, is not open to see, and the General people do not know how to dismantle. Once, a friend bought a second-hand iphone, used soon after the bad, take to repair, an open, are moldy, and the loss did not explode.

On the Internet, even if you are a pig, others do not know. Refurbished machine, you do not open, you can not know what is inside, there may be moldy motherboard, may be inferior to the cottage battery.

So be careful if you don't buy it at an Apple store. These assemblers have infiltrated the iphone 4 and 4S, and of course, besides Iphone,android, Samsung has the highest value and can sell a good price.

In these assembly machines, the iphone is more difficult, because you have to have the original motherboard, otherwise you will not be able to pass some of the online testing methods. But Samsung's Android phones are much easier to renovate and cottage. There was an article earlier about the S4 of the super simulation, how far is it? Even Samsung S4 unique screen-free function and eye function, also have.

Under such circumstances, how many people can tell the difference? These shanzhai machines exploded and were normal.

In giving you a brief description of the eco-chain renovation machine, and then to tell us about the problem of cottage accessories.

Ecological chain of cottage Accessories

In the stewardess incident, there are a lot of people will be the reason for the cottage charger, this will not be detailed analysis of the reasons, why the Shanzhai charger will explode, because it is not a brick home, will not give everyone to shoot bricks.

To say an exaggeration point, that is now buy mobile phones, 99% of accessories are cottage. Yes, don't be surprised!

"I bought it in a chain of mobile phone stores!!" How can accessories be fake? ”

"Fake"

"I bought it at a roadside store!!" How can accessories be fake? ”

"Fake"

"I bought it in Jingdong. ”

"Fake"

"I sell it on Taobao, how can accessories be fake?" ”

"Fake"

"I bought it at the operator. ”

"Fake"

"I'm."

"Fake"

Of course not, that's all fake. But if you buy it is true, it will only mean that your life is good, hurry to buy a roast pig worship God! Thank God for buying it for you.

Under what circumstances is it true? It was bought in a direct shop. For example, Apple stores, such as the charm of the direct store, or the official channel of Millet. In addition to official channels, any third-party channels may be false.

You think your packing is not broken, it could be true? You think it's impossible to sell fake in a seemingly secure third party? Young man, Too Young,too naive!

For example, in the supermarket, mobile phone to the first thing, is to dismantle, and then brush the machine, the accessories replaced by a cottage, of course, the premise is more lifelike cottage. Then go to the fingerprint, and put it back intact, even if you check 100 times, can not find the traces of the demolition, perhaps this is ancestral technology.

A mobile phone, to the third party channels, will be brushed, then replace the battery, change the data line, replace the charger, replace the headset, in addition to the chassis, other basic will be for you to replace. Of course, there may be some places, even the shell for you to replace, in this situation, cry. Not darker, only darker.

The iphone is relatively good, because you can not brush the machine, the boot to activate the code, so the general will be the charger and data lines and headphones replaced by the cottage, mobile phone is still new. If it is the iphone 4 or iphone, it will inevitably be refurbished.

Don't think thousands of dollars of Android machine is very advanced, don't think S4 is very sharp, in their eyes, are a lump xiang. You may be scared to death if you get a chance to see their warehouse.

These replaced the original accessories, will be taken out to sell, you know, a cottage charger only a few dollars, the original but sold to dozens of or even hundreds, of which the profits, let these third-party channels drooling. So, if you can buy the original accessories in their hands, then you have to kneel grandpa, thank grandma, buy a roast pig worship God.

99% of mobile phone accessories are Shanzhai, then 1% really where? It was bought in a direct shop, and most of it was true. Why do you say most? If the direct store to you is the packing bag seal good machine, that basically no problem. If the bag is not sealed, you have to be careful.

Because of such a large profit, they will let these third-party channels into the sea. An iphone's original accessories, replaced by cottage accessories, profits as high as hundreds of yuan. An iphone 5 headset, the official price of 228 yuan, cottage a 10 yuan. An iphone data cable, the official price of 149 yuan, the cottage 5 yuan. An iphone charger, the official price of 149 yuan, cottage five dollars a.

You think people sell you at the official price and you don't earn a penny? Do you think that the parallel imports are one hundred or two hundred cheaper than the official, and you don't earn a penny? In fact, you have been sold as a pig, but also to help others count money!

If you are not in the direct shop to buy back the phone, there has been an explosion, it is very normal, it may not be the problem of mobile phones, but the problem of accessories. Never cheap, carefully ruined your youth.

Do you know how hard Apple works?

When everyone is cursing the apple is not innovative, it may be in the silent effort, but most of them do not turn a blind eye. In the latest iOS 7, some people say he is beautiful, some people say ugly, some people say that plagiarism Android. What else can you see besides these?

In the latest iOS 7, if you plug in a fake iphone 5 cable, iphone 5 tells you it's a cottage. A lot of people ignore this feature, but maybe this new hint will save your life.

At present only on the data line will be identified true or false, but if with this hint, follow-up will be able to detect whether the charger is a cottage, headphones whether the cottage, this may be a great function, he may silently, saved your life.

Hope this function, the big Android handset manufacturers can also imitate, such a lift, but for the benefit of everyone.

If you are going to buy a mobile phone next time, it is best to go to the direct shop to buy it! It's hundreds of bucks, but it might save your life.
