Smart device start-up began to focus on enterprise networking

Technology companies have been promoting the benefits of smart devices, these products are able to sense the environment, input, and feedback the results to humans or other equipment. Today, Samsara Networks prove how this concept would evolve.

The San Francisco startup company will display their products on Tuesday, they plan to help customers in warehouses, factories and hospitals to monitor a variety of activities and the surrounding environment. Samsara has attracted a lot of attention because the founder of the company ever founded a startup Meraki wireless communication, 2012 after selling for $ 1.2 billion to Cisco. Another unique factor is money: the company from prominent venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz has received $ 25 million in financing.

Samsara's announcement reflects a wide swath of Internet business. Early Internet businesses focused on fitness bracelets and children's consumer products such as monitors, but more and more companies are starting to use Internet technologies to solve business problems, including Building Robotics, Electric Imp, Helium and Meshify Systems. As with Samsara, these businesses through the integration of hardware, software and Internet services into this market.

"We attach great importance to this market, can be engaged in something that would have a significant impact on business. "Samsara financier Marc Andreessen (Marc Andreessen) said.



Andreessen Horowitz investment institutions isn't the only bet on the field. According to the United States venture capital research firm CB Insights November this year measured from 2010 to the end of September this year, 887 IOT related financing transactions, totalling more than $ 7.4 billion.

They are seeking a substantial high growth opportunities. United States market-research firm Gartner expects Internet professional services spending this year alone will reach $ 17.8 billion in 2014, representing a growth of 22%.

Established companies in the Internet field and entrepreneurial companies to maintain the same activity. Includes Intel, Microsoft, Qualcomm, Cisco, General Electric and IBM.

The sensor and surveillance systems is not new, many companies in mining, utilities and oil exploration industries have deployed similar technology.

However, Samsara and co-founder sajite·bisiwosi (Sanjit Biswas) said the deployment of such systems cost very high, could reach 50,000 to millions of dollars. In addition to the costs of purchasing hardware and sensors (hardware that often need wiring), companies also need to hire engineers to design and operate these networks.

Samsara products contain can track temperature, humidity, vibration and position sensors, over a wireless network connected to the gateway device, sensor data transmitted through the Internet. Gateway can access Wi-Fi or cellular network--Samsara has been with 150 countries or operators in the area of cooperation. Sensor data can be transferred to the Samsara's cloud, allowing users to monitor and manage their networks.

Voss said, these data can be used to track the convoy, monitoring shipping in the product if there are any abnormal vibration, and keep an eye on energy consumption.

Samsara hardware fee: US $ 99-499, per device using software and services every year to pay some of the costs. The company said, to build a monitor pump system needs about $ 43,000, use 50 gateway devices and 50 sensors. Voss, estimated that cost of using traditional methods of building this type of system is probably a figure of 5 times to 10 times.

Another San Francisco startup Rival Helium Systems product plans were also announced in October of this year. Similar to the Samsara, the company also developed their own wireless technologies, and provides sensors and cloud-computing services, specialized monitoring hospitals and commercial refrigeration equipment – the latter needs to ensure that the temperature does not drop to an unsafe level.

Founded by Shawn Fanning (Shawn Fanning) co-founder, who had also founded the music-sharing service Napster. President and COO of the company Luobu·qiandehuoke (Rob Chandhok) former Qualcomm Executive. Helium has been by Khosla Ventures and Salesforce.com CEO make·benniaofu (Marc Benioff) and other investors to raise $ 16 million.

Voss was not worried about the competition. While the market is crowded, but he and other Internet entrepreneurs are considered, the capacity of the market to support the common development of multiple vendors.

Samsung Galaxy S7 exposure larger screen for more information

Samsung will launch in February next year a new generation flagship Galaxy S7, and now foreign media take the lead in exposing its shape and body size, which remained two models.

Galaxy S7 production early protector of merchants, first released the body data, the measurements are 143.37x70.8x6.94mm, and Galaxy S6 doesn't make any difference now, and a new screen version of the S7 Plus machine is a surface, Volume 163.32x82.01x7.82mm of the fuselage, and equipped with 6-inch Mega 2 are very similar, it is also up to 6 inches. In addition, the protection from exposure, Galaxy and Galaxy S6 S7 overall design is similar, but there are still some adjustments, such as Home-styling from the rounded rectangle change Strip, USB Type-C interface is not used, the camera still raised.

Galaxy S7 Plus shape, except for screen sizes larger than S6 Edge+, a SIM card slot was moved to the side of the fuselage (S6 Edge of the SIM card slot is designed on top of the fuselage), the Home key for long.

From the perspective of the configuration parameters have been exposed before, Galaxy S7 line version will be powered by mycophenolate mofetil 820 processor, built-in 4GB memory, built-in 20 million pixel camera, and Samsung are also solve the problem of UFS2.0 not compatible with memory card expansion.

GS6 design praised by users, Samsung in the GS7 also follows the style of such screen screen size large + surface + strong configuration is still their magic weapon to kill iPhone 7, but do not forget the apples this year, but the redesigned next-generation iPhone. Apple on the iPhone for two years designing habit, Samsung seems to copy it over.

Now, Korea electronic times given news that Galaxy in design compared to Galalxy on S6 S7 will not be much change, so-called all-metal version before, are unlikely, as Samsung in order to cut costs.

Mentioned in the report, Galaxy S7 will still have more than one version, was consistent with the S6, the Edge series with double-curved screen, its 5.7 inches screen version. As for the release of Samsung internal sources, will be released a day before the opening of the MWC in February next year, and subsequently appeared at the show.

Configuration, Samsung Galaxy S7 will be 5.2-inch and 5.7-inch versions available, including licensed on-board processor for the Xiao long 820, as for the camera is that it's a big black technology, it is equipped with Samsung BRITECELL camera module.

BRITECELL camera module is a major leap in the mobile camera technology, first of all, thickness is thinner than the existing 17% of the fuselage, so no need to worry about phone camera projection, another important point is that the module replaced the green pixels with white, greatly increasing the light under low light conditions, such performance is bound to continue leading iPhone 6 s.

News on next-generation flagship Samsung mobile Galaxy S7 has been exposed many times, but the exposure information is focused on the core configuration, design is rarely mentioned. According to the latest news, Samsung Galaxy S7 will introduce a version of a surface, and Simian Qu Bing, will adopt a new design. Worth mentioning is that the sources through a set of video shows us the so-called Simian Qu Bing design. (From the network illustrated in this paper) According to the sources, Samsung Galaxy S7 print edition will be equipped with a 5.2-inch flat screen, screen version will be powered by a 5.7-inch surface and surfaces, other than and in addition to left and right sides of the screen, it is curved on the top and bottom. Subsequently, the source through a set of video shows us the so-called "four Qu bing" design, the screenshot from the exposure, which are normally around the screen displays a message. Use the sources to describe it, "bent like drops of water glass, text messaging can walk on four sides of the screen cycles. ” It is worth mentioning that, screenshots of exposure in Samsung Galaxy S7 still seems to retain traditional handset design, I do not know in this case, Samsung will be implemented by means of the so-called "four Qu bing" design. Of course, since the message comes out suddenly, temporarily unable to verify its accuracy.

According to a previous message, Samsung Galaxy S7 will launch more than one processor version, this version including high with carrying Exynos 8890, mycophenolate mofetil and carrying 820 processor Standard Edition, as well as carrying Exynos 7420 processors with low. Combining the latest exposure of information, "Qu Bing on all sides" should be designed to be attached to high with carrying Exynos 8890 processor version of the S7.

Worth mentioning is that Samsung has announced Exynos 8890 processor production, and high-throughput is almost at the same time announced Xiao long 820 production news. In accordance with a previous exposure, Samsung S7 will most likely be released officially in January 2016, we will also further the message tracking report for the machine, so stay tuned! Samsung Galaxy S7 has exposed a series of "international registration", with 2015 Galaxy S6 system products using their own Exynos 7420 SoC difference is, Galaxy S7 series will be back on "double version" of old. It is reported that the opportunities in international unlocked version (SM-G930F/SM-G935F), T-Mobile (SM-G930T/SM-G935T), AT&T (SM-G930A/SM-G935A), Canada (SM-G930W8/SM-G935W8), and Korean (SM-G930 S/K/L and SM-G935 S/K/L) models using their own Exynos 88,908 core chips.



State line (SM-G9300/SM-G9350), Verizon (SM-G930V/SM-G935V), the Sprint version (SM-G930P/SM-G935P), as well as the US Cellular version (SM-G930R4/SM-G935R4), you will be equipped with 820 Gao Tongxiao Dragon SoC's version. SM-G930 the basis of identification for Galaxy S7, while SM-G935 refers to the Galaxy S7-Edge.

As for Samsung, why suddenly "retro" (compared with the 2015 Galaxy S6/S6 Edge), we speculated it may have been found a way to use high-throughput platform to continue to reduce costs.

Or, because of interest considerations, Samsung think this year there is no need to set off another wave of climax of the Exynos release. Just how small the difference between the two versions, but please be patient and wait for it to come.

Leading the new revolutionary Apple iPhone7 canceling headset interface

Recently, Apple's next generation iPhone will cancel the traditional 3.5mm headphone news spread in the industry, suddenly become a hot topic. On the reasons for canceling headphone jack is different, one of the most focused way of saying this is to continue to reduce the thickness of the fuselage, use integrated lighting interface, thus making the iPhone7 history thin iPhone. Today, this analysis, is it true that Apple may cancel the headphone jack? History of Apple's streamlined interface

Apple has always been known as a Maverick, the pursuit of perfection, streamlining the product interface is not the first time. Apple's future direction will be multiple interface function integration in as little as possible on Apple devices using open interfaces, interface functionality in one interface.

This already has been on Apple's new MacBook. In the first half of this year on the new Apple MacBook, many netizens were surprised to find that the fact, that is apart from the headphone jack it is only an Type-C interface.

Type-C Universal USB Type-C interface, the USB interface is a new form, along with the latest USB3.1 turned out, starting with the announcement it has been almost a year now. After all, it is an USB interface, functionality, because USB3.1 the upgrading of the specifications, the actual transfer of the new interface has also been significantly improved performance, theoretical maximum transfer rate of up to 5Gbps, converted to MB/s that we used is 625MB/s, a staggering number! Meanwhile, Type-C a staggering 100W of power, in a current mainstream laptop 65W power supply power, interface can be used as power supply for the equipment.

An interface can function as a USB, video out and power of so many interfaces, Type-C interface, it seems, and apples to the altar. Although the interface Apple products are not the first, but had to admit that, dip the apples can quickly be known, a standard interface and Apple does have the ability to further promotion. Waterproof iPhone demand

Long time, iPhone and waterproof, shatter-resistant which seems to have no intersection. IPhone's "precious" has also been criticized by the user, but at the latest on Apple's flagship iPhone 6s, many people find that already have a certain degree of waterproofing measures, even foreign netizens had experimented, 6s, soaked in water 30 minutes after the fish is still in use, it is enough to see Apple waterproof performance in mind.

Waterproof is preventing water from entering the inside of the phone, while the phone's headphone jack and speaker hole is the focus of waterproof. Earlier, the United States Patent and Trademark Office published a patent application submitted by the Apple file, file is a kind of active lines will be trapped in the narrow, confined space water discharge methods. Patents also shows that the waterproof technology in the headphone jack set a sensor, when monitoring currents into the headphone hole, the device will use electrodes, moisture in the headphone jack out. Drainage method of the speaker hole to join a similar mechanism, except that the speaker is the use of ultrasonic vibration to flow out.

It can be seen that Apple really want to fuss in your phone waterproof performance, also rumoured iPhone until 7 may support the waterproof function, in view of the above patent is still in the idea phase, rather than simply point a headphone jack may mean reduction in waterproof performance easier to meet Apple's requirements, while at the same time production costs will be reduced.

Powerful Lighting interface

Lighting, formerly known as Apple Maverick 30pin interface, 30pin interface though is larger, but it has a charging and high-speed data transmission, audio output, control function, while in the nine years the evolution of Apple added HD video output, photo OTG function, let Apple interface much more than Micro-USB. But the traditional 30-pin interface is also gradually fell behind, one of the most important drawback is that takes up a lot of space.

Apple opened the iPhone 5 New 8pin Lighting interface. In short, Apple Lighting interface has three major characteristics. The first is to reduce the volume, Lighting the pros and cons of 8 contacts on each side, each touch-point functions are defined by the digital chip, greatly narrowing the space at the bottom. The second feature is the two sides all-purpose, regardless of positive and negative, so that it can be easy to use. The third feature is the new interface, and there is a small notch next to the contact, radian's low and easy to clean. Overall, in terms of structure design and lighting interface leading to the Type-C interface mentioned above.



It is regrettable that, Lightning interface there is also a disadvantage does not support analog audio output, Lighting interface only supports digital signal output, if you want to cancel the headphone jack, use Lighting interface to listen to the song, now needs an external a/d converter. However, there is no need to have too many concerns about the shortcomings, there are blessings of Bluetooth technology. Currently, iPhone 6s maximum supported Bluetooth version 4.2, in case of continued to reduce power consumption, increase the data rate was 2.5 times, while reducing the transmission error rate, power and transmission speed is fully able to meet the needs of a person.

Summary

Will iPhone 7 canceling headphone, now is still unknown. But what is certain is, with features such as wireless communication, Wireless charging promotion and popularization of wired peripherals on the mobile devices of the future will be less and less, corresponding interface will be less and less, even iPhone fuselage will be no interface exists in the future.

IDC: enterprise marketing and mixing equipment PC market shot

According to technology website TechRadar reports, compared to the phone and Tablet market with a booming, PC markets were truly miserable hide. IDC expects PC sales will continue to decline in the fourth quarter of this year, but the enterprise market for tidal and listing of new hybrid PC will inject a shot for the PC market.

In products such as mobile phones and Tablet sales grow red, a peaceful climate at the same time, PC market has had a pretty miserable. According to the latest IDC data showed fourth quarter decline in sales in the PC market remains inescapable fate.

IDC expects PC shipments in the fourth quarter of this year is likely to fall by 10%, 2015 PC market shrank by $ 10.3% for the year and, in addition, weak PC demand will continue early next year. But at the end of the year 2016, PC market will usher in a small climax, for companies to market replacement will be concentrated at that time.

IDC said: "as the Windows 10 per cent increase, coupled with the aging of many computers, we expect business users at the end of 2016 concentrates on larger purchases. This situation also happened in 2014, when Windows 7 instead of the once-flourishing Windows XP. ”

Weak sales 2015

This year's PC sales decline for many reasons, such as a stronger dollar, lower merchandise margins and higher inventories. In addition, Smartphone and Tablet's best selling has had a huge impact on traditional PC, but the IDC remained optimistic about the performance of the PC market in the future.



IDC's PC market Director, Lauren said: "Although the Smartphone and tablet devices have been integrated into our lives, but it did not completely give up PC, only reduce replacement frequency. ”

Given the weakness of consumer demand, PC makers will focus on enterprise and education markets in the future. In addition, the Windows of 10 may also be one of the important causes of weak PC sales. Previously, Windows operating systems have always been the charging policy, consumers are more willing to purchase a new PC, but this year is different, Windows 10-free policy is adopted, many consumers simply upgraded.

However, because Windows 10 optimization of new equipment have been strengthened, such as the two in one portable PC, so the mixing equipment sales is bullish. Although that could further erode the viability of traditional PC, but the PC market remained a major cause for optimism for the future.

A patent fight to Apple a lot of secrets exposed

Apple and Samsung patent war starting from 2011, and more recently Korea Samsung finally agrees to pay Apple $ 548 million (about 3.51 billion yuan), paying for infringing Apple's patents and designs. The cause of the awards are still Samsung infringed Apple's patent, was a copy of Apple's iPhone design. In May last year United States court damages decreased from us $ 930 million to $ 548 million. Other proceedings connected with infringement of Samsung products will be heard beginning next spring.

This patent lawsuit after several hearings, witnesses took turns on stage Apple and Samsung, Apple to prove infringement of Samsung, Samsung felt that Apple's complaint is not valid, now everything is clear. Witnesses in the process, we also know that some Apple would not normally open secrets.

Stunning iPhone prototype


Undoubtedly this exposure of secrets in patent battle, is the most Quotable iPhone prototype. Such as the following eight-iPhone.

This is one of the first iPhone prototype, the status bar indicates the signal strength of a small white spot on. Many icons are based on corresponding applications in the OS x system icon design. In the Home, we also see a "Menu". IPhone is how to start?

Early preparation and software


Sikete·fusite was in charge of iPhone team, jobs from within the company allowed him to any team and the Department deployed additional staff to enter the iPhone team. But he also told foster, outside the company who do not have to consider.

Foster, redeploying staff can't even tell them, what does he need them to be responsible for the project. He can only say, if you choose to join, then they would have to "keep working hard for several years, to give up evenings and weekends the rest of the time. "He is very direct and tell them:" If you choose this role, you will have to work harder than before. ”

Apple to "Project Purple" named for the iPhone project, the development work is done in a separate building, it all became foster's dormitory. "There's always someone, is full of pizza flavor. ”

Security level almost to the point of fly can't get. Building that is full of cameras and card machines, staff has to produce documents before entering the important development area, 5-6.

Original iPhone development team posted on the wall in a "Fight Club" poster and Project Purple project, whose article is not talking about any Project related to the Purple thing.

Foster development of a generation of the iOS interface very much, he spent several years in it.

Foster said the reading text on a page need to pinch zoom, he can't stand this operation, so came up with double-click Zoom feature.

2012 Apple iPhone Panel for 2000 in the number of people now may have more.

In addition to software, the suit also makes us aware of Apple's industrial design team. Apple designers kelisiduofu·sitelinge (Christopher Stringer) to testify will say a lot of interesting information.

Hardware and industrial design


When iPhone project's industrial design team, a total of 16 people, they're very crazy, there is only one common goal--to imagine a unprecedented products, used to guide them. Apple's industrial design team work closely, often exchanging ideas and sketches on current and future products. Stringer said the Panel members for feedback on proposed design is usually very cruel but also very real.

Iterative process is very long and, in some cases, a simple design elements might have 50 different models.

Apple's industrial design team and technical staff in close cooperation. How problems with the different designs and effects, such as drop tests of durability, technical feedback to design teams in these areas.

Early iPad prototypes have support bars


Stringer testified in court in the course of said generation almost with two curved glass on the iPhone, but in the end they give up this design, because of the limited technology at that time, after all, the iPhone is to mass production, according to the specifications of Apple to cut the glass, cost is very high. But Apple iPhone prototype surfaces.

Apple several years ago to focus on the automotive industry

Apple Executive Phil Schiller said when testifying, built upon the success of the iPod, Apple brainstorm product ideas to encourage employees to think Apple is very open in this regard.

"Following the success of the iPod, we begin to discover what they should be doing. If we can develop the iPod, that what we are able to develop products. "Recommendations of the staff has talked about professional cameras, cars, and other all kinds of crazy stuff. It is interesting, Tuoni·fadeer said not long ago, in 2008, when he and Steve Jobs talks about Apple Car should look.

How Apple keeps iOS closed source


Before the trial started in 2013, Apple and Samsung, Apple Vice President Henri Lamiraux in order not to open iOS iOS engineering parts of the source code, and submitted a statement to the Court, which reads as follows:

Apple, Apple source code access is the highest level of security protection. IOS source code of physical access is limited to authorized employees, and their code is only part of notes. Staff directly involved in software development, management, and security access. These employees also need to obtain management approval, authorized employees, they have authorized access to special account.

Apple to Samsung's "The next big thing is already here" hated advertising


Have Samsung like laughing at Apple and Apple in their own ads. Open a message in this lawsuit shows that Phil Schiller actually very dissatisfied with the company of Samsung's behavior, and he even suggested he change the advertising agency.

After 2013, Samsung ads, Schiller's TBWA\CHIAT\DAY advertising yourself contact sent a message, asking them to make a big change, and quickly.

Apple iPhone every month market research needs


Jobs said Apple will not be conducting market research, it is not so. In the lawsuit at Apple and Samsung, Apple iPhone and iOS Vice President of product marketing, Joswiak said Apple users in multiple countries every month.

These investigations enable Joswiak said Apple understands that in different countries is what drives consumer choice of Apple's iPhone, but not for other products, like Samsung Android device sold, they are the most commonly used features, users of statistical information, as well as their satisfaction with different aspects of the iPhone.

These surveys really has helped Apple has been able to learn in a variety of countries, consumers will tend to choose the iPhone because of which details properties.

Funny this is Apple market research is strictly confidential, and is usually only a small part of Apple's top executives to learn the results of the market survey

Joswiak said, "without my permission, any iPhone or iPad-related investigations are not able to open outside of the group. I don't usually allow relevant personnel to disclose such information. If I agree with public information about market research, then this information is basically interactive research, but such information is only exposed in the staff who need to know. ”

Steve Jobs think iPhone and Android war is a holy war


Steve jobs once said that he was willing to spend Apple's billions of dollars of cash reserves to launch Android "thermonuclear" and the other in October 2010, in a message, jobs also noted that 2011 will launch a holy war to Google. Message was sent 6 months after Apple is suing Samsung over the Court.

Apple's product roadmap is well thought out in advance


Also in his message that he already spoke about LTE support and iPhone 5 hardware problem, the time the email is in October 2010, and the iPhone 5 is released in 2012, exactly two years earlier. Jobs also mentioned the iPad 2 to be published to keep ahead of your competitors ' strengths.

Google Gmail users moving to Inbox

If you have not used the Inbox, it is Google's official Gmail Mobile/Web client development, Material Design style, a to do list for logic, integrates Google's machine learning capabilities to help users better handle mail.

If you're not using Gmail, it's a ... ... The global market share, but mail service temporarily unavailable in mainland China.

Discovered and pointed out that Gmail users, Google is experimenting with migrating Gmail users to their launch in October last year of the new Inbox mail service by Gmail (the Inbox). Forbes reported the situation.

According to the feedback, when users log on to Gmail (Gmail.com domain names) when mail interface will have a "go to Inbox" message, as shown below. Does this imply that Google think Inbox is can be used as a substitute, replacing has online operations 11 years ago, for 900 million users with Gmail mail service (product)?

No matter what the Gmail team deep thought, now in Inbox While Rob Gmail's thunder, but user has its own right to decide. Setting options in the Inbox, users can still choose to visit Gmail.com not jump to Inbox.google.com.



Inbox only for individual Gmail users, the first to invite registration open, then open registration. Earlier this year, Inbox also supports the use of Google Apps enterprise users, enterprise domain mailbox can use.

Gmail is all accounts system based service owned by Google, the first Google search for one of the most important Internet service, and users rely on very high level. Inbox is the Google machine learning technique and ability to integrate into the core product as an example of the birth of the product, it can automatically group messages in a user's mailbox, tickets, meeting schedules, invoices, receipts and other information extracted separately, optimum display effect, improve the efficiency of user messages are processed.

Therefore, regardless of Google Gmail as a whole eventually migrated to the Inbox or not migrated--this decision making, care must be taken care of ... ...

Email industry today surprisingly busy, on the same day, Dropbox announced that it would close its popular e-mail client Mailbox, on the grounds that "focuses on the collaborative".

Apple iPhone 4 inches or next year for fall

Apple's latest iPhone 4-inch color metal not in 2016 issued in the first half. Rosenblatt securities analyst Zhang said the latest entry-level iPhone started production until the third quarter of next year at the earliest. He called the low-cost mobile phone iPhone 7C, which implies that it launches next fall with iPhone, 71.

Other analysts put the rumors of getting started with iPhone called the iPhone 6C, it would be vested in existing iPhone 6 products. The small screens of smartphones will replace iPhone 5C, which has a series of Candy-colored plastic enclosure, as well as the high-end iPhone 5S.

KGI securities last week (KGI Securities) analyst Guo Mingchi (Ming-Chi Kuo) predicting the new iPhone may be released in early 2016. "We do not believe that before the third quarter of 2016, Apple will start for the iPhone 7C began to manufacture a 4-inch screen, because we have not seen any model of the new 4-inch phone accessories orders issued. "Zhang said. "So until at least 2016 will have iPhone 7 c component at the end of the second quarter news. ”

Some analysts question whether interim releases of the new 4-inch iPhone will help promote the sales of Apple's smart phone, especially sales encouraging iPhone6 compared with last year. Apple shares depressed, mainly due to fear from Apple's yearly unit sales for the quarter will begin to decline. 4.x or 5.x-inch Smartphone is now becoming mainstream, people who want to return to the classic is not, but the number may be relatively limited.

Recently on news of the new Apple 4 inch with all that media on a released product for such a large-scale campaign, and Apple has not refuted, we did have the chance to see such a product next year. Now we want to know, in a 4.7-inch iPhone 6/6s and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 Plus/6s Plus a devastating epidemic of today, Apple launch 4-inch model and how much market? This is a problem of concern to many people, especially those who eat relies on forecasts of analysts. However, analysts were 4 inches before the new iPhone to predict future market, have been given their views. Wei Feng network news, recently some of foreign science and technology commentator on iPhone 4 inch is forecasted, they think of this model is really able to show its charm, but attracted to female consumers, not too interested in men.
