Dear MEL School’s Topic Readers,
China software to
rival Android, iOS.
What do you care
the most when it comes to choosing a smartphone or tablet PC besides the price?
There are many determining factors like physical appeals such as the size, weight,
thickness or design, and functional advantages like processing speed, features
and connectivity.
What about the brand,
manufacturer or the country of origin? How much to you care who makes the
underlying operating system of the device when you buy a new phone?
Currently, eight
out of ten smartphones sold these days are equipped with Google’s Android OS
while around one or two come with Apple’s iOS. Those who buy Android OS seem to
be less loyal to the OS while iPhone or iPad users have strong attachment to
the brand, design and operating system.
Will Chinese
people pay attention and make decisions when they choose a smartphones or
tablet PC based on the origin or the name of the operating system?
One thing for sure
is that China is surely aiming seriously and investing a lot to be less
dependent on or more competitive in the U.S. dominated technologies and
influences such as Global Positioning System, or G.P.S., missile defense system
and naval powers including aircraft carriers. And now the operating system for
mobile devices.
Enjoy reading and guessing
what the future of the mobile operating system might be in China.
