#WesternDigital buying #SanDisk is a great move to keep them ahead of #Seagate for a while. Will Seagate buy Samsung or Intel SSD business?
There are 20 #AppleStores in mainland China, 4 in HK. Greater China sells more #iPhones than US. Grey import from HK is insignificant!
It is easy to claim that #AppleWatch is in the same wearable market as #Fitbit. Why did Nike quit the fitness tracker market?
How many flagship phones does #Samsung need? A whole fleet of them, many flags. Urm… What’s flagship again?
You can call #Google a subsidiary, but it is their main money maker.
#Apple didn’t have to release the new #iPodTouch with such top spec to win. That’s just how they keep a few years ahead of the market.
Not saying that #Apple shouldn’t be interested in the auto market, but will they make #iCar anytime soon? Not likely. Look at Tesla’s P/L.
Can #Xiaomi become the first global #InternetOfThings company before the big slow down in mobile handset market in 2015?
#Xiaomi raised $1.1B at $45B valuation. Worth 3 times more than #Lenovo? 2015 will be interesting. Handset market will be so competitive.
New #iPads price range, $249 – $829, #iPhones $649 – $949. Miniaturization costs? Maybe. Smart pricing to what market wants is v.profitable.
Over a year since launch, you hardly see anyone wearing #Smartwatch by #Samsung. In 12 months, you will see some people wear #AppleWatch.
Is #GoPro a fad? Can it really be 4x the market cap of #HTC who just entered into the same market? Are we really go back to such basic cam?
