Where is the gap between a few hundred dollars of millet and more than two thousand vivo?

Xiaomi mobile phones with hundreds of dollars, if not second-hand, can only be Redmi and Red Rice note series, while more than 2,000 vivo are generally close to the quasi-flagship price.

I looked it up on JD.COM. There note 4x 999 boxes of red rice Note and 2998 boxes of vivo X20. The difference of about 2000 yuan is not too big, just the price of a millet 5s.

Second, the gap lies in design.

Maybe you don't know, domestic thousand yuan machines are generally ODM. The combination of these three letters means that after a certain manufacturer comes up with a certain design, it will be seen by other manufacturers, requiring direct OEM or slightly modified OEM. Xiaomi's Redmi series is also a similar product.

Redmi series is the same, because there is a landmark event, that is, the screen of Redmi series is 4.7 except Red Rice note. Later, because the ODM was changed to 5.0, Lei Jun stood up and said that the size of 5.0 is the most suitable, every new book is his best, and the size of every Xiaomi mobile phone is the most suitable for users, so that users have the best experience.

Most of the domestic mobile phones with more than 2000 yuan are already flagship or quasi-flagship, representing their own face. Of course, manufacturers have to design their own, and it is impossible to engage in ODM. If you design it yourself, you should at least design your own characteristics, which is different from others, right?

Here in the mobile phone, the difference is really not for better use, but for giving users more recognition and freshness. Therefore, Nokia will change its shell frequently a long time ago, and the mobile phone in the functional machine era will be very different. Nowadays, mobile phones tend to be modular like computers, so they all look similar, but the flagship of each brand can still see obvious differences in nuances.

Therefore, there must be a gap in design between the Redmi series and vivo. One is to directly change the existing design, and the other is to hire many industrial designers to do the design. If the gap is not big, those industrial designers can be laid off.

Third, the gap lies in workmanship and configuration.

Subject to the cost, the work of the thousand yuan machine is generally rough. For non-important parts such as mobile phone case, it is economical and practical. If plastic can be used, there is no need for metal. If you can use metal, you don't need ceramics. Other aspects are the same, such as the fit between the phone case and the screen. Just so-so

But flagship machine is a face, and there are no flaws, so the workmanship is fine. The industrial design of vivo and oppo is still good, and the quality control is also very good. In terms of workmanship, I am willing to make detailed works because of the large profit margin of the products.

In addition to workmanship, in terms of configuration, the thousand yuan machine is also because of its low cost. Take Red Rice note4x and vivo? X20, although the screen resolution is 1080P, but the materials are different, vivo is obviously better, not to mention the camera, one is ordinary and the other is optical image stabilization.
