Earlier today, Honor’sĀ vice president Xiong Junmi took a jab at Xiaomi by saying that theĀ “Honor V20 does not rely on a battle slogan (the internal name of Xiaomi Mi 9 is “Battle Angel”) but uses hardcore technology to lead the development of the mobile phone industry. He added the Honor V20 on-screen camera, ToF deep-sensing lens, Link Turbo, cloud computer and other technologies have pioneered technology and become the industry benchmark…”. Although Honor took a swipe at Xiaomi, it was the company’s sub-brand, Redmi, that responded.
Gizchina News of the week
Lu Weibing, vice president of Xiaomi Group and general manager of the Redmi brand, said that theĀ ToF technology paraded by some brands is a gimmick that is used to deceiveĀ users to spend money. He added that there have been products with ToF (note thatĀ OPPO R17 Pro is the world’s first mobile phone equipped with a ToF lens), how are they the first to use this marketing gimmick?
When the Redmi sub-brand gained its independence, many speculated that this brand is positioned to compete with Honor However, Honor is trying to place itself at par with Xiaomi and not Redmi. Nevertheless, Xiaomi refused to mix issues with Honor (which they perceiveĀ to be smaller) rather, its sub-brand decided to accept the dig.
Honor is in no way in the same league with Xiaomi. They should be competing with Redmi instead.
Simply check their product sales….Honor normally released the same Kirin high end chip with cheaper price while Redmi series don’t use any high end chip…Honor sales alone is above Xiaomi and all of the Honor low and midrange Phones sell more than any Redmi series so this argument is baseless……I give it to Honor !!!
