It turns out that even if it doesn't make money on mobile phones, Huawei can still shine in other fields.
For example, in the field of 5G equipment that everyone is most familiar with, many people are waiting to see Huawei's jokes. However, as of the first half of this year, Huawei's market "boss" position is still very stable. According to the data, in the first half of the year, Huawei has ranked first in the world with a market share of 35.2%, leaving the "millennium old man" Ericsson far behind - the company's market share is only 21.5%.
While the 5G equipment field has submitted a bright report card, Huawei's business in other fields is also in full swing. Japanese media have recently focused on Huawei's development in the field of "Wi-Fi". Compared with 5G equipment, Hongmeng, Euler and other services, Huawei's Wi-Fi business has received less attention, why has it attracted the attention of the Japanese media?
It turned out that Huawei's "Wi-Fi 6" patent finally ushered in the first overseas order. According to the report, Japanese wireless communication equipment giant Buffalo has obtained Huawei's authorization for the "Wi-Fi 6" patent service.
Compared with "Wi-Fi 5", Huawei's "Wi-Fi 6" has the advantages of higher communication speed and ability to connect multiple terminals, so after The introduction of router devices that support "Wi-Fi 6", Buffalo is expected to gain more advantages compared with competitors' products.
In fact, many domestic companies have reached relevant cooperation agreements with Huawei before, and the agreement with Bafa Network is the first overseas order, so it has also attracted much attention, because it means that Huawei's service has officially gone abroad.
It is reported that Huawei's competitive advantage in this field is not small. According to the data, Huawei already has 122 patents in the field of standard essential patents that are indispensable for Wi-Fi 6 services, accounting for nearly 20% of the total number of patents in this field, second only to Qualcomm, the US giant with the largest number of patents, which has 123 patents.
Finally, do you think Huawei is expected to surpass Qualcomm to become the first in this field?
