In the new mobile phone market in 2021, iQOO surpassed Redmi with 22.02% and won the first place. As a sub-brand of vivo, the proportion is far more than that of the parent company. iQOO mobile phone has been taking the cost-effective route, the pricing is much lower than the same configuration flagship, aiming at the game mobile phone market, the imaging, game field product line are paved. At the same time, it can also take into account the appearance value and pay attention to the design of young elements, which is highly respected by young people.
The same positioning as iQOO is oppo's sub-brand realme, the same cost performance, young positioning, but realme's product line in the design and configuration, there is still a lot of room for improvement, accounting for 13.95%. Redmi takes the extreme cost-effective route, keen to be a variety of welding doormen, under this concept, the extremely high cost performance has also captured many users.
Compared with the market share in 2020, an interesting phenomenon can be found.

Horn tip mobile phone high temperature peak list: Meizu 18 is very "feverish"
The data comes from the 2021 mobile phone temperature value of Lu Master Data Center, and only selects new machines listed within one year.

Meizu 18 mainly plays a small screen that is light and thin, and has been greatly narrowed in size and weight. In order to control the weight and size of the fuselage, only a small area of VC heat dissipation vaporizer board was used, and the heat was conducted by the back cover, coupled with the high power consumption of the Snapdragon 888 itself, which became the annual "fever" mobile phone.
The temperature remains high in the Xiaomi 11 series, redmi K40 series and flagship models or game phones such as Black Shark and Lenovo Savior, looking at the list, most of the high-temperature models on the list are mobile phones equipped with Snapdragon 888 processors, and the heat dissipation design of mobile phone manufacturers is not in place.
2021 is a year full of smoke for the mobile phone market, the traditional "Huami OV" pattern has been broken, replaced by the emergence of various game phones and sub-brands of the scuffle, OV Millet has become a three-legged trend of their own impact on the high-end, redmi, iQOO, realme for sales competition, and therefore we can see such excellent mobile phones and domestic UI as Xiaomi 12 Pro, ROG 5s Pro, ColorOS appear.
In terms of innovation, the folding screen is more mature, and there are also new machines with off-screen lenses. Head brands have invested in the intelligent ecosystem, starting from mobile phones, computers, notebooks, and watches, to create their own ecological closed loop. After Huawei, everyone also recognized the importance of self-developed chips and mastering core technologies, and a large number of self-developed small chips appeared, opening the era of one machine and two cores. The mobile phone market in 2022 will also reshape the market, the Internet of Everything and self-research and innovation around these keywords, so let's wait and see.
