Of course, in addition to the decision to completely abandon the field of low-end mobile phones and then specialize in the field of mid-to-high-end mobile phones, and earn 80% of the profits of the entire mobile phone industry.

In this meeting, Motorola also made an important decision.

This decision means that Motorola will follow the example of Nokia 5300 mobile phone and develop a new high-end mobile phone that can compete with Nokia 5300 mobile phone and Sugon S1 mobile phone.

This new high-end mobile phone will directly and boldly abandon most of the buttons and only keep a few buttons, and all other controls will be completed by the resistive screen.

After all, the Nokia 5300 mobile phone has shown the world how easy it is to control a mobile phone through a resistive screen, and also shows the wonderful prospect of controlling a mobile phone through a resistive screen without any buttons.

Under such circumstances, Motorola, which completely abandoned the field of low-end mobile phones and specialized in the field of mid-to-high-end mobile phones, naturally decided to go crazy. If they can succeed, they will be a hit.

In this regard, Lin Chen at this time did not know that Motorola had given up the field of low-end mobile phones, and then wanted to develop a new high-end mobile phone that gave up the keyboard and adopted a full-resistive screen.

If Lin Chen knew, the name of a classic mobile phone would definitely come to mind, and that mobile phone would be the Nokia 5230!

The Nokia 5230 is just the bold work of the Nokia company. The mobile phone directly abandoned the keyboard and adopted a full-resistive screen control.

In the end, the release of this mobile phone successfully stirred up the world and created a terrifying super high sales volume of 150 million units. It is called the last brilliant mobile phone of Nokia.

But at this time, no one knows whether the full-resistive screen mobile phone developed by Motorola can achieve the same result.

After all, the research and development company of the Nokia 5230 mobile phone in the previous life was Nokia, not Motorola.

Of course, Motorola's big move is more than that.

This Motorola company is different from Nokia. Nokia does not have its own mobile phone processor research and development team. The mobile phone chips used by Nokia are mobile phone chips from Texas Instruments and other mobile phone companies.

Nokia Corporation believes in the theory that there is specialization in the industry, and specialization can become the first theory. They don't want to make themselves too bloated, so they don't have their own mobile phone processor research and development team.

But Motorola is different, they are involved in quite a lot of businesses, among which the most profitable chip production business was sold, but they still retained other businesses that were not sold in time.

Among the many reserved businesses, the processor research and development business is undoubtedly Nokia's characteristic business. At the beginning, Motorola's 6800 and 68000 general-purpose processors were world-renowned.

These two general-purpose processors are used in many popular arcade machines, home game consoles, and equipment around the world, which shows the strength of Motorola in the chip design industry.

Moreover, Motorola is also very good at mobile phone chip design. Before that, the performance of Motorola's mobile phone processor was only one point weaker than that of Texas Instruments.

At this time, when preparing to develop a new high-end mobile phone with a full resistive screen, Motorola made a risky decision.

This decision is that they will develop a mobile phone processor with super performance based on the ARM1136J-S processor core that ARM has just released.

This ARM1136J-S processor core is the world's first super mobile phone core developed based on the ARMv6 architecture, which is based on the ARM11 architecture.

The ARM1136J-S core was officially released at the end of 2003, not long before the beginning of 2004.

The ARM1136J-S core is codenamed the ARM11 microarchitecture series, and it is the world's first ARMv6 architecture processor. It is naturally more powerful than the mobile phone chips developed based on the ARM9 and ARM10 microarchitecture.

According to the theoretical data released by ARM, the core frequency of ARM1136J-S can easily reach 330MHz~500MHz, which can easily beat the ARM926 core using OMAP1750 mobile phone processor!

After all, the frequency upper limit of the ARM926 core is only about 220MHz, and it is not easy to reach more than 300MHz. Even if the magic modification reaches 300MHz, it is not worth the loss.

Of course, whether the performance of a mobile phone is powerful or not depends on the frequency, which is an important parameter, but more importantly, it depends on the new technology and chip design.

For example, the pipeline instruction set of the ARM1136J-S core directly reaches 8 levels, which is stronger than the 6-level pipeline of the Phoenix S1 mobile phone processor.

For example, the ARM1136J-S core adopts jump prediction technology, so that the 8-stage pipeline has higher pipeline throughput, such as the enhanced vector floating point unit, and the floating point operation performance is super...

Under these new technologies and chip design, the performance of the ARM1136J-S core is naturally super strong.

As for the function, this ARM1136J-S core supports WiFi Internet access, supports infrared communication, supports high-speed USB transmission, supports 4 million pixels, can use SD I/O devices, etc., and provides Hi-Fi level 3D surround sound effects...

Therefore, the ARM1136J-S core performance and functions are quite strong. If the ARM1136J-S core is used as the basis and the 90nm process technology is used to develop a new mobile phone processor, it can definitely beat the Phoenix S1 mobile phone chip.

Of course, the premise is that the design can be completed. A mobile phone chip from project development to mass production, even if the ARM1136J-S core has been used as the basis for success, it will take at least a year to land.

After all, it took an average of 18 months for Pingguo to develop a new mobile phone processor in the previous life. Even with the ARM1136J-S core design drawings and parameters, Motorola has completed more than half of the work.

But getting the new mobile phone chip into the ground is really not something that can be done in a short period of time. It is normal that it will take about a year.

Therefore, if Motorola's new high-end mobile phone processor is to be released, it is really not something that can be done in a short while, and it will take a long time.

And during this hard time, Motorola could only watch Nokia relying on the 5300 mobile phone to eat meat.

Seeing that Sugon Technology is making a lot of money in the mid-range and low-end mobile phone markets, they can only hold back their big moves and see that they have no choice.

...

Time passed quickly, and when Nokia and Motorola made a decision, the rice mobile phone conference also came to an end. As for the price of the rice mobile phone.

Among them, the price of the low-end Mi A1 mobile phone is 1,099 yuan, and the price of the high-end Mi A1 mobile phone is 200 more expensive, reaching 1,299 yuan.

As for the price of the low-end Mi F1 mobile phone is 1199 yuan, which is 100 yuan more expensive than the Mi A1. As for the high-end price, the high-end Mi F1 mobile phone is priced at 1399 yuan, which is still a cost-effective artifact.

In this way, the press conference ended soon after the price introduction was completed, and the reporters on the scene were also leaving quickly, and they were quickly sending the collected news back to the media headquarters.

Soon domestic and foreign Internet media were the first to report the relevant news.

"The most cost-effective mobile phone in history, why can Mi A1 and Mi F1 mobile phones become cost-effective artifacts?!"

This is the news headline on Penguin Portal.

"Dawn Technology made another big move, and the Mi A1 and Mi F1 mobile phones became a hit."

This is the news headline of the NetEase portal. (end of this chapter)
