Disappointed
that Apple didn’t cover the recently launched Apple iPhone 6 with a Sapphire
Screen?
I
sure knew I was as I’d pined about it for quite awhile, even doing an article
predicting a Sapphire Screen for the Apple iPhone 6 in my blog article
entitled “Apple
iPhone 6 Official Invite sets Tuesday September 9th 2014 - Expect a Gold
Standard 128GB Sapphire Screen with iWatch and NFC Mobile Money and BitCoin
Wallet”.
Then
look no further than Huawei for your Sapphire screen fix with the Huawei Ascend
P7 Sapphire Edition that comes with a Sapphire Screen faceplate as announced in
the article “Huawei
confirms sapphire display for Ascend P7”, published September 4, 2014 6:58
AM PDT by Andrew Hoyle, CNET News and “No
sapphire on your new iPhone? China's Huawei has you covered”, published Wed
Sep 10, 2014 2:20am EDT BY SE YOUNG LEE AND MICHAEL GOLD, Reuters.
Best
of all the Huawei Ascend P7 may be coming to a LIME Store near you in Jamaica!
Huawei experiencing
Global Boom – Reports 26% Growth in shipments for the Third Quarter of 2014
Shenzhen,
China-based Huawei is definitely on a Boom cycle in the Third Quarter of 2014 as
reported by Huawei in a Reuters Interview with Huawei Consumer Business Group
Marketing Executive Shao Yang as reported in the article “Huawei
says third-quarter smartphone shipments jump 26 percent, strong demand for
high-end devices”, published Thu Oct 23, 2014 6:08am EDT BY YIMOU LEE, Reuters.
This
was already evident from their progress in expanding their shipments and market
share from the IDC Stats for the Second Quarter of 2014 as reported in my blog article
entitled “IDC
Stats for Second Quarter of 2014 points to Asian Smartphone Rise – How cheaper
smartphones are slowly killing BOTH Apple and Samsung marketshare”.
Apple
has not fared so well during this Second Quarter of 2014 and their Third
Quarter is not so good either as per the article “Apple
posts solid Q3 profit, but iPhone sales don't wow”, published July 22, 2014
1:42 PM PDT by Shara Tibken, CNET News, albeit the phenomenal sales of the
Apple iPhone 6 and Apple iPhone 6 Plus haven’t been tallied as yet.
Already
word on Wall Street suggests that Samsung’s Third Quarter of 2014 may see a
dizzying 60% drop in Profits as reported in my blog article
entitled “Samsung’s
declares 60% Profit and 20% Sales decline - Tizen OS Response needed as India’s
Diwali may Light a Path in November towards Future Prosperity”.
Their
popular line of smartphone, the Ascend Series, is helping to boost their Global
sales in the Third Quarter with some impressive figures:
1.
26% year on year increase in sales
2.
6.8 million smartphones globally
3.
25% of the number accounted for by
mid-range and high-end smartphones
Overall,
for the First three Quarters of 2014, the outlook is clearly good, making
Huawei a stock to bet o for future growth:
1.
51 million smartphones globally
2.
68% of their 80 million target for the
year 2014
Good
to note that during the Fourth Quarter of 2014:
1.
50% of shipments went to China
2.
Middle East, Africa and Asia-Pacific
recorded the strongest growth
Huawei
expects 80% year-on-year growth in the Fourth Quarter of 2014, being as the
Christmas period is traditional a time when many opt to give a smartphone as a
gift. So a Sapphire screen smartphone look just about right; a precious stone
to cap off what’s already been a successful year for Huawei.
Jamaica
loves Huawei, especially the mid-range JA$4999 Huawei Ascend Y330 sales of
which exploded over the Summer of 2014 for Telecom Provider LIME as chronicled
in my blog
article entitled “JA$4999
Huawei Ascend Y330 vs JA$7599 Digicel DL700 Game of Phones - Tablets to drop on Emancipation and
Independence Day in a Game of Phones”.
