The third quarter financial report that was just released at the end of July shows that Apple’s revenue and profits have both declined. In Greater China, in particular, revenue in the third quarter was only US$8.848 billion, which was a 33% drop from the previous year's US$13.23 billion. The latest data released by market research company Kantar Worldpanel yesterday seems to confirm the reality of Apple's desperation in China.
According to data released by Kantar Company yesterday, in the second quarter of this year, Apple’s market share in China was only 17.9%, down 1.8 percentage points year-on-year. In contrast, Huawei’s market share in China is 25.7%, while millet is 18.5%, which is higher than that of Apple.
In April this year, Kantar has released similar news. The news at the time stated that from February 2015 to February 2016, Apple’s share of smartphone sales in the Chinese market fell for the first time since 2014. Its market share was only 22.2%, down 3.2% year-on-year, while Huawei's share in China reached 24.4%, which is higher than that of Apple.
Kantar blames the rise of China's smart phone manufacturers for the main reason for the decline in iOS market share. Tamsin Timpson, director of strategic analysis at the company, said: “The iPhone 6s and 6s Plus are still the best-selling smart phones in the Chinese market, but competition from Huawei’s Mate 8 and P9, Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and Xiaomi 5, and Oppo R7 are increasingly competitive. Due to the limited availability of the iPhone SE, its market influence has failed to meet expectations. In the second quarter, iPhone SE’s sales in the Chinese market accounted for only 2.5%.â€
Kantar believes that if Apple can solve the iPhone SE supply problem, it believes its market share in China will increase. Kantar's data also shows that currently 49% of U.S. iPhone users and 51% of Chinese iPhone users still use iPhone 5s or older models, and with the release of the new iPhone next month, they may be able to promote the replacement of old users. iOS's market share is likely to rebound.
Compared to the downturn in the Chinese market, the iPhone has begun to recover in the United States and Europe. According to Kantar’s data, iOS’s US market share increased by 1.3 percentage points to 31.8% in the second quarter. The European market share increased to 18.2%.

Dual-band WiFi module refers to the WiFi module that supports both 2.4GHZ and 5GHz bands. The dual-band WiFi module can operate in the 5Ghz band, which is much cleaner and can easily avoid interfering with each other. The advantage of 2.4G is that it has good ability to penetrate the wall, and the disadvantage is that it is easy to be disturbed. The advantages of 5G are strong anti-interference ability, wide band width, high throughput rate, and strong scalability, but the disadvantage is that 5G is only suitable for indoor small-range coverage and outdoor bridge, and the attenuation effect of various obstacles on it is much larger than 2.4g.
Dual-band WiFi module has a stronger and more stable Wifi wireless signal, higher transmission speed, and can make wireless devices more power-saving, to meet the future high-definition and big data wireless transmission needs.
When selecting a dual-frequency WiFi module, we should pay attention to these parameters of the WiFi module: size, package, frequency range, data rate, transmission rate, transmission distance, communication interface, power supply voltage, antenna interface, etc.
Dual frequency WiFi module can well meet the functional needs of users, increase the competitiveness of the product, while the WiFi module is easy to use, can shorten the user product development cycle, speed up the product market! Users can make choices according to actual needs!
Choosing a dual-band WiFi module may need to pay attention to the following points:
(1) Consider the transmission power of the dual-frequency WiFi module
The transmitting power of the WIFI module is generally about 18dBm, and the transmitting power of the high-power WIFI module is about 28dBm.
(2) Transmission rate
Consider whether the dual-band WiFi module supports MIMO technology (that is, allows multiple antennas to send and receive multiple spatial streams simultaneously)
(3) Consider the application interface that dual-band WiFi modules can provide, which is also very important.
(4) According to the requirements of the application scenario to choose the dual-band WiFi module, not the higher the configuration, the better, the application is good, excess waste!
