Set micro-grid February 1 reported
As iPhone8 / iPhone8 Plus and iPhone X make wireless charging standard as the standard, as the industry benchmark iPhone, will lead the wireless charging into a smart phone innovation into a new round of 'tuyere', wireless charging market is in the prelude to the outbreak. Benefit will undoubtedly be wireless charging supply chain vendors.
Recently, some investors asked Lixun Precision on an interactive platform. The brokerage analyst pointed out that the company received an order from Apple Wireless. The market for this order is 2.4 billion in 2018. Is it 500 million U.S. dollars in 2019? Why did not disclose?
Rising News officials did not directly answer, but did not deny the news.Officially said the company has to provide a variety of consumer electronic wireless charging solutions capabilities.In addition, the company fully respect the investor's right to know, but also respect the basic business Contract spirit, the company has been in strict compliance with relevant laws and regulations to actively fulfill the obligation of information disclosure, there is no need to disclose undisclosed information.
At present, in addition to Apple, Jinli M7 Plus, the flagship model of high-end business released by Jinli in November last year, has been equipped with a wireless fast charging function with a charging power of up to 10W.
According to the information currently held by WeChat, this year domestic mobile phone manufacturers will also be equipped with wireless charging capabilities on high-end machines, including millet 7 and OPPO next-generation models.
December 29 last year, Shanghai Dragon flag Technology Co., Ltd. official WeChat public number revealed that the millet wireless charging aspects of the message that the millet 7 wireless charging module has been trial production, the fire before the Spring Festival will be fully open Millet 7 to determine the wireless charging, generous in the supply chain, with Apple wireless charger common foundry.According to past practice, millet 7 release is expected in March-April.Xiamen officially joined the WPC wireless charging Union, the registration category is Consumer Electronics Millet upcoming wireless charger will use the United States IDT's Rx (receive) solution.
According to the WPC data, there will be 325 million wireless charging products listed in 2017, of which 300 million will be smartphones and the transmitter will have a market size of about 75 million. The number of wireless charging terminals and transmitters has rapidly increased, It is expected that wireless charging terminals will reach 1 billion and 2 billion by 2020 and 2025 respectively and transmitters will reach about 500 million by 2021.
This market has also attracted many manufacturers in the industry chain from a technical point of view, the wireless charging industry chain is divided into two parts receiving and transmitting, the receiving end of the upstream and downstream industry chain is divided into chips, magnetic materials, transmission coils, module manufacturing, system Integrated.The transmitter is divided into: chip, coil module, program design.
Receiving end of the chip and system integration design of high technical barriers, high profits (probably accounted for 30% of the wireless charging chain profits), the main customer is the mobile terminal. Today's development status and fingerprint identification three years ago is very similar to the international brand only IDT has a large number of shipping experience, Broadcom is Apple's official custom, and other major brands, including TI, Qualcomm, have failed to seize the first wave of industry outbreak opportunities, failed to enter any of a handset vendors supply In contrast, a number of domestic advanced technology companies and listed companies to grasp the layout of the early layout of the mobile phone receiver market has begun to take shape, equipped with domestic chip brand mobile phone has been available, it is said Jinli phone M7 Plus selection is made Brand wireless charging solution.
In the launch of the chip link, many manufacturers involved, highly competitive, but also differentiated into different levels.First-tier wireless charger manufacturers, such as Mophie, Belkin, Sapphire, etc. generally pay more attention to frequency, FOD foreign body detection, and fast charge And other performance, the international brand NXP, IDT and the few major high-end market, the chip manufacturers tend to be the first choice in the main cost of the brand, the foreign chip because of its high price is difficult to occupy a space, but a number of domestic chip The market share of manufacturers is high, of course, the competition in this market is also very fierce.
The outbreak of the wireless charging market, undoubtedly for the upstream and downstream enterprises, represents a huge business opportunity, not only in smart phones, but also in the smart home, car and other markets still have a lot of space.In addition, for third-party wireless Charging suppliers, this also means a huge business opportunity.These manufacturers provide wireless charger is not only for Samsung or Apple's package, but the compatibility of high-end products, in order to achieve for different brands of mobile phones. However, , Wireless charging industry is still in the early stages of the outbreak, the emergence of wireless charger products on the market is numerous, and only those who guarantee good quality products to stand out in the market.
