A
Sales of Apple‟s new iPhone 11 in China began on Friday, but were met with a cooler reception from consumers than in previous years. Unlike in previous years, no long lines were seen outside Chinese shops on Friday for the new iPhone, and the product release only made the headlines in a few media outlets.
Huawei unveiled (公布) its Mate 30 smartphone series on Thursday night. Its new devices have won consumers‟ hearts at home and abroad. Many compared it with Apple‟s new iPhone 11, saying that beats the new iPhone in terms of innovation and quality. One customer surnamed Zhao, an IT specialist who pre-ordered a Mate 30 Pro on Friday, said that he chose Mate 30 without hesitation. Zhao said, “It‟s obvious that Huawei‟s new phone with its advanced 5G mode would lead the future global telecommunications market, and its new innovative features in gesture and side control attracted my attention, too.”
In contrast with iPhone 11‟s lukewarm (冷淡的) sales, Chinese netizens have engaged in discussions on Mate 30 and Mate 30 Pro. An online poll on the Mate 30 and iPhone 11 on Weibo on Friday showed that more than 60 percent of netizens chose the Mate 30, while less than 20 percent chose the iPhone 11.
Many chose Huawei not out of patriotism but for its technology.
Overseas consumers also engaged in vigorous (有力的) discussions on Huawei‟s new flagship
devices on technology sites and social media platforms. On Twitter, many netizens said “nice”, “best phone ever” and “my favorite one” on Huawei‟s Twitter account. Some netizens in countries like the UK,the Netherlands and Argentina asked when Huawei‟s new devices would be released in their countries.
21. How did customers react to Apple‟s new product?
