275: Chapter 275 Cook: I feel completely drained.

The video finally froze on the full view of the device, featuring an integrated metal body paired with the iconic dual-camera setup.

Hidden beneath the minimalist exterior was a marketing upgrade.

Transsion officially ushered in the dual-camera era for mobile photography, a classic design that has been "plagiarized" by many models from competing brands.

[Cook says: You still have the nerve to mention plagiarism?]

"Holy shit, this looks kind of high-end!"

"This phone really amazed me. I thought of a bunch of fancy words in my head, but when it came to speaking, only two words came out: holy shit."

"The guy above just admitted he's uncultured; don't worry, brothers won't make fun of you."

The live stream chat was being covered at high speed. After the rotating video ended, Shen Fei walked back to the center of the stage.

"Alright, we've finished watching the promotional video. Let's talk about the screen first."

An introduction to the screen appeared on the big screen.

"First, our transsion s3 Pro max is equipped with a 5.8-inch 1080p OLED Screen, independently developed by Transsion Panel."

"It adopts the all-new Z1+ light-emitting material, Diamond Pixel Arrangement, a peak brightness of 1200 nits, infinite contrast ratio, and covers the DCI-P3 wide color gamut."

The camera switched again, and the screen displayed the former king of phones, Samsung's S3, a phone equipped with a Super AMOLED screen that had once eclipsed all other mobile manufacturers.

But today, the two S3s were "very coincidentally" standing together, and the former king of phones immediately turned into a background prop.

First, in terms of arrangement, Samsung uses Pentile, while Transsion uses the optimal solution, Diamond Pixel Arrangement. Under a microscope, the sub-pixels appear as perfect diamonds, and the text edges are sharp, whereas Samsung's are relatively blurry.

Secondly, there is Transsion's exclusive Z1+ light-emitting material, which significantly improves overall brightness, making it look very refined.

"The parameters of this screen are still the best in the world. It's a perfect match for our deep optimization, and the display is excellent."

"This screen is too badass; it directly pins a certain competitor to the ground."

"Diamond Pixel Arrangement is the optimal solution for screens, but unfortunately, only one company has mastered this technology. Samsung's R&D capabilities need to be strengthened."

"I heard that a while ago, Samsung Panel was cursing and saying that Transsion stole their Diamond Pixel Arrangement..."

"Haha, I've heard that too, but Transsion's patent is older than theirs... It's probably just another smear campaign by a competitor."

"I have to say, the Diamond Pixel Arrangement really is the optimal solution. The display effect is top-tier."

"Purely fake. Samsung's OLED Screen is the ceiling. Over eighty percent of the patents are in their hands; how could Transsion possibly surpass them?"

"Video comparisons can't be fake, right? Highlight suppression, shadow details—it surpasses them in every aspect."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Samsung's screen can't lose to a brand like this."

Regardless of whether the trolls in the live stream believed it or not, Shen Fei had already finished the parameter introduction segment.

"Last year, one of our competitors claimed they would fully popularize large memory, but unfortunately, due to rising costs, their slogan was never realized."

"But since the competitor couldn't do it, we will make it happen for everyone."

"In terms of memory, the entire S3 series comes standard with 1GB of RAM and starts at 16GB of storage. The S3 Pro and Pro max come standard with 2GB of RAM and 32GB of storage."

There was another round of cheers from the audience, and at the same time, far away in India, Lei Jun felt a sense of offense.

Transsion was actually willing to use 2GB of RAM; this technology is currently only used by 2–3 manufacturers, and their Xiaomi 3s engineering prototype is equipped with it.

He had hoped to regain some face in this regard, but as it turned out...

One can only say that their cost control is impressive.

However, all the audience members at the venue were still looking forward to that chip.

Whether the other version of the Taishan 910 is really 22nm, and exactly how much the performance has improved...

Everyone was waiting, but the next segment was still not about the chip.

It was about the battery. The entire series comes standard with a 4200mAh battery, and the Pro max is equipped with a 4800mAh high-density, ultra-large battery pack, with an energy density 15% higher than the previous generation.

"The camera lenses are also self-developed. I believe everyone might be tired of hearing about it."

"But when the technology is powerful, there's really nothing we can do about it."

On stage, Shen Fei made a helpless gesture; after all, his own R&D team was simply too formidable.

For other companies, coming up with one or two products is already amazing, but Transsion's entire launch event felt like a presentation for self-developed products.

The so-called phone was just a live demo to show other customers how well their technology could sell.

And then tell them to hurry up and buy my products...

At this moment, in the guest seating area, Old Li smiled and said to Zhang Shiqing, "Your kid is capable."

"He should be like this; why be so humble? It's not like we don't have the technical strength."

Zhang Shiqing also nodded. Old Li might not know that if he knew this kid dared to say that, it must mean he had something even better in his hands.

Just like before, the outside world thought Transsion only had a 2-megapixel lens, but who could have imagined it had an even better one?

"The 2-megapixel secondary camera, which has already been released, has low-light details that rival the Sony IMAX145."

"And our 13-megapixel primary camera,"

"The sensor size is just a tiny bit smaller..."

As he said this, Shen Fei made a gesture indicating "a little bit," but the most useful parameters had already been announced on the big screen.

1/2.85 inches. Although it doesn't compare to that 2-megapixel one, among 12-megapixel cameras, this is still a large-sensor lens, and the photography results are naturally far ahead.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean, in a conference room at the headquarters of Apple Inc., Cook was watching the Transsion launch event with several executives.

Because of broadcast issues, what was playing here was still the product exterior.

Hardware executive Johny Srouji felt that the design seemed a bit familiar. When he looked at the others around him, he found they all had the same expression.

"Tim, this Chinese manufacturer's level of imitating us is getting higher and higher."

"The previous generation only had a sense of familiarity, but this generation, I feel it looks even more like an Apple product."

"And that dual-camera module, the overall symmetry, it's very perfect."

Cook recalled that probing trip; he had asked Shen Fei this question at the time.

The other party's answer was that good designs always have a meeting of minds!

Now it looks like whether it was a meeting of minds or blatant plagiarism, none of these things could be spoken aloud.

Just as they were discussing, Shen Fei over there had already finished briefly introducing the imaging system.

The S3's dual-camera setup is currently the best in the world, bar none.

"The chip!"

"We want to hear about the chip."

Led by some insiders, the audience in the venue was already shouting.

Shen Fei also stopped in his tracks on stage.

"It seems everyone is very much looking forward to that version of our Taishan 910, so since that's the case..."

"Oh no! I feel like that dog Shen is about to stir up trouble again."

"He isn't going to talk about the system again, is he?!"

Shen Fei gently pressed the page-turn button. After freezing for a few seconds, the PPT finally switched.

"Mr. Shen, we were wrong, don't switch..."
