What You May Not Know of Oppo, OnePlus and Vivo

Despite their meteoric rise in the mobile phone industry, few people have ever really heard of Oppo.

This 2016, the fastest growing sales in the smartphone industry is not Samsung or Xiaomi but Oppo. 

Here are some things you might want to know


1. Oppo's CEO is Tony Chen
Tony founded this company in 2004 in Dongguan, southern China.  Little is know about Tony Chen, except that he is young and energetic. 

2. Oppo used to make a lot of high quality MP3 Players

Before they ventured into mobile phones, Oppo made portable media players (PMPs) that were released only in China and very few other Asian markets. These MP3 players were very well received and highly acclaimed in China. 

3. Oppo started smartphones in 2008
Oppo is actually older than Xiaomi in this industry. The year 2008 was also the year when Samsung and LG were small players in the smartphone market. 

4.  Oppo innovates
Oppo’s first mobile phone didn’t really impress a lot of consumers, but their later releases certainly made headlines in tech news sites. In 2013, Oppo released the N1 with its rotating camera and that really made waves.

5. Oppo also owns OnePlus, and OnePlus owns Vivo
These 3 are now the fastest growing smartphones in China. 

6. Oppo's specifications are the highest in the industry with the Lowest Price
6 GB Ram, 16 MP Front Camera, 10-minutes quick charge to 50% are technologies that even giants like Apple and Samsung cannot do it

This Chinese company is clearly intent on making their mark. In fact, they seem to be aiming directly for the biggest players: Apple and Samsung. 

Only time will tell if Oppo’s efforts will pay off, and if the new markets will embrace their phones. But one thing’s certain: consumers know the name Oppo now, and you now know Oppo after reading my article. Written by Andy Ng, chief trainer of www.asiatrainers.com

If Not You, Who Else?

I learnt this very powerful 5-word phrase from Singapore's highest ever box-office movie ever: "Ah Boys to Men II". In one scene, the recruits were about to start their 3-day field camp.  Their Officer-in-Command asked them, "Before we moved out, anybody not feeling well?"  All the soldiers replied loudly, "No Sir!!!" "Gentlemen", continued the Officer, "Every time the training gets tougher, one thought comes to your mind, 'Why Must I Serve National Service?' "My answer to you is, 'If Not You, Then Who Else?'" Wow!  What a powerful phrase!  If Not You, Who Else may mean: You are the most suitable person, and we can't find anyone better than you.  This is appreciation at the highest level How can you push this responsibility to someone else? I am making a request to you specifically, please don't reject my request Can you find me another person more suitable than you? Please refer me anot...

Kindness as a Way of Life: How Kindness can Reward You 6 Times Over

Kindness as a Way of Life by Andy Ng Kindness is a universal language that transcends cultural boundaries, enriches human connections, and has the power to transform lives. It goes beyond mere acts of charity or random good deeds. To me, kindness, when practiced as a way of life, becomes a profound philosophy that can shape our interactions with others, the world around us, and even our own well-being.
