Millet was not alone in making cheap Android phone company. There is a manufacturing company of Android devices is also located in Beijing, founded by three former Google employees, and rely on two successful Kickstarter to raise, the development has more than 100 employees. The company is Jide.
David Ko, one of the founders of the company will be Android as a platform can rule all. In his view, the next generation of Android is not a company, but to rely on the community as a whole. Ant gold suit Chen Dawei financial services security
Ko company developed its own version of Android Remix cause of OS, this version of the power of collective development. Company each and every user is considered to be employees for their contribution to the development of the Android part. Jide now has two products, Remix and Remix Ultratablet Mini PC computer tablet. Ko said he hopes users will tell them what they want.
Cheap
In recent months, users to Remix a universal OS requirements is a document management application, it is best to just like in OS x and Windows, makes a more powerful. Company has added a file manager for the system, which will launch in October with Remix OS 21, Mini version of company equipment will be shipped to Kickstarter supporters early.
Additional functionality is important because Ko they want their two devices instead of thousands of dollars in a notebook or PC, as cheap and effective choice. Remix Mini rock-bottom price of only $ 30, with only a mouse as big, of course, use it when you have to bring your own display and keyboard.
Ko believes that if just to check e-mail and surf the Web, do not need hundreds of thousands of dollars in computer. There are a lot of people are talking about mobile first, but they prefer to use the keyboard and mouse work. We still need a computer at work, this is not in line with the trend. Therefore, Jide you want the computers at work the advantages of combining entertainment and mobile devices, and lower prices than usual.
Even though PC industry downturn, but the idea makes sense. People don't mind every two or three years for a thinner phone, but computers are not so positive, will probably wait until it was not working before they update. But our daily lives can not be separated from the computer, then why not get them cheap?
Microsoft Windows 10 has become more and more clever, the downsizing of the system, so it can run stable in notebooks, mixed, or even $ 100 device only. But Ko believes that Android and it's a greater chance of winning.
Second preparatory
Jide already have their own Android version, and a growing community, arguably it is likely to be the next step, like millet, a mobile phone. Millet in MIUI is developed a year later in 2011, started mobile phone. However, Ko said, still want to wait and see, want to focus first on the operating system.
While cell phones are not planned, but Jide began to think about creating your own network for the system service.
Another focus of the company is now launching his second device. Mini has raised $ 1.4 million, while the target only US $ 50,000, and the book a delivery date is in October, and Remix as OS 2 upgrade time. Jide competitive success, is also the first time that a Chinese start-up companies exceeded 1 million US dollar capital-raising amount.
Remix Ultratablet performance is good, it acquired earlier this year raised $ 210,377 goal is $ 100,000.
