Chapter 1 – Company Overview

1.1 Introduction

Technology plays a vital role in this digital and modern world. Companies continue

to innovate and explore the digital world. Individuals tend to adapt to changes to all the

advancements needed right now.

Huawei, one of the leading global providers of information and communications

technology infrastructure and smart devices, is offering valuable products these times.

Huawei makes the life of its users easier because of its ecosystem. Since they offer

different gadgets such as smartphones, laptops, tablets, earbuds, and power

banks, they utilize the technology to create an ecosystem. Users can locate, transfer,

and view their files, use multi-screen collaboration with the MatePad Pro, and one-tap

audio sharing on different gadgets with the help of Huawei’s services like Huawei

Share (Wong, 2020).

Huawei is known to be a brand that does not have Google, yet it can maintain

and sustain its visibility in the market. Also, there are still ways to connect to Google

services and applications through having Huawei’s own App Gallery, wherein you can

download applications that the Play store has.

In this modern era, Huawei manages to maintain the loyalty of its customers by

knowing and determining who are their market. Huawei’s Customer Segment Analysis

uses Wi-Fi, big data analytics, and manageable cloud platforms to accurately

determine customer demographics — including their age, gender, interests,

occupation, and spending habits (Customer Segment Analysis, n.d.). Huawei focuses

more on the mid-market, wherein customers need technologies in their lives. Mostly,

2
students and professionals are their markets since they utilize and maximize the

features and advancements of the technology.

In this chapter, the researchers have proposed a new product for Huawei, by

extending its product category and providing additional products for the mid-market of

Huawei. The “Snap Series: VlogCam” is a vlogging (mirrorless) camera under the new

brand “Huawei Snap Series” catering individuals within the mid-market that has leisure

for photography and vlogging. The camera’s physical design is sleek to carry and has a

built -noise-canceling microphone for better audio and a camera flip screen to allow

users to monitor and manage visuals. Additionally, it has a long battery life with a

maximum of 400 shots and 150 minutes of recording usage when fully charges, and is

expandable to 1TB of storage. Internal features focus on 4k high definition image and

1080p video resolution, also it is operated by “Huawei Share” with its built-in ecosystem

6.3 Product Viability

As Huawei continues to innovate in technology, a vlogging camera has a big

potential in the market. Huawei already has the technology, software, and even the

materials they needed in creating the camera on the line. This vlogging camera suits the

lifestyle of their market, professionals, and students. People nowadays tend to

document every event or situation they are into and compile them for their own

purposes. This product will enable the users to utilize the ecosystem of Huawei. One

can transfer files from the camera to other devices that Huawei have through its Huawei

share. It also enables wireless printing with printers that enable WIFI printing. This

product will surely be a trend in the market since this will be the first time that Huawei

will release a vlogging camera. This vlogging camera is good for beginners in vlogging

or photography. They can get this product at a very affordable price, perfect for starters.

As we all know Huawei is collaborating with different tech vloggers through this, they

can help Huawei to market this new product easily. This product is great for future

vloggers, videographers, and photographers.
