Huawei officially announced its entry into the TV industry. Does Huawei really have an inherent advantage in TV production?

The news that Huawei wants to make a TV has always been heard. According to reports, Huawei has reset the TV project team to conduct research from the hardware and UI levels, and is also in contact with upstream panel vendors. The industry has long speculated about Huawei's entry into the TV industry, but Huawei has always responded publicly.

In fact, as early as 5 years ago, Huawei reached out to the TV industry. In October 2014, Huawei and Skyworth jointly launched a 55-inch 4K smart TV-Coocaa Honor A55 smart TV; in 2015, Huawei released a variety of TV boxes, and opened them at the end of the year to make it easier to communicate with home appliances.

But these are just a small mess. Huawei has not publicly stated that it will officially enter the TV industry. At the Huawei DigiX2018 Huawei Terminal Global Partners and Developers Conference held on June 22 this year, Yu Chengdong elaborated on Huawei’s new strategy for consumer business: a full-scenario smart life ecological strategy, which includes the TV field. This also caused the outside world to suddenly speculate.

Some views claim that Huawei has inherent advantages in entering the TV industry, because Huawei's self-developed ultra-high-definition smart TV core chips have shipped close to 10 million in 2016, and they have recently begun to supply brands such as Sharp, Hisense and Konka. However, this view has been refuted by many senior industry insiders.

The cost of a smart TV fundamentally depends on the LCD panel, which accounts for 70% of its cost, and a smart TV chip with a cost of several tens of yuan is negligible for a color TV that costs more than a thousand yuan. Therefore, Huawei's advantages in chips can hardly benefit its entry into the TV industry. However, if you want to make a breakthrough in the upstream of the industry and switch to the panel market, it is conservatively estimated that the investment will exceed hundreds of billions of yuan.

Since making TVs is so expensive and the prospects are unclear, why does Huawei keep a good mobile phone and not make trouble in this muddy water? Because TV has become one of the three recognized entrances to smart homes, and this is also an important part of Huawei's full-scene smart life strategy, Huawei, which has always been extremely wolfish, certainly does not want to miss it. But what the result will be, we will wait and see.
