国产手机走过的弯路,折叠屏只是其中一条 在日前举行的华为Pura先锋盛典及鸿蒙智行新品发布会上,华为推出首款阔折叠屏手机华为Pura X。 而另一边,其他国内手机厂商的动作也很耐人寻味。OPPO在2024年全年未发布任何一款折叠屏产品。近期还有消息称,魅族大折叠研发已停止,另有两家手机厂商暂停了三折叠产品的研发,行业人士猜测其中一家是荣耀。 如果从柔宇科技发布全球首款消费级折叠屏手机“柔派FlexPai”算起,折叠屏手机已经走过了7年。而IDC认为,折叠屏手机在使用场景和消费人群上已经难有更大突破和吸引力,预计2025年会有更多厂商持观望态度,将更加保守。 一条曾让国产手机厂商争先恐后押注的赛道,如今几乎可以被证明,只是一条弃之可惜,不得不坚持走下去的“弯路”。 而这仅是一个缩影,在国产厂商陷入集体焦虑的这几年,一如来到了赛场上的“垃圾时间”,为创新而创新,不痛不痒地迭代…… 集体押错注? 彼时,全球智能手机出货量在2019年-2023年每年平均下滑4%,出货量累计下降16%。折叠屏手机这条小众赛道却保持着逆势增长。 华为Mate XT 图源 / 定焦One 数据来源 / IDC 到了2024年末,当华为全新折叠旗舰Mate X6开启预订,抢跑“全球第一台双折叠手机”的柔宇,已被正式裁定破产。再到2025年刚开年,据外媒报道,苹果的竖向折叠iPhone项目仍在推迟,而博主“智慧皮卡丘”爆料称,魅族的大折叠屏手机研发项目已经停止。 而这不得不让人联想起,魅族的前副总裁李楠曾表示,一个普通5G手机零件成本约3000元,升级为折叠屏后,屏幕额外需要约1400元,再加上电池等其他部件,一款折叠屏手机的零件成本预计5000元。此外,屏幕开模、结构件模具、铰链设计以及软件研发成本,均摊至每台手机约15000元,一款折叠屏的利润微乎其微。 但要放手吗?已经很难。荣耀CEO赵明曾在去年9月表示:“现在肯定没有收回,还差得远,不是一个亿,我们做荣耀Magic V2投入了10亿。” 于是,尽管国产手机厂商涌入这条赛道时,图的是“增长”,如今无法退赛,却是因为沉没成本。可以说,折叠屏赛道近乎陷入了一个不得不坚持下去的“死局”。 为了创新而创新 正如“新媒科技评论”指出,智能手机的上一次集体创新,要回溯至2018年。彼时,除了iPhone X的诞生外,各大厂商也纷纷推出了自己的全面屏手机,通过滑盖、折叠屏、曲面屏、挖孔等方式来提高屏占比的设计,可以说是百花齐放。 但短短几年间,革命性的创新成为了泡沫,国产手机厂商大多只能为了创新而创新。为了寻求新的创新点,手机厂商们几乎对每一个元器件都做了迭代更新。但显然,这些创新点似乎并未奏效。 而要论原因,最主要的原因或许在于,整个赛道来到了“垃圾时间”——既不能扭转局势,又不能结束赛事。 在焦灼的大混战里,所有厂商都无法停下来,因为如果无法持续推出新品,就面临着淘汰,但被动地“卷”,也无法换来实际利益。对于头部厂商而言,往往有着“熬过去”的底气,但也有不少厂商,倒在了比赛结束前。 也正因此,不仅是折叠屏,此前也有诸多小众赛道,比如自拍手机、游戏手机等等,引来各大厂商押注。原因就在于,对于焦虑的国内手机厂商而言,再小的出路,也是出路。 就在近日,真我还推出了以“耐玩战神,续航超神”为卖点的新款游戏手机,售价仅1530元起。而真我的相关负责人表示,要“持续引领创新,打破内卷……通过游戏手机实现产品差异化竞争。” 锌刻度留意到,真我的这款游戏手机主打的仍然是续航、帧率等游戏手机的常规性能,而这些早已是黑鲨和红魔讲过的故事。
