In order to rapidly popularize the 5G network, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has introduced many measures in recent years to open the 700MHz frequency band to telecom operators.

According to industry analysts, the participation of China Radio and Television will accelerate the popularization of 5G in counties, townships and rural areas, and at the same time reduce the tariff standard of communication packages.

It is pre-installed with genuine people’s education digital teaching materials, which are divided into two configurations.

People’s Education Society disclosed in 2016 that the second generation of people’s education Pad has served more than 50 schools in Zhuhai.

The configuration of renjiao Pad is very old. It uses a large screen with 10.1-inch resolution of 1200*1920 and is equipped with MT8173 quad-core processor introduced by MediaTek in 2015. The maximum storage specification is 4+64GB, and it runs Android 6.0 system. For such a configuration, the price of more than 4,000 yuan can really be called "sky-high".

 

Redmi Note 11T series includes three models, namely Note 11T Pro, Note 11T Pro+ and Note 11T Trend Limited Edition (Astro Boy Edition), in which Astro Boy Edition is customized based on Pro+ models.

Redmi Note 11T Pro/Pro+ are the same mold models, and their designs are consistent. In terms of hardware, they are equipped with Tianji 8100 chip and 144Hz LCD direct screen (certified by DisplayMate A+). The main difference lies in the battery and charging. The Pro model has a larger battery, which is equipped with 5080mAh battery+120W fast charging, and the Pro+ model has a stronger fast charging, which is equipped with 4400.

In terms of price, the Pro model 618 starts at 1699 yuan, and the 8+128GB version is 1899 yuan. Pro+ model 8+128GB version 618 starts at 1999 yuan. Under the condition of the same specification storage, Pro+ model is more expensive than Pro model by 100 yuan.

 

OPPO Reno8 series consists of three models, namely Reno8, Reno8 Pro and Reno8 Pro+, which are equipped with Tianji 1300, Snapdragon 7 and Tianji 8100-Max chips respectively, and the latter two also have Mariana X self-developed NPU.

The three models of Reno8 series are somewhat backward in configuration compared with competing products. The starting price of the standard version is 2499 yuan, but the rear camera lacks a wide-angle lens, and it is still a 90Hz screen. The Pro version starts at 2999 yuan, but the core configuration is not excellent, and the flash memory specification of UFS 2.2 is not even as good as the previous generation.

From the point of view of configuration and cost performance, Reno8 series is really hard to compete with, and it seems a bit like "high price and low price" in those days. However, the Reno8 series also has some bright spots, such as unique color matching and design. All three models have a 32-megapixel beauty front camera, and the high-profile model Pro+ has a very narrow chin.

 

I’m sure you’ve all heard how unpopular the three-cylinder engine is in China. This time, as the staunchest supporter of the three-cylinder machine, Chevrolet finally couldn’t stand it, and launched the 1.5T four-cylinder Chuangkuo RS.

However, for friends who can’t afford to buy 2.0T Mai Rui Bao and Explorer, they can only choose a three-cylinder machine if they want to buy a cheaper Chevrolet, which is why Chevrolet has been tepid at the level of 100,000. This time, I found the crux, and I believe Chevrolet will become the choice of many young people who have just entered the society.

Of course, for those who are more eager to drive, I think intelligence is behind it.
