CNBC Marathon explores how the cellphone market is transforming.
Made in China. It’s a common phrase known by many. Cellphones, TV screens and game consoles are just some of the millions of electronics manufactured and imported from China to the U.S. daily. China has controlled the smartphone manufacturing market for years. While some industries, like the semiconductor industry and the EV battery market, are scrambling to build new factories across the U.S., tech giants like Apple and Google are not making the same effort to do that. CNBC explores why tech giants produce phones abroad and whether it makes sense to move production to America.
Dumb phones, once considered outdated, are still prevalent around the world, making up about a quarter of mobile phones actively in use. While affordability in developing countries is a significant reason for their continued use, there could be an unexpected but potential rise in use among younger generations conscientious about the potential smart phones could have on mental health. While Nokia and Motorola are still some of the biggest dumb phone makers in the world, Punkt. and Light are two start-ups betting on the resurgence in popularity.
For years, BlackBerry was the most popular smartphone brand in the U.S. After failing to adjust to the rapidly-changing industry and falling to competitors like Apple and Google, the company pivoted to an entirely new direction. Now, it’s focused solely on software and cybersecurity - trying to leave the iconic cellphones in the past. CNBC visited BlackBerry's Autonomous Vehicle Innovation Center and interviewed CEO John Chen to see what the company is up to now.

There aren’t many skilled and fast workers in the US without everyone trying have a subjective living wage. Amazon was probably the only company that can push workers to work their wage, but you know how that goes. Then you have the push for work life balance and in my experience it’s people asking for 20-30 hours and higher pay

China also has more skilled labor to handle the parts, assembly, and design elements. U.S. could do the same, but the cost for education and training leads to free enterprise business model which big business doesn’t want to support. You learn the skill then go into business for yourself. Think of (for example) those kiosks and shops that can fix computers and cellphones. Even with the plethora of phones in use, there aren’t many repair shops because of the skill and education needed to know how to repair. People aren’t interested in learning how to do this as a massive shift in business.

Culture is too different. A typical Asian wouldn't shy away from having to go through the hoops and doing iterative work, which would be too menial, not to mention boring. Besides which, lots of high tech manufacturing requires teams of smart people working together. Smart people in the US I feel tend to be more isolated and don't play nice with others. It's a collectivist vs individualist thing that's evident in typical Asian vs Western culture. Haven't even talked about office culture yet. Another big thing the US really needs to overhaul is their higher education system. Higher education in the US is waaayyy too expensive. It'll hurt their plans in the long run to bring jobs back to America. Manufacturing the really valuable stuff requires upskilling across the board. You can't do that if the people working aren't good enough.

E-Ink as a screen option is a fundamental difference compared to typical LCD screens of smartphones. The screen is what drains the battery of typical LCD phones the most. E-Ink is not artificial light, so there is a huge difference and it is honestly very comfortable. People can have an LCD phone for at home to watch videos, but during the work day, an E-Ink screen for internet, email, talk and text is fully sufficient. Other advantages of E-Ink devices are that they are inherently more lightweight, so less of a burden to carry around all day. Our excellent and high quality smartphones with LCD screens are very impressive and great for video and for photography, but during the work day might be actually more than what we would need. At the very least, E-Ink technology is an emerging avenue of technology worthy of consideration. The Hisense A9 is impressive but not so easy to install Google products and also for talk/text. It feels like many E-Ink device makers are experimenting with how they want to make the products. Lastly, LCD or OLED screens can be bright and tiring for our eyes, a neutral E -Ink screen takes a moment to get used to, but is much softer on the experience and should be explored.

The 2012 Google-Motorola failure is because the iPhone was coming off of the exclusive AT&T contract, and nobody was gonna buy another Moto phone. 2012 also marks the beginning of the end for Blackberry (loved my Blackberry.) Google-Motorola just hit at the wrong time. They knocked it out of the park with the pixel, though I still love my iPhone.

I kept my button-based phone until 2016 or 2017. The only reason I switched was by then, there were no button phones for sale. I then tried a Windows phone, and liked that and stuck with that until Dec 2018-ish. I had to switch because my car's blue tooth would not sync with a "non-popular" phone brand. I'd get a Windows phone again if it would be compatible.

Before the invention of printing press, humans wrote their messages with their hand. But in 1450, Johannes Guttenberg FIROZ made it possible to communicate with many people at the same time by his invention of the printing press. Now more books began to be printed in less time. Since then millions of books, magazines and newspapers are printed every year. All these are communications which enabled people to communicate with each other. 👍👍👍👍👍

As a result, I prefer to delegate my daily market decisions to a portfolio manager. Their entire skill set is geared on simultaneously taking long and short positions, taking advantage of risk to benefit from its asymmetric upside, and eliminating risk out of the equation to defend against the inevitable downturn turns. I've been working with a portfolio coach for over two years and have made over one million and five hundred and seventy thousand dollars.

This is a touchy subject that a LOT of folks are going to disagree with me on. When you send such complex manufacturing to these small towns that don't have the educational/technical prowess, and do it in areas of America that have lower cost of living, then YES, finding those "skilled" laborers over the long-term will be a challenge. Skilled workers can move, which in time will raise the cost of living due to their skill to do this. Or place the manufacturing in areas that have the skilled workers to do this. But then again there's another problem. Sadly the urban, HYPER expensive areas of America can ONLY satisfy this. For the sake of national security, the US gov't will have to subsidize these already SUPER profitable companies to entice them to do this. Capitalism doesn't ALWAYS equal Patriotism.

@JasonTaylor-po5xc 8 ай бұрын

Yeah, an economic system and love for one's country are completely different concepts. There are a number of ways to address issues, one is to have dis-incentives (tariffs) on goods not made with free trade partners. I suppose it is a modern fad to crap on Capitalism, although it is the system that has lead to the most wealth, strong middle class and an elevated poor relative to other places in the world. While it isn't perfect, it is a heck of a lot better than anything else that has been tried.

To set it up would take years, moving operations to U.S. takes longer so there’s a 5-8 year investment to make this happen while you parallel manage existing manufacturing. All for what? For the skilled labor you train to quit and start their own version of repair shops or parts availability? There are some risks, I just think Apple hasn’t found a reason to do this as a costs savings measure. They transfer the cost to the consumer so happily pays for it.

As a data point, in engineering, there's a saying in Taiwan "US invents the product, Japanese perfects the product (in terms of quality), Taiwan (or South Korea) makes it economical. By the time China can manufacture, it's time to get out." If moving manufacturing away from China makes sense, the first logical place to move to is Taiwan (or South Korea). Except you don't see we moving manufacturing back to Taiwan nor South Korea, simply due to it's NOT economical. I worked for a Taiwanese ODM 20 years ago and they don't even manufacture in Taiwan anymore. The monthly output was 400k laptops/month 20 years ago. There's no way for Librem to scale manufacturing in the US. One last thing, besides extreme precise manufacturing (like semiconductor), US manufacturing was neither high quality (vs Japanese/Germen) nor economical (vs Taiwan/South Korea).
