At about the same time as Samsung unveiled its newest flagship smart phone in Barcelona, in Taiwan local telecom operator Far EasTone unveiled its own new line of handsets. Far EasTone hopes to win over customers looking for a lower-priced phone with many of the same functions and specs as global brands.
A special feature of this phone is automatic photo shooting that makes it easy to take consecutive shots. The phone is made by local telecom operator Far EasTone.
This phone provides automatic translations of Korean and Japanese, making travel easier. FarEasTone has four of its own 3G models: the Smart 401, 402, 501 and 502. Specs are competitive with better known brands.
Maxwell Cheng
FarEasTone Vice President
Our own brand has accounted for about 10 percent of our business. We hope that these new models raise consumer confidence and allow us to achieve 20 percent of the market.
Taiwan Mobile launched the self-branded A7 phone at the end of last year. Like the Far EasTone Smart 502, it has a quad processor and 5.5-inch screen. FarEasTone’s camera has a greater number of pixels, while the two models are priced similarly.
“I’m interested in these because they’re cheaper now. The larger screens also make them more convenient.”
Chunghwa Telecom has no plans to release its own brand of smart phone.
