Support for all 5G models, finalists / models for the elderly are also very rich-NTT DoCoMo 2021-2022 winter and spring models released | my navigation news my navigation news my navigation

Eight models came out in winter and spring.

In addition, the product is extended to peripherals other than smartphones. Expand the service to users by using 5G-enabled laptops such as "ThinkPad X1 Nano" and smart glass "Nreal Air".

The lineup of smartphones is high-end smartphones "Galaxy Z Fold 35G SC-55B" and "Galaxy Z Flip 35G SC-54B" and "Xperia 5 III SO-53B". The standard models are "AQUOS sense6SH-54B", "arrows We Fly51B" and "Galaxy A22 5G SC-56B". We have prepared "Smart smartphone Fmur52B" and "Anxin smartphone KY-51B" for the elderly.

Galaxy Z, Xperia, AQUOS and arrows brands have been released by the manufacturers themselves and have been released. However, with regard to arrows We, which was announced the day before, it was almost the first time that it had been made public. The newly released Galaxy A225G and two smart phones for the elderly, in addition to the ninth generation of "easy smartphones", will also be put into Anxin mobile phones produced by Kyocera.

Kyocera said that only some products for DoCoMo, such as feature phones and card terminals, had previously been discussed between the two, trying to expand the lineup of DoCoMo, using Kyocera's proposal.

For smart phones for the elderly, many people are accustomed to menus and operations due to years of provision. for smartphones, there are two different lineup of mobile phones with large screens. I want to meet the needs of the elderly. Arrows We itself has a wide range of goals, and the manufacturer FCNT provides a wide range of services for the elderly, enabling them to choose different devices.

The Galaxy A22 5G is also the best terminal for the "family has almost become a mobile phone", the "5G mobile phone that is also gentle to the wallet" (Product Minister Seiji Abe). The lineup of DoCoMo is divided into two types: high specification / standard, but in the standard, the terminal price is mainly at the low end, although not so, it is also a strategy to promote transfer through 5G.

"elderly people often use photos, such as taking flowers to check names," Abe said. Through 5G can be more convenient to use these functions, hope to promote the terminal of 5G, to promote the popularity of both the network and services.

Judging from the proportion of Android smartphones purchased from July to August 2019, although the composition of the standard model is relatively high, it also buys the corresponding high-specification model. But in 2021, this fell sharply, and the purchase rate of standard models also increased. This is due to high terminal prices, which correspondingly increases the purchase ratio of models with lower prices.

This time, many terminals are released by manufacturers in advance, not by operators, but by the trend of manufacturers releasing their own products. Having said that, the terminal is after all a form jointly developed by manufacturers and operators. The Ministry of Security stressed that DoCoMo, developed in cooperation with manufacturers, can be used comfortably by optimizing it into a network. Corresponding to the manufacturer's cooperative propulsion frequency, this is the significance of the carrier providing terminal.

On the contrary, if only the frequency band of each carrier can be used, it may not be used in sufficient areas in the case of MNP to another carrier. At this point, the Ministry of Security has put forward the idea of attaching importance to "balancing with price", because dealing with a wide range of frequency bands will increase terminal costs. However, the mobility of users has increased by eliminating SIM card unlocking and two-year bundling, so there is also an understanding of the need to support other companies' frequency bands.

DoCoMo sells laptops that support 5G-Lenovo's "ThinkPad X1 Nano" is also a big topic. In particular, a new point is to support the "anytime Gardner program" that sets the residual value, exempting payments after the 24th month, and supporting purchase support programs for the cheap use of terminals.

We do not support customized specifications, but we can use laptops within 2 years. With or without the DoCoMo line contract, users such as DoCoMo's 5G Gigaho premiere can use the corresponding data capacity according to the contract plan by using the 5G data plus sign for an additional 1100 yen per month.

These devices other than smartphones also offer "Nreal Air" for smart glasses. A portable device that looks similar to ordinary sunglasses can be connected to a smartphone to project a picture of the smartphone in front of your eyes. A large picture with a maximum size of 130in appears in front of us, from which the gap can pass through the real world and approach the use of AR glasses. Support Android smart phones, depending on the model, can also display multiple applications at the same time.

As a new service, the kikito equipment Guide, which extends the equipment rental service "kikito", will be available from January 2022. In the name of "equipment management platform", it is a service that supports equipment from purchase to sale.

The Kikito device Guide brings together information about a variety of devices, including but not limited to smartphones. Provides content, including equipment support information and user guides, as well as an introduction to the peripherals that work with it, bringing together information on a variety of devices, from home appliances to beauty devices.

It links to device support information and instructions and allows you to access the purchase website as an application that ultimately supports sale on the Flima website. At present, the cooperative Frimer website is under negotiation, and the details of the service are not clear.

Not only smartphones, but also DoCoMo, which combines its periphery to explore new services in the 5G era. As one of the directions, we have put forward the policy of expanding processing equipment. In the future, what kind of products and services will be expanded to attract much attention.
