iPhone Analysis

I've spent some time considering the implications of how the iPhone will make our lives easier come the June release.

It seems to me that the iPhone will eventually make our digital lives ubiquitous finally bringing together our desktop experiences with our ever growing on-demand culture.

The promise of the iPhone makes consuming entertainment more likely on the mobile platform, furthering the adoption of mobile broadband and download services. Truly, lots of opportunities seem present both for companies and consumers alike… but in reality for the iPhone to succeed lots of things will need to happen first...

MobileCrunch provides some insight on what is need to catapult Apple's status in the mobile space. They outline 10 things necessary to ensure the viability of the product.

The Bottom-line:
Apple will need to ship with 3 batteries in-box, but long-long term they have a chance of success

1) Market share:
1% global market share or 8 million phones in 2008 is NOT feasible. Even with subsidies, this product cannot compete in a year’s time in EMEA and Asia. Those markets are crucial to making the numbers, not to mention the fact that the Cingular deal will delay the CDMA launch to cover all US carriers and compete with the big manufacturers.

2) Profitability:
This is all about reaching economy of scale which will not happen until 10% of the global market is captured, please note that the PC market is different as it is more a software than a hardware play.

3) Brand:
Apple has great brand preference with enormous growth potential outside the current brand territory like PC’s and iPod’s.

4) Design:
Marvelous design! Looking at the N800, Apple has not reinvented the phone, nevertheless certainly made the design leap ahead of the competition.

5) Thin:
Great size, however the 3G engine will need more space which will make the product fatter and please make sure you’re close to a charger.

6) Radio Technology:
Apple does not have the radio technology necessary to compete in the premium smart-phone segment, note the lack of 3G. Most companies which lacked radio technology have failed over the years like the Japanese manufacturers in GSM in the late nineties.

7) R&D:
Giants like Nokia and Motorola spend close to $10 billion annually on R&D which makes it hard for Apple to compete in this new field with a lot of technologies crossing the chasm every day.

8) Price:
In a certain price category, a product needs to compete on both the premium brand, design as well as the features. Apple’s feature list sounds impressive compared to the other phones on the market in the US, however, would compare to second or third tier manufacturers in Europe and Asia. Before moving down in price and start roaming the mass-market, Apple needs to win the high-end and become profitable.

9) Battery Life:
Knowing the battery life of the ultra-thin smart-phones like the Black Jack which is shipped with two batteries in-box, with Wi-fi, Apple would need to ship with 3 batteries in-box or wait for the fuel-cell breakthrough.

10) OS:
OSX is not developed from the ground up for smartphones like Psion/Symbian was. This means that Jobs “killer app is making calls” is probably not as well integrated with the iPod and the PIM functionality as it should have been the case, Wifi and BT will drain the battery and only a very fast and expensive processor might be able to cater for a fast-working UI.

Never the less, Apple has made great strides in building demand for a product that promises to change the mobile experience. I'm looking forward to see if Apple can deliver.
