天朝威武：老外可羡慕咱们的手机了！为啥？

在中国，一个传递信息的应用程序有多重功能，远远不限于发信息给别人，告诉他你开会要迟到。相反，它就像是一个社交网络，用来帮助你追踪朋友和名人的最新动态。

But it isn’t just social. It taps into your phone’s GPS, microphone and camera to let you play games, check in to a flight, identify a song, book an appointment, call a cab, pay bills, you name it.

更有甚者，消息应用程序不仅仅具有社交功能。你还可以把它连接到手机的全球定位系统、麦克风和摄像头上，玩游戏、预订航班、选择歌曲、预约服务、叫出租车和支付账单等等。

手机更新换代速度快

Cheaper Android handsets from Xiaomi, Huawei and LeTV combined with contract-free mobile service enable people to always have the latest technology—better screens, processors and cameras.
