Tell us about Coolpad mobile sets.
Coolpad, a manufacturer of mobile phone and related smart terminal devices, has a business history of more than two decades.
The company has been selling its products in 26 countries including the US, Indonesia, Vietnam and India.
It is also credited with achieving one of the largest market shares in China just two years after launching 4G service there.
This time, we have focused on promoting mobile phones from Coolpad, which come with advanced technology, in the Nepali market.
What prospects do you see for your products in the Nepali market?
The Nepali market is a fast-growing market for smart mobile phones which has been transforming from traditional 3G to 4G technology. We want to take advantage of this opportunity in collaboration with our trustworthy local partner JIPL, the sole distributor of our products for Nepal. Based on the grand success in the Indian market where we launched our products last year, we are hopeful of seeing a similar result here. Likewise, we are expecting to reduce our distribution costs while expanding the market in the region.
How would you define your products in one sentence?
Coolpad products are of innovative design with high quality and very good value and give users a ‘cool’ feeling. Technology, reliability and accessibility are our main motto.
How would you differentiate Coolpad mobile sets from other products in its class?
Basically, Coolpad has focused on two parts to serve the best to its customers. The first one is that the product is the result of strenuous research and development and offers our customers advanced products through its powerful supply chain. The mobile sets are equipped with dual sim card system, dual cameras and dual speakers.
The dual cameras at the front and rear of the mobile phone enables users to get more ‘real’ snapshots even where there is low light.
The dual speakers provide the feeling of surround sound system to users while watching movies or playing games.
The products come equipped with the latest Snapdragon 821 Quad-core Processor to ensure faster service to users.
Likewise, the dual software and double hardware system enable users to operate two interfaces such as WhatsApp and Facebook at the same time. Second, we offer cost effective service to our customers.
What products will you be launching in Nepal on Monday?
We will be introducing four models of Coolpad mobile sets on Monday. People will find out more about the features of these mobile phones following the grand launch on Monday.
What message do you have for Nepali smartphone users?
People should consider not spending more money in the name of high technology goods. Technology changes our life. Start changing your life with smartphones with high value.
