There are many price ranges for MP3 players. There are some popular ones in the market, some cheap ones and some expensive ones. What is the reason for this? Now I will give you a detailed analysis.
Before I tell you the reasons, let me tell you the Mp3 composition. It simply consist of keyboard, plastic panel, hardware, motherboard.
1. PlasticThe brand-new degree of plastics affect the price. Our 21 series use new plastic plates, which have high production cost and high mold cost, The complexity degree of making plastic affects the price. If more molds are used in production, it will be more expensive.The same is true of the difficulty of production. The size of plastic lens affects the price, too.
2. Keyboard
The screen affects the price. The material of the screen, such as LED and LCD , the size of the screen and the quantity glass affects the cost. Other processes of producing screen and the number of screen feet affect the price (36 pin, 17 pin, 13pin). More screen feet, finer display. 36 pin cannot be directly controlled by CPU, but should be controlled by display IC , 7 pin and 13 pin are directly controlled by CPU.
The material of encoder handle affects (metal handle, plastic handle) the price.
The number of USB ports affects the price. The USB port are used as song reading and charging. Dual USB charging requires charging IC which raise voltage and electric current to 5V, 2A. Double USB is 1 yuan more expensive than single USB.
RGB lights add resistance and IC for controlling RGB lights. RGB lights affect the price, which is 1-2 yuan more expensive than monochrome ones.
Ok, this is some of the reasons making the different price of the MP3.
