In the blink of an eye, the beautiful New Year's Day holiday is over, which also means that 2022 officially opens~
During the holidays, there is also a lot of news in the circle. Among them, the most concerned is naturally Apple's new products in 2022.
This time a lot of renderings were exposed, compared to the previous credibility +1.
According to Apple, the tradition of "two years a small change, four years a big change". The iPad Pro, which adopted a right-angled bezel in 2018, will have a big change this year.
iPad Pro brand new design
Among them, the most obvious perception is that the border is narrowed~
(Concept map)
Eh, Brother Ji advised everyone not to get excited.
Although the narrowing of the border is not false, this narrowing may not be much like imagined.
Under this dark wallpaper, hidden are the same bangs as on the iPhone.
Change a gorgeous wallpaper for everyone to see:
Wuhu, welcome to join the Liu Hai family~
Don't be too upset, this is just a rendering, there is not much evidence yet, can really hammer the existence of bangs.
The information on the hardware parameters is more credible.
For example, wireless charging and reverse charging, this basically did not run.
You know, the iPad sits on a large battery, rounded up is equal to one more charging treasure.
Usually, IPhones and AirPods can be charged and charged.
However, the machine brother draws an important point: aluminum alloy and wireless charging water and fire are incompatible, so the new iPad Pro will use a glass back cover.
The result: weighting ~
Some fans will definitely be curious, as a mobile device, especially the iPad, the main portable product, the slightest change in weight will produce a butterfly effect.
For example, those who are accustomed to grabbing the iPad and going out are very sensitive to weight.
It seems that Apple has no intention of carrying it, and is even building a "giant" iPad.
How big is the so-called "giant" - 15 inches.
This is bigger than many notebooks, this is called a hammer portable device ah?
However, the media next said that this iPad is used as a smart home hub, not necessarily as a daily use. And Apple also intends to prioritize the lens landscape.
The same big screen as the notebook, the same bangs, horizontal priority... If you add magic keyboard.
This actually makes people feel that they are benchmarking the Mac.
Ever since Apple shouted, "Your next computer, why be a computer?" Later, both hardware and peripherals began to move closer to the MacBook, and now the design must be copied.
It's hard to say the pros and cons, but as a consumer, the machine brother hopes that one day the iPad can really "stand up".
That way I can just bring an iPad to work.
This side of the iPad may have to add bangs, but the other side is ready to go to the bangs. That's right, the machine brother is talking about the iPhone 14.
iPhone pills dig holes
Previously, the iPhone small digging rendering diagram has been rumored to be boiling. But here's the news that the iPhone 14 will use "pills" to dig holes.
Compared with the previous single-hole design, the machine brother feels that the credibility of the "pill" digging hole is higher. On the one hand, although last July Apple has applied for a patent for the sensor under the screen.
But in a year and a half, it is still difficult to really use it.

Moreover, this "pill" digging hole is revealed by the professional Apple breaking news media, and the credibility is even higher.
Without further ado, let's take a look at the picture:
As we can see in this rendering, Apple has turned the Face ID module, ambient light sensor, and front-facing lens into a small pill.
The parts that originally occupied a huge space were gathered together, which also meant that the top display space was larger.
Our long-awaited power number display will also return.
In addition to using "pills" to dig holes, the iPhone 14 will also be further "dematerialized".
Some time ago, some media reported that Apple has proposed to the Operator of the United States to prepare for the eSIM mobile phone before September this year.
In September, what it means is self-evident.
The brother of the machine helps everyone translate the meaning of Apple: Lao Tzu is going to come out with an eSIM mobile phone, and you must hurry up and make preparations.
So for the sake of transition, some carriers tested the waters with the iPhone 13 without SIM cards in the coming months.
It's still early, so we can wait and see.
ay... It occurred to me that the last time "dematerialized" AirPods was updated a few months ago. The AirPods Pro, on the other hand, has not been updated for two years.
This year, it's time to upgrade —
AirPods Pro 2
Some time ago, Gary Geaves, vice president of Apple Acoustics, was interviewed by the famous British fever magazine "WHAT HI-FI".
To say that "WHAT HI-FI" ah, can be described as the "Bible" of the audiophile circle, has always been ah, has been the compass of audiophiles of sound quality.
As a Bluetooth headset, sound quality has always been a big problem. In this regard, they will not miss such an opportunity to "set" Apple's words about Bluetooth sound quality.
Apple said it has made a lot of efforts in tuning the sound quality. Later, it was also admitted that due to the physical limitations of Bluetooth, the bandwidth was simply insufficient.
In short: improve the sound quality of Bluetooth headphones, it is difficult.
Well, since everything is said on this, we can't blame others for physical limitations. If the physical limits could really be broken, Newton's coffin board could not be pressed.
Just when everyone really thinks that the Bluetooth sound quality is so broken can broken.
Teacher Guo brought the big news - the new AirPods Pro will bring lossless audio support (ALAC).
Good guys, Apple is also starting to fool people.
With lossless audio, other updates are less important — like the charging case sound revealed earlier.
But the machine brother still said that, once this thing is lost, even if it is holding a loudspeaker and shouting, I can't hear it.
Mac series
In addition to the above products, the MacBook Air will also usher in updates.
Processor routine upgrade to M2 Needless to say~
Like the new Pro, the Air's appearance will also be greatly changed, but the colors will be aligned with the iMac's colorful color scheme, and the old traditional Magsafe will also return to strength.
Not surprisingly, these will be released in the second half of this year.
But there's a product that it's going to see you in a few months.
It's a 27-inch iMac
Recently, suppliers have started small-scale production.
Through the information of various media, the design elements of this 27-inch iMac, like the previous 24-inch iMac, are extremely flat.
However, there will be a darker color on the color. At the same time, it will be equipped with an M1 Pro or M1 Max processor.
Similarly, it will also be equipped with mini-LED, ProMotion, which are already available on the new Pro.
But it's still early, and not much is known. But over time, hardware information becomes more and more accurate.
In short, this year, Apple will bring a large number of products, in addition to these, there are also head-mounted displays, SE 3 and the new Mac mini.
So this year, do you plan to update your own equipment?
