To say that Apple's mobile phone can kill Android in a second, it is estimated that it will attract a wave of opposition. But if you only blow Apple's chips, no one will dare to come out and fight.
The strength of Apple's chips has made people wonder whether this is a mobile phone company or a chip company. As we all know, the biggest problem of Android phones is that the memory is easy to fill, the phone is easy to card, Apple mobile phones rarely encounter this problem, the reason behind it is the chip level.
Chip, Apple's life.
In particular, the iPhone 14 to be released this year will be equipped with A16 chips, and the A16 will use a 4nm process, and the performance is expected to be greatly improved.
Apple mobile phones also have shortcomings, one of the major problems is the data interface problem. At present, whether it is a Microsoft computer or an Android mobile phone, it is gradually unifying the interface standard, and the Type-C interface has gradually become mainstream. This interface has high data transmission efficiency, fast charging speed, and does not need to divide the head, does not need to manage the interface direction, and is very convenient to use.
Apple mobile phones have always used the Lightning interface, charging slowly and product compatibility is not good. Many fruit powder go out, if you forget to bring a charging cable, you have to borrow a circle to borrow, and Android users can share the charging cable, leaving Apple alone.
The two interfaces, charging efficiency and data transmission efficiency are really very different.
In fact, Apple has also compromised in the past two years, at present, the entire iPad Pro series, iPad Air 4/5, iPad mini 6, etc. have been replaced by type-C interfaces. As for the upcoming iPhone 14, judging from the outflow cad design drawings, it is more like a Lightning interface.
Because Type-C is the female port, the corresponding interface slot of the mobile phone should have a contact piece similar to the "tongue", and the Lightning socket is a male port, so the slot is empty.
Both the performance of the iPhone and the convenience of the Type-C interface have created the initial motivation of the fruit fans to change the iPhone.
In October 2021, the god of the extranet converted the iPhone X mobile phone in his hand into a Type-C interface, which was later auctioned on eBay, due to the transparent process and the completion of the transformation, the phone was finally sold at an auction price of 86,001 US dollars (about 546,000 yuan).
Magic modification interface, not only to change a slot so simple, but also the replacement of many internal components.
Just changing the interface, actually auctioned at a price of more than 50 times the original value of the mobile phone, which is enough to see that the fruit powder is bitter and lightning for a long time.
In January 2022, another god modified the iPhone X into a Type-C interface, using 20% carbon fiber material at the port and fixing the interface with strong glue. Although the glue appears to be a bit rough on the interface, this iPhone X unexpectedly has one more "stunt", that is, it supports IPX 8 dustproof and waterproof.
However, the phone was later auctioned for only $3,000 (about 19,077 yuan). Although there is still a premium, the price is so much worse than the first part, in addition to the "first-person effect", it is also related to the quality of the design.
The first C-port iPhone X is not only as simple as changing the interface, but also adds fast charging and two-way charging functions on this basis, while the second one does not have these two functions. But in any case, there is a premium, which means that fruit fans are really looking forward to the C-mouth iPhone.
As for why Apple is still unwilling to "change its mouth"? Presumably it is the supply chain reason, after all, after so many years of Lightning, the upstream and downstream industry chains are at stake, and sudden abandonment will produce no small shock.
Hurry up and "change your mouth", fans can't wait.
In fact, Apple has always been a conservative and progressive technology company. The design of the home button follows the 8th generation of mobile phones, and the liu hai screen has also been used from the iPhone X to the iPhone 13, until the iPhone 14 was changed to a digging screen, and even the size of the phone was not easily changed.
Apple put more energy on improving the chip and system experience, and because of this, many "nail households" have been generated, and they have not hesitated to use magic to iterate on mobile phones, such as changing from iPhone 5 to iPhone 5s, transforming iPhone 6 into iPhone 6s, as for iPhone 11, iPhone 12 and iPhone 13, the three generations of products that look similar, can be changed at will.
Although Apple officials are gradually progressing, fruit fans have achieved "both and want" by magic reform, raising the ceiling of the mobile phone industry by several levels.
Can you recognize the real iPhone 12 and the magic iPhone 12?
Apple, if you don't get out of the folding screen mobile phone, I don't think it will be long before the fruit powder itself has changed out. Let's push it!
