iPhone 14 Series Protective Film Exposure: Isn't this an Android machine?

It seems that it is going to Be May, and it is further from Apple's autumn new product launch, and there are more and more news about the iPhone 14 series. Recently, a digital blogger @ApplesClear exposed a picture of a suspected iPhone 14 series protective film. The logo in the figure can be seen that the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max still use the design of iron bangs, while the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max use the "exclamation point" shape that everyone spits. If the model is not marked in the figure, in fact, everyone will mistakenly think that this is the new machine protective film to be released by which domestic mobile phone brand.

It is worth noting that there has been relevant news that because the sales of the mini series have not met expectations, Apple will cut the mini series on the next generation of products, and the pictures flowing out this time seem to support this. But if that's the case, it would cause small-screen enthusiasts to turn to the iPhone SE.

According to earlier statements, the reason why Apple gave up "iron bangs" is to increase the screen ratio, and the reason for choosing the exclamation point is that it is unwilling to give up 3D Face ID. In the domestic mobile phones generally use screen fingerprint unlocking and face unlocking today, Apple has always believed that fingerprint unlocking is inconvenient, so as to adhere to Face ID, even if now iOS 15.4 supports unlock payment with mask recognition, but also only supports new models after the iPhone 12 series, such as iPhone 11 series, iPhone X and other models of users are still very inconvenient, but there are also a small number of users feel that in addition to the design of the exclamation point, there are actually better options, Or you can directly not change, after all, the "iron bangs" shape has become a classic design after the Home button, and the whole screen is actually not very important for users.

After entering the engineering phase, everything has become a foregone conclusion, the iPhone 14 series includes the 6.1-inch iPhone 14, the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Max, the 6.1-inch iPhone 14 Pro, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Pro Max. However, in more detailed parameters have not been officially confirmed, the current network rumors are that the image will be upgraded, equipped with a 48 million pixel image module, but limited to the iPhone 14 Pro series models, iPhone 14 models will still use ancestral 12 million pixel lenses.

In terms of performance core configuration, the iPhone 14 series will be equipped with A16 processor, but A16 is a small modification of A15, Apple only chose this naming method for market reasons, the real A16 processor is named A16 Pro, only equipped in the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max. In addition, because the iPhone 14 Pro series is a little thicker, it is speculated that it may be an effort to increase the endurance of the crotch, and it is difficult to say how the follow-up flight capabilities of the future listing are.

Finally, in terms of price, Bloomberg reporter Mark Gurman said that the price of the iPhone 14 Max will be "greatly reduced", and the price is expected to be at least $200 cheaper than the iPhone 13 Pro Max (about 1300 yuan), to know that the IPhone 13 Pro Max US version is from 1099 US dollars (about 7242 yuan), and the price of the National Bank version is 8999 yuan, minus 200 US dollars is the iPhone 14 Max prices start at $899 and cost about RMB 5,899; Then there's the iPhone 14 Pro version for $1,099 (about 7,242 yuan) and the iPhone 14 Pro Max for $1,199 (about $7,901), which is $100 more expensive than the iPhone 13 in the same series. So in this calculation, the large-screen iPhone 14 Max is less than six thousand pieces, which seems to be worth starting.

In addition to these news, the news about the postponement of Apple's autumn conference in the past two days has also spread on the Internet. According to people familiar with the matter, due to production capacity and other issues, the entire iPhone 14 series that was originally scheduled to start trial production in early May will be shelved, and according to this rhythm, mass production will also be greatly affected, resulting in the release of the iPhone 14 series will be postponed, the conference may be postponed from September to mid-October, and the first batch of centralized shipments will be at the end of November at the earliest. But there is also news that Apple will still release the iPhone 14 in September, and will start shipping the iPhone 14 and iPhone 14 Max as soon as the end of October; The iPhone 14 Pro and 14 Pro Max will be 1-2 months late, and shipments will not be concentrated until the end of the year.

Or that sentence, before Apple did not give a corresponding answer, everyone is still cautious about eating melon, but the probability of the new machine design is already "real melon", but it does not hurt to eat. As for the postponement of the press conference and the postponement of shipments, it is actually a little early for now, and everyone is not in a hurry to guess.
