Apple The current leader Cook has two sword techniques, one is called squeezing toothpaste and the other is called cutting leeks. These two tricks are usually not used to keep you in the bottom of the box, but to use them as you see them, and countless people are involved in the game. Their existence also made Cook famous and shocked many people.
Many people are asking, are Cook’s two moves really so powerful, can he dominate the world? In fact, they don’t know that although Cook’s two moves are called squeezing toothpaste and cutting leeks, he always uses some fake moves to confuse his opponent and make the opponent fool. Many times, you get caught off guard.
For example, this time, he added new changes to the trick of cutting leeks, which taught us that it was unexpected.
squeezing toothpaste is so expensive, Cook's knife skills are really skillful
On the morning of the 20th, the latest iPad series iPad 10 began to accept pre-orders and will be released on the 26th. It is a good thing to promote new products, but friends soon discovered that the price of the new iPad is a large rank higher than before.
Among them, the 2022 new iPad Pro 11 inch is 600 yuan more expensive than the previous generation, starting at 6,799 yuan; the iPad Pro 12.9 inch is 800 yuan more expensive than the previous generation, starting at 9,299 yuan; what is even more exaggerated is that the starting price of iPad 10 reaches 3,599 yuan, which is a total of 1,000 yuan more expensive than the previous generation.
price increase by 1,000 yuan, which is somewhat rare and unscientific in the electronic consumption industry. But do you think that's it? The price of the new iPad is shocking. In order to prevent consumers from being scared away by the high price, Cook chose to go back and buy the old model. So, Cook predicted the consumer's move in advance and increased the old iPad.
For example, the price of iPad 9 has risen to 2,599 yuan, which is 100 higher than the starting price last year; the iPad Air 5 has risen to 4,799 yuan, which is 400 yuan more than the launch price, etc.
But the problem is that the price will increase, and the iPad's update this time cannot be considered excellent. The iPad 10 can still understand that the chip, screen, power button, and charging hole have changed, but it is beyond reason to be expensive for one thousand yuan. In addition to the chip upgrade, the latest iPad Pro has almost no changes, and it also has to increase its price by 600 or 800, looking like it is afraid it can be sold.
can only say that Cook just squeezes toothpaste, but it’s still so expensive. It seems that he has no sincerity at all.
is also skilled in cutting leeks
This time, there is another interesting thing about the iPad update, that is, the charging interface has changed from Lightning interface to USB-C interface. To be honest, it should have been done long ago. Cook stared at Lightning's connection every day, making Europe specifically legislative to address this.
, however, although Cook chose to compromise, he still used this to "make another wave". It is understood that although iPad 10 has been changed to a USB-C interface, it only supports the first generation of Apple Pencil. It is well known that the first generation of Apple Pencil cannot be charged with USB-C interface.
so is it stuck in a dead loop? Of course not. Cook launched a converter worth 67 yuan in his own store. This converter can be connected to USB-C data cable at one end and Apple Pencil at the other end. This way, it will be connected to another.
The problem is that this thing costs 67 yuan. For some consumers who are used to using Apple Pencil, should they buy it or not? If you don’t buy it, it’s useless; if you buy it, you feel that it’s strange, so you’ll have to spend 67 yuan more. In fact, there is no need to be confused, it’s just that Cook is trying to cut leeks.
Although the knife method is very useful, it will be backfired sooner or later by
Cook, these two knife methods are very useful and helped Apple make a lot of money. But according to my opinion, this is not a long-term solution, and it will sooner or later encounter a backlash. What do you think of everyone?
