iPhone 14 is almost ruined, and everyone is more concerned about the Lingdong Island design of iPhone 14 Pro. This can definitely be said to be a design that has reversed reputation. As soon as it appears, it reversed Apple fans' concerns about the iPhone 14 Pro hole-punch screen.
To be honest, our imagination of iPhone is still too barren. I only knew before that the iPhone 14 Pro would need to be changed from a notch screen to an exclamation point hole-punch screen. Many people also criticized , Apple for this, believing that Apple's aesthetic has plummeted.
Unexpectedly, Apple forced to dig holes in exclamation mark into long strips through UI transformation, and created a new interactive method: Lingdong Island. Lingdong Island is a design that takes advantage of the black non-luminous characteristics of OLED to give the hole-punching area certain functionality.
Apple transforms the exclamation mark hole into a symmetrical long strip in the form of a UI, ensuring visual symmetry. At the same time, the black notched part of the screen has become a constantly changing display area, which can push real-time pop-up windows such as reminders, notifications, activities, etc., which you can simply understand as a floating notification area. The key point is that third-party APPs can also be adapted to Lingdong Island, and there is still possibility of continued development in the future.
question is here, why do most people think that Lingdong Island is in the right direction? In my opinion, the reason is simple.
When major manufacturers are doing their best to eliminate screen holes, Apple did the opposite and gave screen holes with Lingdong Island to a certain practicality. Face the defects, but using them to turn the defects into advantages is very clever.
Apple has actually created an unprecedented innovative idea, which makes the screen gap no longer a burden, but an interesting interaction. The idea of Android manufacturers seems to be limited to increasing the screen-to-body ratio, and there is no other way.
Of course, some people think that the design of Lingdong Island is essentially a compromise. Because the iPhone unlocking methods are different, Tianran has an additional Face ID module than Android phones, and the screen gap area cannot be reduced, so this is a bad idea.
But on the other hand, is high screen-to-body ratio really that important to consumers? In this case, why do the sliding cover structure, lift structure, and under-screen camera that can reach 100% screen-to-body ratio lose to the simple and rough hole-punching screen? To put it bluntly, what users value is not the absolute full screen, as long as the visual effects are harmonious.
But what I am more worried about is whether Android manufacturers will blindly follow Apple. It is obviously a hole-punch screen, but it also has a Lingdong Island to take advantage of the hot spots. Apple does this to turn waste into treasure, but doing this with a single hole-punched screen mobile phone is purely a matter of nothing to make trouble.
But no matter what, we have to admit: for iPhone, Lingdong Island is in the right direction. It is the best solution that Apple can do without giving up Face ID and under the existing technology conditions, and it also enhances the recognition of the iPhone.
or above is why most people think that the direction of iPhone 14's "Lingdong Island" is correct. What do you think about this? Welcome to share your views.
