Everyone knows that many of the "innovative" designs of Apple will gradually evolve into "family style".
For example, the notch screen that only appeared on iPhones before, later came to MacBook Pro, which is called to increase the screen-to-body ratio.
Since the press conference of the iPhone 14 series, Heroes have seen news about "Lingdong Island" every day.
For example, in order to keep it confidential, Apple deliberately went to Jamaica and secretly registered iPhone 14 pro's "Lingdong Island" trademark.
This news was reported on September 11, Bloomberg Mark Gurman revealed that In July this year, Apple went to Jamaica, where it submitted its trademark application for "Dynamic Island" for the first time.
Because in order to register a trademark in Jamaica, you must apply offline, and online inquiries are not supported. No wonder, we have never heard of revelations about "Lingdong Island" before the press conference.
In fact, let’s think about it carefully, “Lingdong Island” is indeed quite interesting.
As this true vice president said, What everyone has always criticized is that it is in 2022 that Apple still retains its ancestral bangs.
After the "Lingdong Island" came out, this hole-punched bangs actually became the focus of hot sales.
So, many people are concerned now, will "Lingdong Island" come to other Apple products?
such as iPad Pro and MacBook Pro.
Will Apple continue "Lingdong Island" to other products in the future? don't know yet, but some designers have also made the renderings of iPad Pro's "Lingdong Island".
If there is "Lingdong Island" on iPad Pro in the future, that's probably the case.
Recently, Parker Ortolani, a foreign graphic designer - Parker Ortolani, was imagining how "Lingdong Island" works on the new iPad Pro.
and directly designed his idea, and then posted a post as follows:
We all know that iPad is different from iPhone, is used in landscape mode in most cases.
The first puzzle is that it does not have fixed bangs. In other words, no matter how you design it, you can't do it like on your iPhone.
In layman's terms, It can be flexible, but it has no island. . .
So, this designer named Parker Ortolani fully utilized the characteristics of no fixed islands on iPad Pro and designed multiple "spiritual islands" for iPad, which he called "Island Menus".
His design, the Lingdong Island on iPad Pro can improve multitasking because it allows "application program to be located at the top of the display", while providing a shortcut menu for quick access. How to say
? Judging from the pictures he posted, is like adding a widget to the menu bar.
is really convenient, but it feels like it takes up a part of the screen space directly.
The Lingdong Island on iPhone, a large part of should be large and fixed. If you don’t innovate, it will be difficult for fans to pay.
Since there is no relevant hardware design on the iPad, if imposes Lingdong Island, it will feel like it is a bit "snake-adding".
However, if designed to hide the closed shortcut taskbar at any time, is acceptable.
After all, not everyone is. likes to have this small black circle occupying space at the top of the screen.
, especially now smart devices are transitioning to full screen , trying to improve the screen-to-body ratio as much as possible. iOS also has many shortcuts/widgets to implement quick operations.
So, may not be so necessary on the Lingdong Island on iPad Pro.
However, don’t forget that MacBook Pro has bangs.
Some netizens have predicted that Apple will add the Face ID and "Lingdong Island" of iPhone 14 pro to the MacBook series in the future.
Using the more powerful M series chip, achieves a more flexible software and hardware interactive experience!
Here the hero wants to ask MacBook Pro users, do you want to let the Lingdong Island function come to MacBook Pro?
If you were asked to design Lingdong Island on MacBook Pro, What operations would you like to implement?
Currently many bloggers speculate that Lingdong Island is just a transitional product before the under-screen technology is mature. In the future, whether it is MacBook, it will definitely be transitioning like a full screen.
There are few full-screen phones on the market now, and , there are still a few. In a while, full-screen devices may be everywhere.
Don’t say that the first person to eat crabs is , But when others eat, you can’t still retain some “oldering functions”, right?
