If there is no surprise, based on the release date of iPhone in previous years.
There are still two months to about the first two weeks of September. The iPhone 14 series should be about to meet us!
In the period before the release, and apple have been causing trouble recently.
What about "Japanese model price increases", "U.S. lowers trade-in prices", "5G baseband development failure", etc... There are also recent news about the iPhone 14 series models.
A series of chain reactions also made me very curious about what kind of "sexy operation" Apple will perform on the iPhone 14 series this time.
hard squeeze toothpaste?
Apple squeezing toothpaste on the iPhone is no longer a matter of one generation or two! We are also very clear about
.
Although the upgrade range of the updated models is indeed not as drastic as the Android models, Apple has never been stingy with upgrading the chips.
From A13 to A14, A14 to A15...
uses iPhone 12 What was said at the press conference:
At present, in terms of mobile phone chip performance, the A series is already far ahead of the industry by 1-1.5 generations.
originally thought that this year’s iPhone 14 series would be equipped with the latest and more powerful A16 chip to continue its efforts.
Tianfeng International analyst Ming-Chi Kuo suddenly reported:
"Only higher-end models such as iPhone 14 Pro will use the latest A16 processor."
This means that if you want to use the latest A16, you must buy 14 Pro or 14 Pro Max to enjoy the performance of the new A-series chips.
On the contrary, the regular model 14 or 14 Max (may also be called Plus) is not equipped with the latest A16 chip. In other words, this time A16 is a Pro model with “ exclusive ”.
4 and 14 Max (may also be called Plus) are reported to use the previous generation A15 chip ( Guozi speculates that it may be the full-blooded A15 on the 13 Pro, not the residual-blooded A15 on the 13 and 13 mini).
Because judging from the performance increase currently revealed:
A16 has a 42% improvement in overall CPU performance compared to the previous generation A15, and GPU has a 35% overall improvement.
Judging from the current chip upgrade rate, the improvement is still quite huge.
If the remaining A15 is still used, then the performance gap between the Pro model and the regular model will be even greater, almost a generation apart...
Is this done?
Obviously, Apple wants to further widen the gap between the Pro model and the regular version, thereby prompting more users to choose to buy the more expensive Pro version.
The conventional model uses the old chip of the previous generation Pro, which can better digest inventory, save the cost of new product materials, and increase gross profit.
works...that's very Apple!
Ming-Chi Kuo said: This will significantly increase the shipment proportion of high-end iPhone models this year to about 55-60%.
This compares to 40–50% in the past.
He also said that future iPhone Pro models will continue to use this solution.
This means that starting from the iPhone 14 series, regular models will be treated differently!
and future generations will also adopt this operation.
Will you still choose a non-Pro model?
Then the problem is coming!
If, as is now revealed, regular non-Pro models such as the iPhone 14 cannot keep up with the previous generation iPhone 13 in terms of appearance and chips, will this new generation of models still be attractive?
Guozi feels that there will still be some, but compared to the past, there will definitely be a certain amount of room for consideration.
At least when consumers buy, they will give it more thought, instead of "buying the Pro if you have money, and buying the regular model if you don't have money" as before.
However, Guozi feels that the regular model iPhone 14 has a similar appearance to the iPhone 13 and still uses an A15 chip, so it will be difficult for Apple to promote .
Anyway, if you change the name of A15, or put on a vest for A16, it is better than using A15 directly, okay? Although A15 will be at the first-tier level next year.
But it has the same appearance, the same chip, and the screen is still not high-definition. I really don’t know what is outstanding about iPhone 14!
Mainly recommends iPhone 14 Max (may also be called Plus) What is "bigger than bigger"?
or "the only difference is that it is different everywhere"?
The only thing Guozi can think of is to reduce the price... or reduce the price!
However, just worry about it as fruit! After all, it’s not a year to complain, but after looking at the sales...
Apple has already planned
Actually, let’s do it this way! This is not the first time for Apple...
Let’s not talk about it before. In this generation of iPhone 13 series, Apple has already treated 13 and 13 Pro differently. It can be regarded as the first signs!
But I didn’t expect Apple to be so straightforward and start operating it directly on the next generation iPhone 14.
If that’s the case! If you want to experience the latest A-series chips in the future, you will have to spend more money on the more expensive Pro model.
Anthony, a recent whistleblower, listed the prices of iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max:
iPhone 14 Pro is priced at US$1,099 (approximately 7352.31 yuan)
iPhone 14 Pro Max is priced at US$1,199 (approximately 8 021.31 yuan )
In short, as far as this generation is concerned, if the 14 is really as bad as the current leaks say, then Guozi feels that the previous generation 13 or 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max are a good choice.
also has the same full-blooded A15 chip, similar appearance, but has pro-level excellent workmanship and texture, as well as 120Hz high refresh rate and a better screen.
right? And at that time, the price of 13 Pro will drop across the board, to between 14 and 14 Max (may also be called Plus) . Not to mention the high storage version of
3, it is not a dream to drop to around 4000.
Huh? So it seems that buying 13 Pro next generation is really good. Sure enough, Wang Shouyi did not lie to us.
is just... Here comes the problem! If this is done, will the future SE series use the latest A series chips? Or the previous generation A series chip?
