Speaking of the iPhone 14 series released this year, it is polarized in terms of sales.
The reason is that Apple differentiates the Pro version and standard version models product strategy .
Among them, the iPhone 14 Pro series models are equipped with the latest A16 chip, and the rear camera has been increased to 48 million pixels, and it has brought new functions such as punch-hole screen appearance and smart island and screen-off display. In comparison, the two standard versions of iPhone 14 have almost no significant performance improvement. In addition to increasing the memory to 6GB,
is still equipped with the previous generation A15 chip, and there is almost no change in image performance.
Therefore, for users, it is obvious that there is no need to worry too long to make a choice between Pro and Standard version models.
At present, as long as the basic iPhone 14 is placed, you can basically get the spot stock quickly.
In contrast, the iPhone 14 Pro series has basically arrived for more than two weeks, which shows its popularity.
The same gap is also reflected in price changes in third-party markets.
According to Times Weekly, the price of the iPhone 14 standard version on Taobao Juhuasuan platform has dropped significantly recently.
In this regard, industry insiders found that the price changes at the beginning of the release of the iPhone 12 series in the past two years.
iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 series have just been released. Although the quotations of third-party platforms have dropped significantly, they are far less than the price reduction of iPhone 14.
At the same time, industry insiders recently exposed the latest third-party quotations for iPhone 14, of which the price of iPhone 14 256GB is generally around 6,300 yuan, which is 500 yuan lower than the official website.
It is worth mentioning that even the 256GB version of iPhone 13 after the price reduction on Apple's official website was only priced at 6,299 yuan, which is not much different from the iPhone 14 in the third-party market.
The reason is that the unsincere upgrade will obviously make users lose interest in this new phone.
On the other hand, the iPhone 14 basic model has sufficient stock, and the demand is not large, which has led to its price drop in third-party markets.
Of course, the cooldown of the iPhone 14 standard version does not mean that this model is useless.
For those "nail users" who are still using old models, the standard version of iPhone 14 is still worth buying.
Although the standard version of iPhone 14 does not have some Pro-level design and functions, the price advantage is also very obvious.
According to the current price reduction trend, the price of the iPhone 14 standard version on third-party platforms is likely to continue to decline.
With the arrival of promotional activities such as Double 11, the iPhone 14 standard version with price advantages may also be "very fragrant".
In addition, the performance of the iPhone 14 Pro series models is also strong all the way.
Previously, in a statement report to investors, JPMorgan analysts predicted that Apple's revenue this quarter is expected to reach US$88.6 billion due to the outstanding sales performance of the iPhone 14 Pro series.
Recently, JPMorgan analysts changed this forecast, predicting Apple's revenue in the fiscal quarter will reach $90 billion, setting a previous record.
At the same time, Apple's shipments of iPhone this fiscal quarter were 55 million units, which is a significant breakthrough compared with the previous expectation of 52 million.
Judging from the outstanding sales of the iPhone 14 Pro series, Apple's differentiation in product strategy this year is quite successful.
As the subsequent supply and demand relationship stabilizes, the problem of out-of-stock of the iPhone 14 Pro series models will be gradually alleviated, and the price is likely to gradually decline.
If you want to buy the iPhone 14 Pro series, you can wait and see and wait for the changes in the market.
