Home and foreign netizens also immediately started the "complaint discussion" mode. Among them, the one that received the most likes was "Lingdong Island", and the price and accessories of Apple's new products continued to be the target of ridicule.

Lingdong Island is well received

The biggest surprise at Apple's new product launch this year is that the "notch screen" of the iPhone 14 Pro version has become smaller and becomes a "pill screen" and an interactive function has been added. Apple named it "Lingdong Island". Apple has designed a complete set of interactive UIs for Lingdong Island, making the interaction between virtual software and hardware smoother.

In fact, before the press conference, the iPhone 14 Pro series screen hole-punch design was expected to change from "bangs" to "pill" shape, becoming the biggest point of frustration. However, the introduction of Lingdong Island has become a highlight.

"The innovation in the front camera is very smart. I mean the thing called Lingdong Island now. This is very apple." Some netizens said this.

Some netizens said: "Lingdong Island is one of my favorite surprises. In hindsight, this also explains many design decisions Apple has made on iOS recently. They have been making long-term plans."

A Weibo user said: "This time, the iPhone 14 is really not interesting. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an iPhone 13S. It has the same bangs and the same processor. The biggest upgrade this time is eSIM. The other is satellite communication similar to Huawei two days ago. The first one is basically difficult to popularize in China. The second satellite communication is meaningless to most users. I said the same thing a few days ago."

Some netizens said: "As Apple re-released iPhone13 again? 14 has no improvement, the chef really has you, and he deserves to be the nemesis of inventory, and this year's sales rely on pro."

This time, the iPhone 1 The gap between the 14 and the Pro series is significantly widening. In terms of processor, the 14 uses the previous generation A15 chip, while the 14 Pro is a brand new A16 chip, and its performance is once again far exceeding the A15. Interestingly, Apple did not introduce the characteristics of the A16 chip at the press conference. Some netizens joked that perhaps it was because they were afraid that after talking about the performance of the A16, no one would pay for the iPhone 14 that uses the A15 chip. In terms of cameras, the 14 uses 1200 pixels, while the 14 Pro has been upgraded to 48 million pixels. In terms of color matching of

"I was disappointed with this purple color of pro. The elegant and lively temperament of purple, as well as the graceful and luxurious feeling of purple, came from the east, and I got a frost-like purple eggplant." A Weibo user complained like this.

It is worth noting that the entire series of the US version of iPhone 14 does not support physical SIM cards, and uses eSIM technology, which means that if you purchase the US version of iPhone 14, you may not be able to use it directly in China. Although the three major operators have approved eSIM technology application services, the current domestic version of iPhone 14 still uses physical SIM card slot.

expensive

Although the entry-level model of iPhone 14 is consistent with the 13 series, the three models with larger capacity will increase by 100 to 500 yuan in the future. Especially the most expensive version of the 1TB iPhone 14 Pro Max, priced at 13,499 yuan, is the most expensive Apple phone ever.

Before the press conference, many experts revealed that the average price of the iPhone 14 series may rise this time, the reason is that the price of the two Pro models will increase by $100-150, but judging from the official price, the price in the United States has not increased, and it remains the same price as the previous generation of iPhone 13.

This time Apple also launched the Apple Watch Ultra smart watch, which starts at 6,299 yuan in China, which is even more expensive than the entry-level model of the iPhone 14.

"Interesting, mobile phones (iPhone 14) and watches (Apple Watch Ultra) are now at the same price." Some netizens complained on Twitter .

This time, Apple designed a lanyard port for AirPods Pro 2 ingeniously. There is also a lanyard that matches AirPods Pro 2, and the official price is 98 yuan. Perhaps it is the lowest-priced new product this time, but in the eyes of many people, it is also the "most expensive" single product.

"The biggest change in the appearance of AirPods Pro 2 is that a lanyard hole is added on the side. At first, I thought this was really an unnecessary design. It was not until I saw Apple launching an Incase lanyard that costs 98 yuan, I suddenly realized it!" Some netizens said this.
