The technology Spring Festival Gala in September each year was postponed to October and November this year. There are expectations and disappointments in several Apple launches starting in September, but I am used to Apple's toothpaste and still have to change the iPhone that I change once a year. The MacBook Pro with

M1 chip was originally a wait-and-see attitude. The original plan was to wait and see when the 14-inch mbp was launched next year and then replace the MacBook Air that I just bought in June this year. Unexpectedly, after the listing, I was applauded and couldn't help but change one.

This article does not score or evaluate, but only talks about its usage experience, and introduces a few peripherals that you are using. There are a lot of professional reviews online, so I won’t show off my skills. I think the experience of using is more important. Let’s start with the iPhone.

iPhone X was basically the rhythm of Android and iPhone one year before. As the Apple ecosystem became more and more mature, I gradually bought all the Apple family buckets. Being trapped in the Apple ecosystem, the main phone after the iPhone X has always been the iPhone.

There are all kinds of revelations before the Apple press conference every year. The closer the time of the press conference, the more reliable it is. I have the iPad Pro and Apple Watch 4 generations in my hand, so the iPad Air 4 and Apple Watch 6 at the first press conference did not have the motivation to replace it with new ones. The updates for the 5th and 6th generations of Apple Watch are too small. After the release of

12 and 12pro, I went to the Apple direct store and went to touch it. To be honest, the 12 feels much better than the 11 pro max I had at that time. It is very light and is suitable for one-handed operation. However, I am used to using large screens and still made up my mind to wait patiently for the release of 12 pro max. After the

12 pro max was released, there was no time to see the physical items, so I ordered two units on the official website after it was launched. Apple's official website is really weaker than , Taobao, , and JD.com. After the sale starts at 9 o'clock, it has been reported in various errors. I remember that it took me more than half an hour to order two units. The delivery time was early December. In comparison, I feel how awesome Taobao and JD.com, which has been baptized by Double Eleven 618 for a long time.

I remember that when the iPhone X was released, the official website ordered and shipped for too long, so I tried to make an appointment at Apple's official website at 6 o'clock in the morning to buy it. I got up early and made an appointment for several days but couldn't get it. In the end, I waited for the official website to ship it. This time I thought there was no chance to make an appointment. After Daren reminded me, he easily made an appointment with two 12 pro max the next morning. He canceled the official website order that day and went to the direct store to buy it.

The afternoon time for reservation, but in fact, you can pick up the goods in advance if you arrive early, and you don’t have to wait until the time you make reservation. After entering the store, the Apple guy registered his ID card and scanned the QR code to make an appointment, he quickly took two units. The store took a casual photo and went home without removing it.

I touched the mini in the store and I also liked it very much. The feel is invincible in the iPhone. I have the urge to buy it as a backup machine

Choose 2 blue 256G. 256 is not enough for me if the photos are all locally present, but now the photos are all on iCloud, so there is no problem. Generally, the available space is about 100G. iCloud space is bought 2T all the way to share with your family.

This year's unboxing is the easiest, with only one thread

The thickness of the two 12 boxes is about the same as the thickness of last year's 11 boxes. Apple not only saves chargers and headphones, but also saves a lot of transportation costs. The same volume container can contain nearly 2 times that of 11.

Let’s take a look at the unboxing of 11pro max.

12 pro max blue. I personally like

blue stainless steel border has a good texture, and its appearance is still improved compared to 11max.

Then look at the green 11 pro max

and compare together. 12max is still obviously one circle larger than 11max. In terms of color, blue and green are good. My wife has also joined the iPhone X, which is a phone-preparing machine. The iPhone X has been used for 3 years now, so there is no problem. It feels very comfortable and one-handed operation is also very convenient.

What is the experience of using iPhone 12 pro Max

  1. replacement has no freshness at all. It took 4 years to design a bang, and only Apple dares to do this. Has Apple completely given up innovation now? Completely turned into a toothpaste factory. I really miss the era of Nokia .
  2. Even if you just used xs max, 11 pro max, and 12 max in your hand, it feels full of weight. Especially when I lie on the bed and brush my phone before going to bed, I am always afraid of falling and smashing my front teeth. But you will get used to it in a few days. The border of
  3. becomes straighter, and the size is further enlarged than 11max, so the feel of 12max is not as good as 11max. To make the feel of it, buy 12/pro/mini
  4. screen compared to 11max without any visible improvement.
  5. photo comparison and video comparison of 11max, the focus is very fast, it is very bright and clear in dark light, and the anti-shake is very awesome. Night portrait, Dolby Vision, ProRAW format added, ultra-wide angle also has night view mode... playability is further improved. The
  6. signal has significantly improved compared to 11max. In the original 11max, where there is no signal or weak signal, you can now call normally. The Qualcomm baseband and the redesigned antenna have obvious effects. It is estimated that compared with , Huawei , it is still worse. As a basic skill of a mobile phone, the iPhone has finally reached the point where it can be used. When
  7. currently displays a 5g signal, it feels that the speed is not much faster than 4g. The battery life of
  8. feels slightly lower than that of 11max. According to my strength of use, I can barely last for a day.
  9. charging consumes more power. It turns out that the 18w charging head is obviously slower than 11max, and the peak power can reach 24w. It is difficult to break through the battery density, so the charging speed is very important. Xiaomi has 120w wired charging and 55w wireless charging. I hope Apple will not be pulled too far by the Android camp in terms of charging speed.
  10. People are not interested in MagSafe at all. Nowadays, they dare to call fast charging at 15w, haha. Moreover, the magnetic suction is on the back. When charging, you have to suck it up. After charging, you have to pull it down. There is not much difference between sucking and pulling it down. Isn’t it a big difference between plugging and unplugging the wired charging? The charging speed is still slower than wired charging. Is it not good for me to charge directly with wired charging? Don't know what the meaning is. Two years ago, I bought a Xiaomi vertical wireless charging study for a few dozen yuan. It is very useful to put it on when working. It turns out that iPhone only supports wireless charging of 5w and 7.5w is a joke. After increasing it to 15w, it will definitely not be fast, it is barely usable.

When my 11 pro max was sold, the battery was still 100%. Many people on Salted Fish asked me if I had changed the battery. The final buyer also doubted whether there was a problem with the battery after using it for a year or not. I must ask me to use Aisi to test the battery before placing the final order. I think it may have something to do with my charging habits. I basically start charging when I use more than 30%, and then I don’t charge when I charge more than 90%. I charge and unplug the cable before going to bed. I never use my phone before going to bed at night and then charge it until dawn overnight. Do not over-discharge or over-charge lithium batteries, it is considered a small tip for charging.

Next, I will briefly comment on a few peripheral products. They are all used by me now. I dare not say whether it is suitable or not. I just share my experience of using it. Please take your needs. Let’s talk about headphones

In fact, it’s not recommended to buy AirPods 2 and AirPods Pro, so it is recommended to wait for new products.

AirPods 2 is comfortable to wear, but it is too soundproof. Listen to it indoors, and then gg outside. However, it is still very comfortable to lie on the bed and listen to music with AirPods until you fall asleep. If you don’t have in-ear earbuds, you can just roll on the bed.

AirPods Pro is actually pretty good to use. It’s OK to cancel noise and wear it, and the sound quality is not as bad as mentioned on the Internet.In addition, it is now very powerful to automatically switch between Apple's multiple devices, and it will automatically connect when you turn on your phone, iPad, etc. But it may be a design problem. My AirPods Pro has been replaced 3 times, and it has sizzling noises. Recently, my ears are not good, and it is still an old problem. Apple also issued an announcement on this issue.

wireless headphones are also a good choice. Senhai’s wireless steamed bun 2nd generation

1 generation I bought it as soon as it was released, and the second generation was launched and the first generation was released. The second generation has filled the shortcomings of the first generation battery life and noise reduction. If you leave the first generation there for a few days without using electricity, you will shine on your own. The second generation has no problem, and the battery life is strong. I only reported that the battery life is low after listening to it for 6 hours at most. The sound quality is also good, and it is another good choice outside of AirPods Pro. It is not as convenient as switching between multiple Apple devices.

Talk about the phone case again.

I haven't bought too much this year. At present, the main shells are the three

0 of the three shells. The most protective of these three shells is the original silicone shell. The thickest

I still chose blue

The effect on the machine is OK, but silicone is easy to get oil and gray

shell is higher than the screen, and has a certain thickness

11max Use original silicone and skin shell for the most time. The two shells use about four or five months respectively, and they have obvious wear. The leather shell changed from blue to black, and the wear was more obvious than the silicone shell. Students who want to buy original shells should consider

transparent shells, they don’t want to buy original shells from Apple, they are stupid and expensive. I bought an AirJacket

for a few days, it was pretty good

chose a high-transparent one, which can basically restore the original color, and there is no rainbow pattern on the back. The disadvantage is that it is easy to get dust in, and it is obvious that the shell of

has a certain thickness and has a certain protection. Wearing and removing is easier than the previous Air Jacket

side shell is higher than the button, and sometimes you can't press it when your thumb is big.

Overall, if you like transparent shells, Air Jacket is a good choice.

The last one is this Kevlar mobile phone case, which is said to have a better feel than a bare metal,

mobile phone case, the weight of 10 grams is indeed light,

has a logo and number

on the machine, and the feel is indeed better than that of a bare metal. Why do I say later that

is not all included? The button part and the upper and lower parts of the phone are exposed.

For me, the biggest problem with this shell is at the bottom. The phone case under the charging port is a bit raised

Usually when I hold the phone with one hand, I am used to using my little finger to block the phone to prevent it from falling. The raised part of the bottom shell of Pitaka just presses against the little finger, which is a bit sharp and it hurts a lot after using it for a long time.

Many people say I'm not going to buy a care and run naked. In fact, the stainless steel border of the bare metal is very slippery, which is not so easy to pick up when the phone is placed flat on the table, especially when the hands are wet. Although this ultra-thin Kevlar shell is doubtful about the protection of falling phones, the clear fiber texture increases friction, which not only makes it easy to pick up, but also reduces the probability of slipping and falling hands. So some people say that putting this shell feels better than having a bare metal, and that's why. The bare metal does slip a little.

I compared Benks, which are also made of Kevlar materials, and Pitaka's workmanship and materials are still advantageous. It may not be seen in the photo. In fact, the surface of Benks' Kevla shell seems to have a layer of glue, which feels sticky and has less friction than Pikata and is easier to slip.

Look at the side, this layer of colloid may be more obvious

is just full-inclusive, and the feel at the bottom is definitely better than Pitaka. The overall size is also very light and has better protection than Pitaka. It is also a good choice for those who like Kevlar.

Of course, Evutec's Kevla shell is also good. I have used both xs max and 11 pro max, and it is worth recommending.

2C1A. The maximum power of both C ports is 65w. When charging computers and mobile phones at the same time, C1 outputs 45w, C2 outputs 18w

Mainstream charging protocols support

I also bought a single-port Xiaomi, which is very small, but because there are many devices to charge in your hand, there are very few single-ports

. I still recommend the S3 that is more recommended. Multiple ports are still more practical. Those 18w or 30w stand-alone charging heads are not recommended. After all, most computers now support Type C charging, and 65w heads can be charged with mobile phones. One charging head is enough when you go out or at home. Of course, a high-power gaming laptop 65w is definitely not enough. You can consider 100w or honestly using the original charger.

volume expansion is slightly larger

However, the expansion plug can be shrinkable, Xiaomi's cannot

People still like to use multiple mouths, which is convenient. However, in some hotels, the wall plugs of this kind of direct plug-in are very loose and easy to fall off

The main charging head currently used is the recruited S3, which is no problem to charge mobile phones, MacBook Pro and common digital products. Very small in size and convenient for traveling.

The power bank you usually carry with you is 18w, which is very small and the charging speed is OK

. This combination has been used for more than a year, and the experience is good. The Velcro tie that pulls the cart line is easy to fall off, but it ends up losing it. I bought this

film and got 3 185 pieces. The first time I used this film, it felt good, it was very thin, basically full coverage, high transparency, and smooth feel.

cable is used to using a 1.8-meter-long root at the head of the bed. You can use your phone while lying on the bed at night. There are many options available and don't expand it.

Let’s talk about MacBook Pro again. In June this year, I released the 15.4 MacBook Pro, 12-inch MacBook, and Huawei's MateBook x pro. I used to want to use a few units, but in fact, I was too lazy to exchange them and basically kept watching one unit and the others were all consumed. So I replaced it with a new 13-inch low-end MacBook Air, and wanted to transition to a 14-inch MBP next year... It feels good after half a year of use.

I originally wanted to wait until the 14-inch MacBook Pro is launched next year and I won’t change my computer for a few years. However, after the launch of the M1 MacBook Pro, the overwhelming reviews all said how awesome the M1 was, so I couldn't help but buy another one to experience the M1, and then buy a low-end version to transition... I'll consider whether to change it next year if I look at Apple's new MacBook product release.

Simple to open a box

Packaging, appearance, and accessories have not changed at all, and there is nothing new

The box is one circle larger than the air, and the cover display is different, mainly highlighting the air's thin

contents are the computer body, charger, and cable. In fact, the projection area of ​​the two books is almost the same, but the Pro's packaging box has thicker borders and better protection

chargers are different, pro is 61w and air is 30w. But I don't need it, there are any recruitment anyway. Generally, when the accessories on my mobile phone and computer are all brand new

pro deep space gray, air gold

air's gold color looks pretty at first glance, but it's not good to look at, and it's a little bit of rose gold. As a straight man in steel, gray is still suitable for me. When I bought the air, I was also gray and there was no stock and I chose gold.

air thin is a must

are all scissors foot keyboards. Although the feel is much worse than ThinkPad, it is much better than the previous butterfly keyboard.

screen is indeed better for pro. It may not be seen in the photo. The brightness is the same. The pro screen is more transparent, with higher contrast and more accurate and bright colors. Although the air is also a retina screen, it is still a bit white when it is placed with the pro screen. But if you don’t compare A, the air’s screen is actually OK. You get what you pay for.

pro's maximum brightness is 500 nits, and air is 400 nits

Tell me about the experience of using the M1 version of MacBook Pro in the past half month. My usage scenarios are just common software such as office, web page, office, WeChat, etc. Do not edit pictures, do not edit videos, and do not play games. The following and the experience of using the air in my hand are based on my usage scenario.

  1. speed is significantly improved, and the original air is also smooth, but occasionally there is lag. The M1 version basically has no lag. When you open the screen and light up the screen in seconds, you can enter the working state. When you open and close the APP, you can quickly. Common software such as office have no compatibility issues at all. However, the first time it starts, it will prompt that it will take about 20 seconds to install Rosetta, and then the office document will be opened in seconds. The battery life of
  2. is significantly improved, and it feels like it is 1.8-2 times the battery life of the air. The battery is very strong and there is no battery anxiety at all. The
  3. screen is indeed more transparent than the air and looks more comfortable. But the big frame of the aircraft carrier is still alive. I am quite concerned about the borders. There are fewer
  4. 2 Type C lightning interfaces, at least one should be one on one side, so it is convenient for the power supply to be on the left or right when charging. Of course, this requires a new design. The effect of
  5. is better than that of the air. You don’t need to bring a bose Bluetooth speaker on business trips. Although it is not as good as the 16-inch MacBook Pro, it is still OK to listen to music when doing documents.
  6. Big Sur can install apps for iPad and iPhone, but the experience is not good at the moment. First of all, it is difficult to search for commonly used APPs on your mobile phone, such as Aunt Zhang, Taobao, JD.com, etc., and it is also easy to search for counterfeit APPs. And all the apps marked that the

ipad version are still larger, such as the old version of Zhang iPad, which is still the old version that cannot be upgraded to the new version. The iPhone version of the APP is basically the size of a 6-inch mobile phone screen on the computer, and it cannot be resized at present. However, with Apple's ability and appeal, it should be only a matter of time before most commonly used APPs log in to Big Sur.

also recommend it to the surrounding area. I have always used Incase's inner cover, and it has good protection and workmanship. This one is thinner, but the four sides are well protected

sealing in magnetic sucking method. In actual measurement, it will not fall out

. Another one used in the same way has good protection, but is thicker. There is an extra zipper bag to hold some small objects

Internal flocking

In addition, when using a MacBook in the office or home, you can consider installing a 27-inch 4K Type C interface monitor, a Type C image sound output, charging, etc. I went to the office and plugged in. After get off work, I pulled out a cable and took the computer to leave. It was convenient for one word. The display screen with 4k or higher resolution is a good experience, and the large screen is more convenient to work than the MacBook Pro comes with a 13-inch screen.

For example, this one from Dell. There are many other brands, and many of them can choose from

Bluetooth touchpads are also necessary. The experience is better than the mouse. After all, the gesture operation of mac is very useful. I haven't used a mouse since I used a Mac. Just use the keyboard, just use it yourself.

is good, so I’m talking about it. It’s the end of the year. Be kind to yourself. Don’t hesitate to chop if you should buy Aunt Zhang.
