I don’t know when it started. It has been rumored in the industry that Apple will introduce a secondary screen on the new iPhone . This is not groundless, but the industry has leaked some of Apple’s patents, which seems to be revealing that Apple is expected to have a secondary screen behind the next iPhone, which may be next year’s iPhone 15 series. However, this new iPhone may not follow the previous naming idea, but claims to be iPhoneUItra, just like the Apple WatchUItra released this year, it is a brand new category.
Based on the information and patents of the leak, industry insiders have drawn a set of realistic iPhone UItra renderings. Although they are still in the leaking stage, I think the credibility is quite high, and such a design does not seem ugly? Interested Apple fans may wish to learn more about it in advance. Compared with the already released iPhone14 Pro series, the biggest difference is the back design. The back of the iPhone UItra is equipped with a camera module that spans the entire horizontal body, which is highly recognizable. On the left side of the camera module are three lenses, and on the right side is a rounded rectangular secondary screen. The rendering of
revealed that the rounded rectangular secondary screen behind this iPhoneUItra will be used to realize almost all functions of AppleWatch, and supports interaction with the product models launched after AppleWatchS6, allowing users to project dial information into the secondary screen, and the secondary screen behind iPhoneUItra supports screen off-screen display, or display a certain picture separately. Of course, this secondary screen can also receive and prompt the received information. We believe that the users of this secondary screen are far more than that, and we will follow up on the reports in the future. In terms of
images, it is revealed that the iPhone UItra is still equipped with three lenses, of which the main camera is still 48 million pixels, but the aperture is upgraded to f/1.6, the ultra-wide angle and telephoto lens are still 12 million pixels, and the camera supports 2x, 3x, 5x and 6x optical zoom . In terms of video, it will support shooting of 4K&120fps Dolby Vision video and 4K&120fps movie mode video. Judging from the leaked information, the upgrade of iPhoneUItra in terms of image will focus on video this time. The rendering of
revealed that the iPhoneUItra will only provide one size version, which is a 6.7-inch version. This screen will achieve a peak brightness of up to 2600nit, and the refresh rate will be increased to 180Hz. The battery capacity has been upgraded from the 4323mAh of the iPhone 14ProMax to 4430mAh, and the larger battery may be to cope with the increase in power consumption caused by the rear secondary screen and higher refresh rate. At the same time, wired charging will be increased to 30W, wireless charging will be increased to 25W, and Qi protocol wireless charging will still be 7.5W. The processor will be equipped with the A17 chip.
iPhoneUItra will be launched as a brand new category. Although the configuration is luxurious, the price is estimated to be not low. Considering that the positioning of iPhoneUItra is higher than that of Pro and ProMax, we have reason to believe that the starting price of iPhoneUItra will not be lower than 9,000 yuan, and may reach 9,999 yuan. Apple has equipped a secondary screen behind the iPhone UItra, which greatly improves the recognition of the product. The recognition is the fundamental driving force that drives everyone to replace the new iPhone. Therefore, even if the iPhone UItra starts at 9,999 yuan, I think the sales volume will not be bad, and it is even higher than the Pro series.
From iPhoneX to iPhone13 Apple has been using the notch screen for four years, and starting from iPhone14, Apple may also use the "Lingdong Island" design for four consecutive years. The release of iPhoneUItra is expected to unveil Apple's design ideas on top high-end mobile phones for the next four years. Let's wait and see.
