Last month, the long-awaited "spring" press conference finally came.
The newly released iPad Pro, the most upgraded generation of iPads since 2018.
What is the double-layer series OLED, the far leading M4 chip, the logo copper sheet heat dissipation......
And so on.
All of them were stuffed in.
You say strong, but it's strong.
But compared to these invisible, intangible, intrinsic upgrades.
On the contrary, the thickness of the iPad Pro this time is indeed more explosive.
Specifically, the new 13-inch iPad Pro is only 5.1mm thick and weighs only 579g.
Flip the 6.4mm thick, 682g old iPad Pro directly.
And because of the weight loss effect, it is really better.
Even the iPad Air, which has always been thin and light, is here, and it can be easily flipped and played.
Well, now the iPad Air has become the least airy.
It may be that even if the iPad OS is still the same as the familiar one*.
Engaging in a wave of thin and light fuselage can still stimulate many old users to pay for it.
Cook, who has been dreaming of coiling beads, is preparing to continue the lightweight play of the iPad Pro next year and secretly develop a special version of the iPhone 17.
And there is also a new nomenclature of the ship.
iPhone 17 Slim
Eh, don't worry.
This time it is likely not the mini series that we have in mind to return.
As one of the most savvy businessmen in the mech.
Let the much-acclaimed mini series return, the probability of such a thankless thing happening is still too low.
Well, according to the latest revelations.
iPhone 17 系列要把销量常年垫底的 Plus 系列砍掉,用屏幕小一丢丢的 iPhone 17 Slim 替代。
The screen size is around 6.6 inches, which is somewhere between the Pro and Pro Max.
The point is the thickness.
But how light and thin it is.
We don't know this yet, but it's said to be "much thinner than the current iPhone design".
Perhaps, it can break the record of the thinnest iPhone iPhone at 6.9mm that year?
This wave reminds me of the time when the machine circle had not yet started to play the arms race.
On the contrary, a lot of machines have been rolled out, which are famous for being "ultra-thin".
seems to have disappeared in front of our eyes, Lu Weibing's old club Jinli.
In 2014, such a mobile phone was made, Gionee ELIFE S5.1.
With a body thickness of only 5.15mm, it is the world's "thinnest smartphone".
In the era when 7mm+ thickness machines were all over the place, it was indeed a sight to behold.
And this machine also got the Guinness World Records certification that year, and the gold content is full.
But the bad news...
It didn't take long to get this title, and the two big blue and green factories with thick eyebrows and big eyes came out to make trouble.
JOCK, GIONEE ELIFE S5.1 WAS RELEASED FOR THE SECOND MONTH.
The green factory launched the OPPO R5 with a thickness of only 4.85 mm.
kicked Gionee out of the top of the smartphone thickness list.
Within two months, Alan released the vivo X5Max, which was directly rolled up to the terrifying 4.75mm.
What's the concept?
Now the image flagship is cut in half to the thickness.
As the saying goes, one step ahead will win, and two steps ahead will send.
However, as soon as the blue factory card came out, it was not sent by himself.
It's the whole track.
The specific performance is as follows:
After reading the other factories, it said that you played this card a little better, and the roll did not move, and the picker did not do it.
So, it's still the thinnest smartphone to date.
The iPhone 6 released in 2014 by the fruit next door is not as good as the 4mm monsters made in China.
But at 6.9mm, it's enough to look at any iPhone that comes in the future.
It weighs 129 grams and is paired with a sleek one-piece aluminum alloy body.
It really deserves to be called a sentence -
However, since the goose has reached the era of full screen, with the screen, battery, and camera module getting bigger and bigger.
Especially after the iPhone 12 played with the Wave Renaissance with a right-angled bezel......
iPhones, especially those with extra-large cups.
It has nothing to do with the good feel.
So, this time when I saw that the fruit was ready to wash its hands and return to the thin and light body that it had pursued.
Brother Ji naturally raised his hands and feet to support him.
If you want a large screen display, and you don't want your little thumb to be persecuted, it's up to you to see how next year's iPhone 17 Sill plays.
But ah, support is support, here Brother Ji still has to say a but.
Because now the iPhone...
Battery life and heat dissipation, right, it's impossible not to worry.
Every year, they are blowing about how much the performance of the chip has improved, how strong the game performance is, and even blatantly hanging high-load games on the official website to advertise.
What is subverted again, full of immersion, and surpasses the previous graphics performance.
But it actually works.
I can only say that I can lie to myself, don't lie to my brother.
Even with the blessing of MetalFX.
Even if you natively support the 120Hz frame rate cap.
There is no heat dissipation, it should be hot or hot, it should not be stable at 60 frames or it should not be stable.
Plus.
The endurance myth of the fruit is basically supported by the enlarged and thickened ProMax version.
Now it will be made into an ultra-thin version......
In a trance.
Everyone seems to remember the fear of charging three times a day, bringing a power bank when you go out, and even turning on the subway parkour to weigh the fear again and again.
In addition to poor heat dissipation and fast power consumption.
The charging speed of the fruit has also been back and forth with the domestic thousand-yuan machine and the hundred-yuan machine.
Starting at 9999 yuan, the 8.2mm thick ProMax can't solve the heat dissipation, battery life, and charging problems that it doesn't want to solve.
On the Slim model, the probability of a blind guess is as high as 98.114%.
Oh yes.
According to the consistent urine properties of the fruit, the ProMotion Adaptive High Brush has always been the exclusive Moment of the Pro model.
What about this Slim ......
I know everything.
Having said all that, do you say that Cook and his old man don't know so many problems.
Definitely know.
But the sales of the iPhone in the past two years, especially this year, in China.
There are indeed hundreds of millions of bleak points.
It is so bleak that the official needs to make the biggest price reduction in the history of 618 in order to increase sales.
Not to mention the first user of the backstab, it is also a fatal blow to the high-end image of the fruit.
In the final analysis, the advantages of software and hardware are getting smaller and smaller than those of domestic flagships, and Guozi needs to find some new selling points to find another way.
The light and thin feel is one of them.
In fact, this year's iPhone 15 series is already a bit untidy.
Except for the small bottom periscope telephoto that often can't be adjusted.
The biggest selling point is actually the lighter titanium and the less cutting bezel.
According to this trend, the next selling point will be enlarged, and a separate Slim version will be proposed.
The odds are really high.
But at the point in time of 2025, launch a thin version with limited performance, charging, battery life, or 60Hz to boost sales...
Brother Ji feels.
It's better to give the standard version a high brush, and the sales are designated rattling.
The picture comes from the Internet
