Everything Apple Announced: iPhone Duo, iPhone 18 Pro, Apple Watch, AirPods 5
苹果发布会全汇总:iPhone Duo、iPhone 18 Pro、Apple Watch、AirPods 5
It’s a brand-new era for Apple. The company is turning over leadership for the first time in 15 years, with former CEO Tim Cook handing off the reins last week to the new CEO, former Apple VP of hardware John Ternus. At the first Apple product soiree hosted by Ternus, the company made an even bigger change: it announced its first ever folding device, the iPhone Duo. 这是苹果的一个全新时代。该公司 15 年来首次更换领导层,前任首席执行官蒂姆·库克(Tim Cook)上周将帅印交给了新任首席执行官、前苹果硬件副总裁约翰·特努斯(John Ternus)。在特努斯主持的首场苹果产品发布会上,公司带来了一个更大的变革:发布了其史上首款折叠设备——iPhone Duo。
The company also announced its new line of iPhone 18 Pro phones, some updates to its Apple Watch line, new AirPods, and new software capabilities powered by Siri AI. 该公司还发布了全新的 iPhone 18 Pro 系列手机、Apple Watch 系列的更新、新款 AirPods,以及由 Siri AI 驱动的全新软件功能。
As expected, there were no base-model iPhone 18 announcements; those are likely coming early next year. There was also no mention of Vision Pro, iPads, or Macs. Apple touted new desktop Macs in August. Here’s everything Apple showed off today. 不出所料,此次发布会没有宣布基础款 iPhone 18;这些机型可能会在明年年初推出。此外,发布会未提及 Vision Pro、iPad 或 Mac。苹果已于 8 月份推介了新款台式机 Mac。以下是苹果今天展示的所有内容。
Apple iPhone Duo
苹果 iPhone Duo
Apple’s first ever folding device is the Duo, a “passport sized” foldable iPhone. It starts at $1,999 for a model with 256 GB of storage. 苹果史上首款折叠设备是 Duo,这是一款“护照大小”的折叠屏 iPhone。256GB 存储容量的起售价为 1,999 美元。
It’s a product category that Apple has been working toward for a decade. Now, it hopes to do that very Apple thing where it may not be the first company to the new tech party, but it definitely aims to be the snazziest. 这是苹果深耕十年的产品类别。如今,苹果希望延续其一贯的风格:虽然可能不是第一家进入该技术领域的公司,但绝对致力于打造最精致的产品。
The Duo is a landscape style foldable, meaning it has a vertical magnetic hinge that lets you open the device like a book. Closed, it has a 5.3-inch screen on the outside. Open it up, and the landscape display is 7.7 inches. The Duo is also heavy, weighing in at 254 grams, which might be a little too hefty for some users. Duo 采用横向折叠设计,配有垂直磁性铰链,可以像书本一样打开。闭合时,外屏为 5.3 英寸;展开后,横向显示屏为 7.7 英寸。Duo 的重量也达到了 254 克,对于某些用户来说可能略显沉重。
The Duo is made with a titanium frame and what Apple calls a “custom polymer” screen for increased durability. It runs on Apple’s proprietary A20 Pro chip (the same chip in the new Pro-model iPhones 18) and the company’s custom C2 modem. The horizontal format also means it’s capable of running iPad-like apps, albeit ones that can adjust on the fly when folding the screen or setting the phone up at an angle. The Duo will also be able to work with the Apple Pencil Pro stylus. Duo 采用钛金属边框,并配备了苹果所谓的“定制聚合物”屏幕,以提高耐用性。它搭载苹果自研的 A20 Pro 芯片(与新款 iPhone 18 Pro 机型相同)以及公司定制的 C2 调制解调器。横向格式意味着它能够运行类似 iPad 的应用程序,并且在折叠屏幕或以特定角度放置手机时,这些应用可以实时调整。Duo 还将支持 Apple Pencil Pro 手写笔。
On the back of the Duo are two 48-megapixel cameras, one standard, one for ultrawide shots. There are two 12-megapixel selfie cameras, one on the main screen and one on the inside when the screen is opened. The cameras can also capture 4K video. Duo 背面配备了两颗 4800 万像素摄像头,一颗为标准镜头,另一颗为超广角镜头。此外还有两颗 1200 万像素的自拍镜头,一颗位于主屏幕上,另一颗在屏幕展开后的内侧。这些摄像头均支持 4K 视频拍摄。
Untypical of Apple, the Duo does not have Face ID. Instead, it uses a TouchID sensor in the power button. This is likely due to Apple’s desire to minimize the device’s bulk and allow for more components inside the device. 不同于苹果以往的风格,Duo 没有配备 Face ID。取而代之的是电源键上的 TouchID 指纹传感器。这很可能是因为苹果希望尽量减小设备体积,并为内部容纳更多组件腾出空间。
Like, for example, the massive battery. Apple says the iPhone Duo gets 31 hours of battery life, and up to 44 hours just using the smaller front screen. Storage options start at 256 GB for the base model, with options up to 2 terabytes of space. That top configuration puts the Duo at $3,199. 例如,为了容纳巨大的电池。苹果表示,iPhone Duo 的续航时间可达 31 小时,仅使用较小的前置屏幕时续航可达 44 小时。存储容量起步为 256GB,最高可选 2TB。顶配版 Duo 的售价为 3,199 美元。
Expensive, yes, and very in line with Apple’s upward adjustment to its prices due to the memory shortage. But Apple is also keen on enticing users to rent the most premium devices with Apple Upgrade, the leasing program the company introduced in July. 确实昂贵,这也非常符合苹果因内存短缺而上调价格的策略。但苹果也热衷于通过 7 月份推出的租赁计划“Apple Upgrade”来吸引用户租用这些高端设备。
iPhone 18 Pro
iPhone 18 Pro
As predictions suspected, Apple is not releasing its base model iPhone this year. Instead, the company focused on highlighting its new iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. 正如预测所料,苹果今年没有发布基础款 iPhone。相反,公司重点推介了新款 iPhone 18 Pro 和 iPhone 18 Pro Max。
These look almost identical to the iPhone 17 Pro models, albeit slightly smaller. The iPhone 18 Pro is 6.3 inches and the iPhone 18 Pro Max is 6.9 inches. They come in black, silver, glacier, and burgundy color options. 它们看起来与 iPhone 17 Pro 机型几乎一模一样,只是尺寸略小。iPhone 18 Pro 为 6.3 英寸,iPhone 18 Pro Max 为 6.9 英寸。提供黑色、银色、冰川色和勃艮第红四种颜色选择。
They come with Apple’s new A20 Pro chips, which have been repackaged into a silicone casing that can connect directly to the new redesigned vapor chamber, a design flourish that aids in keeping the components from overheating and helps the phone last longer. Wireless charging is even faster, able to juice the phone up to 50 percent battery life in 15 minutes. 它们搭载了苹果新款 A20 Pro 芯片,该芯片被重新封装在硅胶外壳中,可直接连接到重新设计的均热板。这种设计巧思有助于防止组件过热,并延长手机的使用寿命。无线充电速度更快,15 分钟即可将电量充至 50%。
The iPhone 18 Pro battery is capable of up to 36 hours of video playback per charge. The 18 Pro Max gets around 45 hours of video playback. The 18 Pro phones are also getting juiced up with a new and improved Siri AI. There is an all new Siri AI app on the iPhone. Siri AI is rolling out as a beta in English now, and will be available in French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and Spanish in October. iPhone 18 Pro 的电池单次充电可支持长达 36 小时的视频播放。18 Pro Max 的视频播放时间约为 45 小时。18 Pro 系列手机还通过全新改进的 Siri AI 得到了增强。iPhone 上新增了一个 Siri AI 应用程序。Siri AI 目前以英语测试版形式推出,并将于 10 月份支持法语、日语、韩语、葡萄牙语和西班牙语。
Adjustable Aperture
可调光圈
The iPhone 18 models also get a number of big improvements to their cameras. The biggest: a variable aperture on the iPhone 18 Pro’s 48-megapixel main camera. Users can dial in their preferred aperture, which adjusts mechanically in the lens. This opens up new possibilities for shooting in different light environments, as well as adjusting the depth of field for adding real—not digital—bokeh effects to photos. iPhone 18 系列的摄像头也进行了多项重大改进。最显著的一点是:iPhone 18 Pro 的 4800 万像素主摄像头配备了可变光圈。用户可以调节自己偏好的光圈,镜头会进行机械调整。这为在不同光照环境下拍摄提供了新的可能性,并能调整景深,从而为照片添加真实的(而非数字模拟的)焦外成像效果。
Apple is also touting improved photography and video capture controls, called Pro Controls, that let you change settings like white balance, aperture, and shutter speed. So if you’re a camera nerd, you have new software and hardware tools to play with. 苹果还推介了改进后的摄影和视频拍摄控制功能,称为“Pro Controls”,允许用户更改白平衡、光圈和快门速度等设置。因此,如果你是摄影发烧友,将会有新的软硬件工具可供把玩。
Apple is also introducing Apple Reference Image, a watermarking tech that maintains an image the way it was originally shot. Apple refers to it as something close to “a digital photo negative” that you can reference if you need to prove a photo’s provenance. 苹果还引入了 Apple Reference Image,这是一种水印技术,可以保持图像拍摄时的原始状态。苹果将其称为类似于“数字照片底片”的东西,如果你需要证明照片的来源,可以参考它。
The iPhone 18 Pro is $1,199, and the iPhone 18 Pro Max is $1,299. You can preorder the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max this Saturday, September 12. Apple says they’ll officially start selling September 18. iPhone 18 Pro 售价 1,199 美元,iPhone 18 Pro Max 售价 1,299 美元。你可以在本周六(9 月 12 日)预购 iPhone 18 Pro 和 Pro Max。苹果表示,它们将于 9 月 18 日正式开售。
