Apple finally released a new generation of iPhone 14 models under the spotlight. Sure enough, as rumored, Apple canceled the mini model that has been selling poorly for the past two years and added a larger iPhone 14 Plus. It can be seen that Apple’s purpose is actually very clear, because the market in the past two years has clearly explained that the big screen is more popular, and the small screen will only be praised by people.
So Apple directly brought the cheapest 6.7-inch large-screen model this time.
But this time, Apple’s knife skills have been further improved, and the two standard versions of the iPhone 14 have been directly chopped to death. In the end, the actual sales data may be closer to the bleak end of the mini version.
The biggest reason that may cause this tragedy is castration, and it is castration in all directions.
This time, the iPhone 14 standard version has far less upgrades than the previous generation, and even the chip is reluctant to use the new model, and directly uses the A15. Although it is a full-blooded version, it is obviously lower than the A16.
There is no change in appearance. The 60Hz bangs screen, right-angle frame, and diagonal dual lenses are so simple that it is impossible to believe that this is the flagship mobile phone in 2022.
Why is such a castrated model a flagship?
Because it has also risen in price, the price of the National Bank has exceeded Android’s top high-end flagship, with a price of 27,900 yuan, which is similar to the Sony Xperia 1 IV’s online price of about 29,000 yuan and the Xiaomi 12S Ultra released by Xiaomi in China.
But the difference is that the Xiaomi Mi 12S Ultra entry version also has 256GB of storage, while the iPhone 14 has only 128GB, not to mention other camera functions.
Even if the iPhone 14 is compared with its predecessor, 27,900 yuan is 2,000 yuan more expensive than the previous generation. If it is cost-effective, it is better to consider the iPhone 13 series, or even the iPhone 12 series with more price cuts. After all, with the release of the entire iPhone 14 series,Currently on Apple’s official websitethe iPhone 13 Pro series has been removed from the shelves, but the iPhone 12, iPhone 13, and iPhone 13 mini have brought price cuts, with a maximum drop of 2,000 yuan.
