After Iphone6s's release, the industry once again questioned that the cook-led Apple had lost its ability to innovate, which made it possible for Mr Cook to stand up and say that IPhone7 would have more innovation, well, with just one move, the fruit powder would have more anticipation for iPhone7 next year. But what do users expect from the increasingly Samsung-note iphone? After the big screen, do you get a stylus like Spen?
September 25 The first batch of iphone6s arrived, many users can finally take iphone6s real machine with Samsung new release S6 Edge+ and Note5 two flagship to do a direct contrast, which in the performance of business, is still Samsung Note5 more outstanding, but iphone6s is also good , but there are still some shortcomings compared to the Note5 designed by Samsung to be rooted in business users. IPhone6 Plus and the upgraded version of S have a large screen base, but Note5 Spen's business-office performance is still not available for iphone products.
Before the release of IPhone6, the iphone and Samsung Note series were competitive, but their focus was on different user groups, and Steve Jobs's phrase "no one would buy a big screen phone" would allow Samsung to gain a foothold in the big-screen handset market, where the note series became the first choice for business machines. IPhone6 Plus's appearance, on the one hand let a lot of fruit powder ecstatic, finally wait for Apple's big screen products, on the other hand let jobs fans complain, Apple insisted where to go?
Even though Mr Cook was a successor to Joe Buschin, he had to insist on expanding the big-screen handset market in the face of pressure from the market environment. It turns out that Cook's choice is no problem, but it is not a revolutionary decision, from IPhone6 sales, is still the smaller size of IPhone6 most popular, combined with all the data, IPhone6 and IPhone6 plus sales ratio of about 3:1.
From 3.5 "to 4.0" to 4.7 and 5.5 ", the iphone's screen is getting bigger, but it seems that in the 4.7 and 5.5 consumer markets, users tend to be 4.7 iPhone6. 5.5-inch has gone beyond one-handed control, contrary to the experience Apple has always stressed, is a compromise to the Asian market, especially the Chinese market, because the Asian users are far more than the European and American users prefer a large screen of the visual sense, and has become accustomed to the large screen of the Android machine.
From the product iteration, Apple can only push 4.7-inch products, but in the IPhone6 when the introduction of 5.5-inch products is Apple's innovation at the end of the performance, since the function is no longer revolutionary innovation, then the hardware to meet the user bar. Apple has lifted its scale to 5.5 inches. This has already entered the big-screen market, which has been guarded by the Samsung Note series, which is also seen as Apple's imitation of Samsung's performance, while Apple wants to use the 5.5-inch iPhone6 plus to suppress the mind of Samsung and other competing items.
Since the end of 2011, when Samsung launched its first note-big-screen smartphone, the note series has helped Samsung to secure a high-end business market, with 2011 Note1 (5.3 inches), 2012 Note2 (5.5 inches), 2013 Note3 (5.7 inches), 2014 Note4 (5.7 inches), and this year's Note5 (5.7 inches), the top-of-the-line note products each have a good sales, and even make the note series once became synonymous with the big screen phone. Now Apple launched a plus big screen, it is clear to be with his old enemy temporarily open competition.
However, Apple only imitated the Samsung big screen half of the power, Samsung note series occupy the high-end business market is not just by virtue of the screen large, and its other major feature "Spen" the same work can not be done. For business Office class work scene, the role of Spen can not be ignored, now Note5 Spen in addition to directly edit Word, Excel and PPT and other commonly used files, but also directly in the PDF file to add comments, mark the focus, make text changes, etc. This ability to adapt to the business office of the interaction is still iphone6s lack of.
In the Chinese market, for high-end business people, although the same large-screen products iphone6s plus easy to use, but Samsung Note5 more practical, if business needs, Note5 still have many irreplaceable places, of which Spen is the Samsung Note series Soul function. Prior to the NOTE5 has not yet been formally exposed, there have been media said Note5 will be abandoned Spen, but the fact that Spen is still alive and richer, today's Spen has become the Samsung Note Series important label, it is impossible to remove.
Conversely, it should now be more concerned about whether the iphone's next-generation products will join similar Spen functions, even if Steve Jobs once said "who would need a stylus?" Not only do you have to take it, but it's also possible to lose it, it's a hassle, so we don't need a stylus, but it's not the first time that Steve Jobs was hit by Cook, so adding a stylus seems likely. A weak and innovative iphone will occasionally imitate the other people's home products and features, this is a big screen, the next time it is likely to be a stylus pen; and Apple has started to configure the pen-like pen stylus on the ipad Pro Apple Pencil, since even the big-screen machine that fits business needs has , wouldn't the Apple Pencil feature be on the iphone plus?
With Apple's new multi-model strategy, it is not impossible for the next iphone to launch such a business model, and Apple Pencil, the ipad Pro, is intended to be a business person, and if next year's iphone products will fit into Apple's pencil capabilities, Basically a pirated Samsung note product. But will users like that iphone? Will business people really pay for the iphone business machine?
If there is such a nondescript iphone product or the next year or so, do not be surprised, Cook led Apple, always respect the market choice, verging further imitation of Samsung, do a low-end model to try, and then do a commercial machine try and why not? As long as the market needs, everything is to say.
