The concept design of Apple iwatch the Phoenix Science and technology news Beijing time August 30, according to the British Guardian reported that Taiwan analysts and local media reported that Apple has selected two Taiwanese suppliers for its custom iwatch, the product is expected to be listed next year, And the first year its shipments will be locked in 63 million parts. Hong Kong's Apple Daily reported that the Taiwanese electronics maker Quanta Computer and British industry have received orders from Apple's smart watch iwatch, and the two will be divided into 38 million iwatch orders in the proportion of 60:40. But Wanli Wang, an analyst at Taipei's CIMB Nomura, said the shipments could break 63 million in the first year of iwatch's release. Still, Apple hasn't officially shown it is developing iwatch. But earlier this year, there were media reports that an Apple team was developing a "wearable computing device", and there was widespread speculation that Apple might be developing iwatch smart watches. Tim Cook, Apple's CEO, said the wearable computing device was a "very interesting" area. Smart watches can be connected to smartphones, and users can view their phone updates directly through their watches. In the United States, Pebble Marvell has sold 85,000 Pebble smart watches, priced at $150. Previously, it had raised more than tens of millions of dollars. This July, Apple registered a "iwatch" trademark in Japan, and recently Apple hired a former Nike executive but did not disclose its specific position. Apple's iwatch smart watch may be fully marketed in early 2014, but the wearable device has lagged behind rival Samsung's products. Samsung plans to launch its own gear smart watch on September 4 this year at the IFA electronic show in Berlin. Google said it was also expected to launch Google glasses next year. This July, Google tested its "explorer" version of Google glasses. The price and function of Apple iwatch has become a common concern. Angela McIntyre, a Gartner analyst at the Market Research Institute, Angela Mackin that iwatch's price could be between 149 and 199 dollars. "This price range of the product makes it the best holiday gift for husbands and wives," MacIntyre said. Apple products are usually priced slightly above the competition, and for those who buy Apple products at a high price, they certainly expect better quality and design. "If iwatch can ship more than 63 million in the first year after it is released, it means the product will sell faster than the iphone, ipad or ipod, but that seems unlikely," McCormack added. But if iwatch's design is the road, itMay become the best-selling smart watch. Apple declined to comment on the report. (Compile/Joshui)
