On July 11, KGI Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who had repeatedly predicted new Apple products, said in a research note recently that iWatch, a much-anticipated smart watch product by Apple, Will enter mass production in November this year, compared with the expected delay this time.
Mark Gurman, an analyst at 9to5Mac, an Apple news site, recently received the latest analysis from Guo Mingchi. Guo Mingchi pointed out in his report that iWatch was the earliest to predict new challenges in software and hardware for Apple In October this year, the news is not accurate.
"We postponed the expected production volume of iWatch from late September to late November, and we also cut the estimated sales volume of iWatch by 40% to about 3 million units in 2014." Guo Mingchi wrote.
In fact, Reuters also reported last month that Apple's iWatch will use a 2.5-inch screen and will start mass production as early as this month and launch it in October.
At the same time, Guo Mingchi also believes that iWatch will be flexible AMOLED display with sapphire glass, built-in new system-on-a-chip components and have a high waterproof standard. Among them, the waterproof performance has made it very clear that the company will sport, health class features built into this product.
If nothing unexpected happens, Apple will soon join the smartwatches that are currently dominated by companies including Samsung, LG and Sony. Most of the smartwatts launched by these vendors are equipped with motion tracking, notification push and application access Regular service. However, we believe Apple iWatch will still get more consumers with its seamless integration with iOS 8 Healthbook applications. (Tom)
