Apple is set to be significantly slimming its packaging for its upcoming
iPhone line. The analyst previously said that Apple will no longer include
wired earbuds with the iPhone 12, and today reports that he also expects the
power adapter to now be sold separately too.
蘋果不會再提供耳機和充電器給iPhone 12,充電器要另外買
Kuo says that Apple wants to keep selling the iPhone 12 at a similar price to
the iPhone 11 and removing in-box accessories will offset the cost of the 5G
networking components. This will presumably reduce the size of the iPhone
packaging considerably, helping lower Apple’s freight costs and be better
for the environment.
蘋果希望iPhone 12的售價跟11一樣,移除盒子內的設備可以填補5G元件的成本
iPhone的盒子更小,可以減少蘋果的運送成本,並且更加的保護環境
Kuo says that the previously-pictured 20 W power adapter is legitimate but
will not come with the iPhone 12. Instead, it will be sold separately as an
optional purchase. The analyst believes Apple is discontinuing both the
current 5W and 18 W chargers in favor of the new 20 W model.
20瓦的充電器是真的,但它不會在iPhone 12的盒子裡,相反的,它會變成選配。
而5瓦和18瓦的充電器從此會走入歷史
For Apple’s upcoming iPad line, consisting of a new 10.8-inch iPad later
this year and 8.5-inch iPad mini in first half of 2021, Kuo thinks Apple will
continue to bundle the power adapter.
蘋果接下來的iPad產品線,包含年底的10.8 吋iPad Air,以及明年初8.5初的iPad mini
蘋果會繼續提供充電器(但應該就20瓦的了)
心得:
少了配件,理論上iPhone的售價可以少$50
AirPods 的銷量加100%
另外盒子的厚度
假如還是有線的話,厚度可以變成三分之一
假如連線都不給的話,厚度可以變成6分之一
記得之前Fedex 75萬美元包機可以運送50萬隻iPhone
還包含線的話,可以送150萬隻iPhone,每隻iPhone 0.5美元
不包線的話,可以送300萬隻iPhone,每隻iPhone 0.25美元
成本真的低不少
變成選配後
蘋果充電器也不用給這麼摳了
直接賣20瓦就好了
另外由於之前蘋果註冊了9款新iPhone
最近iPhone 12又傳出4G版便宜了$100
所以2*4+1=9剛剛好
所以年底的產品線可能變成這樣:
手機 售價
iPhone SE $349 (配件拿掉了)
iPhone SE plus $449
iPhone 12 4G $549
iphone 12 5G $649
iPhone 12 max 4G $649
iPhone 12 max 5G $749
iPhone 12 pro 4G $899
iPhone 12 pro 5G $999
iPhone 12 pro max 4G $999
iPhone 12 pro max 5G $1099
感覺這樣價格帶好看多了
其實我以前買amazon 的kindle有附microusb 充電器
後來就不附了
歐盟統一充電線的確也是要減少充電器的使用
歐盟唯一有意見的應該是蘋果的lightening 線
