IPhone4S evaluates the domestic listing price 1 tens of thousands in detail.
Yes! IPhone4S (today's domestic) listing price is as high as 1000 yuan, which is only the morning price. The author visited the whole Zhongguancun store today, and now the detailed price is announced: the cost of queuing for purchase is about 5000-6000, and 7000 people in China will start bidding. At present, the transaction price is between 9000- 16500 yuan, but profiteers usually delay sales because the number of arrivals is too small (about dozens).
▲ The on-site evaluation is over, so please pay attention to more reports.
Tomorrow will be the first arrival peak of the iPhone4S, and the price is expected to be lowered to around 7000-8000 yuan, but I still suggest that you can wait patiently for a while, and the price range of 5000-6000 yuan is relatively reasonable.
All along, I just want the majority of netizens to treat the listing of iPhone4S calmly. Then we get down to business-iPhone 4S evaluation. If you have any questions about the iPhone4S, you can ask them in the comments at the bottom of the article, or @IT 168 official Weibo, @ Apple Nuclear Forum, @ geek, @ APP 1 165438.
IT 168 Evaluation We are evaluating the unlocked iPhone4S in the UK. Let's start with a few simple unpacking drawings (too many have been sent before, portal: iPhone4S unpacking in detail). It should be noted that: 1 The power supply is three plugs, and the packaging box is thicker than the Japanese version; 2. The bumper (official protective cover) barely works, but the mute button is covered by the protective cover for a quarter, which makes it feel bad to dial it up, while the volume down button completely fails (misplaced); 3. The earphone interface does not match the official protective cover, but the earphone can basically be inserted without affecting the use.
In addition, it should be pointed out that if the manufacturer reserves the position of the volume button up and down, it will not affect the use of the third-party protective cover.
▲ The packaging box is no different from the past, but the thickness is different, so there is no need to entangle.
▲ Basic accessories, English version of three plugs
▲ The British version number is marked in the white box. Pay attention to b/a.
▲ The mute button and volume down button do not match the official bumper shell. Apple should be redone ~
▲ The earphone holes do not match, but they can be used.
Do you know the difference between iPhone4S and iphone4s?
It's really difficult to install B with iPhone4S, because iPhone4S and iPhone4 look so much alike, even almost identical. Therefore, taking out the iPhone4S in public is no different from holding the iPhone4, and you can only fill your psychological satisfaction ~
Of course, if you really want to show off, there is another way-turn on the Siri function and speak English to the iPhone4S. No accent!
It is a bit unfair to say that the appearance of iPhone4S is exactly the same as that of iPhone4. Although it is difficult to distinguish at first glance, you can still find the difference through the following details. We found two iPhones 4, one black and one white, for your reference. Please look at the comparison chart below:
▲ Unlock interface+front contrast, exactly the same (iPhone4S in the middle, you can't see it ~)
▲ Unified upgrade to iOS5 and enter the main menu interface, there is still no difference (iPhone4S is in the middle).
▲ The volume button on the iPhone4S (top), the official culprit of the mismatch between the bumper shell and the iPhone4S, has moved down.
▲ Compared with the right frame, the iPhone4S (top) has a black line (yellow circle) more than the iPhone4.
▲ Compared with the top border, the iPhone4S (top) has one less black line than the iPhone4.
▲ For comparison, iPhone4S (top) and iPhone4 (middle, launched at the beginning of this year) use five-star screws, and iPhone4 (bottom) launched last year uses four-star screws.
▲ Comparing the numbers on the back, the iPhone4S (left) is A 1387, and the iPhone4 (right) is A 1332.
To sum up, there are two best ways to distinguish iPhone4S from iPhone4: 1. Look at the numbers at the back, A 1387 is iphone4s; 2. Look at the number of black lines. There are two black lines on the left and right sides of the iPhone4S, and there is no black line on the top (in fact, Apple redesigned the antenna)
Preliminary analysis on upgrading the function interface of 8 million cameras
Compared with the previous generation, another major hardware parameter of Apple's iPhone4S is mainly improved in the camera part. According to apple's official statement, iPhone4S is adopted? Perhaps the best lens on mobile phones today? . In terms of parameters, it has been upgraded from 5 million pixels of iPhone4 to 8 million pixels of iPhone 4S, and a brand-new back-illuminated CMOS sensor has been adopted, which has effectively improved the brightness by 73%, at the same time, the shutter speed has been improved by 33%, and the photo clarity has been improved by 30%. As for the lens aperture, it has also been upgraded from F/2.8 of iPhone4 to F/2.4 of iPhone 4 S.
▲iPhone4S adoption? Perhaps the best lens on mobile phones today?
Having said so many parameters, everyone must expect the actual quality of photos, so let's take a look at the comparison of photo proofs between iPhone4 and iPhone4S. In the test, the author will set the two machines to be fully automatic, turn off the HDR function, and will not do any post-processing except adjusting the photo size.

Comparative summary of photo proof
In the actual test process, the camera speed and continuous shutter speed of the iPhone4S have been greatly improved, the color of the iPhone4S is fresher, the restoration is more realistic, and the clarity and contrast are improved. Moreover, with the F/2.4 large aperture of the iPhone4S, the background blur effect is more obvious. In short, the camera function and sample quality have reached the highest level in the industry again.
Siri voice control experience teasing quiz
Siri function is the most amazing upgrade of iPhone4S, although it does not support Chinese at present (it now supports Britain, France and Germany. Today, it is officially confirmed that Chinese will be added to 20 12. Good news! But it can be said that without Siri, the iPhone4S will be greatly discounted!
Is Siri really that amazing? In my opinion, the addition of Siri is likely to change the habit of using mobile terminals again. The last change appeared in the touch screen era when the first generation of iPhone was turned on.
It is novel to use Siri for the first time. I've never really expected to communicate on my cell phone. Siri is like your friend, right, right, friend! If you are lovelorn, you won't be alone, o (? _? )O)
▲ long press the Home button to start Siri, just ask questions directly.
There are many ways to open Siri. Just hold down the Home key (as shown above).
Compared with the traditional language control function, Siri is more intelligent and humanized. The author tried to ask a few spoof questions, and Siri's answer was witty and humorous, such as:
Q: Do you know Android?
A: I will Google you (automatically pop up the browser).
▲ If you answer: I only know that iOS is funny ~ haha
-
Q: I love you.
Impossible/OK/Let's get to work ... (First rejection! ! But the answer is different every time, haha)
▲ The first answer is impossible, the second answer is yes, and the third time it stops. Siri is too much.
-
Q: What do you think of the iPhone5?
A: You can log on to Apple official website to inquire (follow Apple's tradition? Rigorous? Style)
▲ It's hard to get secrets from Siri.
Under normal circumstances, Siri faces these? Nonsense? The answers to the questions are all reasonable, which is really a bit unexpected (I thought Siri would directly answer: I'm sorry, I don't know), so what would Siri do if she answered some common and reasonable questions in life?
Siri Voice Control Experience (2) Fuzzy Query+Traffic
Siri to most？ Seriously? Can answer questions quickly and accurately, especially on some concise questions that conform to human expression habits and have simple grammatical structure. Siri shows great intelligence, such as:
Q: I'm hungry (I don't even want to eat similar questions ~)
I don't know where you are, but I can help you find ... (Siri's location in China hasn't been done yet, otherwise it will be very convenient).
▲ Ambiguous and colloquial questions can be recognized by Siri.
-
Q: What's the weather like today?
Answer: Call the weather function interface directly (it is intuitive and convenient to look at the picture).
Asking about the weather: illustrated and easy to understand.
-
Q: What time is it?
Answer: Call the time function interface directly (it is intuitive and convenient to look at the picture).
▲ Inquiry time: illustrated and easy to understand.
-
Q: Send text messages to XXX.
Answer: Send your words directly (driving without manual input).
▲ Voice messages are really convenient for users who often drive or are too lazy to type.
Siri supports both WiFi and 3G networks. The former is free, needless to say, while the latter's billing is believed to be of great concern to many people. According to the author's test, a voice will cost 62KB. If calculated according to 10 words per day (excluding the traffic consumed by continuing to visit the browser), the traffic consumed in one month will reach 18.8MB, which is completely acceptable.
Summary:
1.Siri is really smart and a very convenient life assistant.
2. It's 2. Functional Siri? Feelings? Let the cold machine be your friend.
3. Although it doesn't support Chinese, Siri's recognition rate of China people speaking English is acceptable (this example is not very good, as long as the pronunciation of words is standard, it's basically no problem to speak slowly).
4.Siri, not only a voice assistant, may change our habit of using mobile terminals.
5.Siri is not a universal tool, and domestic service promotion has not yet begun, so it is best to treat it rationally.
Improved design of two sets of antenna combinations for eliminating signal gate
Remember the signal that made a lot of noise when the iPhone4 was released last year? When I got the iPhone4S, I couldn't wait to see the newly designed two sets of antennas. Before the iPhone4 was equipped with two sets of antennas, the left antenna was used for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, and the right antenna was used for receiving cell phone signals. The newly designed two sets of antennas of iPhone4S are used for receiving and transmitting respectively, and the two sets of antennas can be switched intelligently. There is no difference in appearance except for the first time.
▲ Comparison of newly designed antennas on the right side of the fuselage
▲ Comparison of newly designed antennas on the left side of fuselage
Apple redesigned the antenna of the iPhone4S, claiming to improve the signal strength. Due to the limited time environment, we didn't measure the signal for the time being, but entered *300 1# 12345#* in the dial-up interface to enter the engineering mode, and took screenshots of the signals of iPhone4S and iPhone4. From this result, iPhone4S is better than iPhone4.
▲ The higher the number in the upper left corner, the stronger the signal strength-iphone 4s (left), iPhone 4 (right).
Can iPhone4S support dual-mode China Telecom users to insert cards directly?
As we all know, the last generation of iPhone 4 introduced two models with different network standards, one is WCDMA and the other is CDMA. However, the new iPhone 4S supports both WCDMA and CDMA, and it is a dual-mode mobile phone. As soon as this news came out, many domestic players were a little confused. We buy iPhone4S in China, can we use the SIM card of China Telecom?
▲ Apple iPhone4S supports dual mode.
In fact, iPhone4S does support WCDMA and CDMA, two 3G network standards. However, CDMA in foreign countries uses burning numbers, and only China Telecom in China has a separate machine card (that is, it needs to insert a SIM card). Therefore, although the iPhone4S has a SIM card slot, it can be fully used in GSM/WCDMA. Foreign CDMA users can use it by burning the number, while domestic China telecom users still only use it by burning the number.
▲ Domestic telecom users can't use it, they can only burn the number.
Cloud service iCloud
ICloud is a cloud service re-launched by Apple, which integrates all the important data of users and stores them on the network, so that users don't have to rely on computers for data backup and synchronization, and everything can be done with iCloud. For example, you can use the purchased function to download previously purchased songs, and you can download them to every device that supports iCloud, so you don't have to sync with iTunes.
▲iCloud cloud service supports a variety of iOS devices.
However, although iCloud is very powerful in function, it will be very painful for some countries with poor network bandwidth to use this function because it is highly dependent on the network. And you have to use more than two iOS devices to experience the powerful functions of iCloud, and Apple only provides users with 5GB cloud hosting, so if you need more space, you can only spend money to buy more capacity.
▲ Each user can purchase more storage space with 5GB capacity.
Free SMS iMessage
Apple's FaceTime feature makes video calling via WIFI so interesting and free, especially for people living apart. FaceTime function is easy to use, convenient and fast. Now iOS 5 brings us a more detailed application: free SMS iMessage. Only two devices are required to be iOS systems, which can be used through WIFI or 3G networks. A tool similar to Blackberry BBM was born, and iMessage made communication between iOS users easier.
▲ No setting is required. As long as both devices are iOS, you can use transferable pictures and text.
▲ The left and right sides are the interface supporting iMessage function and the interface not supporting it.
Dual-core speed test: Super iPhone4 game screen dropped.
IPhone4S is equipped with a new A5 1GHz dual-core processor, and brings more powerful processing speed and multimedia expressive force through integrated GPU mode. Its hardware specifications are second to none today. So, can it cope with popular game masterpieces? Compared with iPhone4, what is the difference from software startup speed to game fluency? Let's take a look at the following two videos: From the following three videos, it is not difficult to find that the iPhone4S is superior to the iPhone4 in both startup speed and fluency with its dual-core processor.
Comparison between the map positioning function of iPhone4S/iPhone4 and the camera shutter speed;
Comparison of the starting speed of the game "Wild Racing 6 Fires Chasing the Murder":
The smooth experience of the game "Wild Racing 6- Fire Chasing";
"Wild Racing 6- Fire Chasing" has high-quality picture effects, sound effects and full 3D scene shocking and gorgeous, and the performance of racing modeling is also very satisfactory. During the game, the picture is smooth, the music is dynamic and powerful, the picture is delicate and expressive, so it is definitely a good choice as a test game. So will iPhone4 and iPhone4S be different in game screen fineness?
▲iPhone4S "Wild Racing 6- Fire Chasing" game interface screenshot
▲iPhone4 "Wild Racing 6- Fire Chasing" game interface screenshot
By comparing the following screenshots, we get the opposite result. The game screen fineness of iPhone4 is better than that of iPhone 4S ~ The reason may be that although the graphics processing ability of iPhone4S GPU has increased by 7 times, the game "Wild Racing 6- Fire Chasing" itself is optimized based on A4 processor, and A5 dual-core processor cannot optimize its performance. Therefore, if you want to show the performance of the iPhone4S game perfectly, it may take a month or two before Apple launches a game optimized for the A5 processor, and then it may be fairer to take screenshots and compare the results.
Full text summary: iPhone4S experience summary
IPhone4S is here. After waiting for so long, many people are anxious. Emotionally, the author does have a strong impulse to buy, but the more so, the more rational it should be. Next, the author briefly summarizes the experience from purchase to use, for reference only.
▲iPhone For Steve, do you feel the charm of the iPhone4S?
1. About the price-10,000 yuan listed, extremely sought after, but only this weekend. On June 10 and 16, three types of lockless machines, the Canadian version, the British version and the Australian version, will enter the China market in large quantities, and the estimated price will drop to 6,000-8,000 yuan. If there is no hurry, it is strongly recommended to wait for a while.
2. About taking pictures-the speed of taking pictures and the speed of continuous shutter are greatly improved, the colors are fresher, the restoration is more realistic, the background blur effect is more obvious, and the sharpness and contrast are improved. In short, the camera function did not disappoint the players.
3. About Siri-fun and interesting, it will never become a chicken rib function in daily life! But for domestic users, the frequency of using Siri may not be very high, especially in the period when the language and network are still not perfect, so don't expect too much from Siri.
4. About speed-According to the feedback from colleagues around me, the overall running speed of iPhone4S is 20% faster than that of iPhone4, especially the loading speed and continuous shutter speed of large games. A5 dual-core processor +iOS5 is really awesome! However, for those users who have low performance requirements, the current iPhone4 is still acceptable. After all, there are few exclusive applications for iPhone4S.
The testing of the iPhone4S is just the beginning. Please continue to pay attention to IT 168 mobile phone channel for subsequent reports.
