前不久,有网友贴出一张林志颖专注看手机的图片,眼尖的网民发现他手里拿着的这款手机采用双镜头设计,背部还有苹果logo,显然是即将发布的iPhone7Plus。


果粉们是不是非常羡慕嫉妒恨啊。


关于iPhone7的各种流言在网上曾不不穷,各位吃瓜群众们也是看的云里雾里不明所以,今天小编就给大家带来最权威的预测,各个角度各个方面提前了解还未面世的iPhone7。


(人们想象中的iPhone7)


Latest news

  最新消息


The home button has become one of Apple's most iconic design features. And while some rumours say Apple will ditch the home button (see below) others suggest it's getting a revamp.

Home键是苹果系列最具标志性的设计特色。关于Home键,市面上普遍有两种传言,一说Home键会被彻底取消掉,另一说Home键不会被取消但是会有相应的更新改进。


According to Bloomberg Technology, the new iPhones will use pressure-sensitive technology from Macbook computers for the home button.

按照Bloomberg技术的说法,新iphone的Home键会沿用Macbook的设计,即使用压敏技术代替按键技术。


"Current home buttons are switches that physically press into the phone, but the new models will have a pressure-sensitive button that provides feedback to the user via a vibrating haptic sensation rather than a true physical click," explains the site.

有网站解释称:“现在的按键是一个名副其实的按键,按一下就会稍微压入手机,但是新的机子会运用压敏技术来对其进行相应的调整,使用Home键的时候,会有稍微的机子震动感传到用户的指尖处来提醒用户该键已被激活,而非像以前一样的单击触感。”


"This mechanism is similar to that of the trackpads on the latest MacBook line."

“其实这个技术原理跟最新一版的Macbook所应用的技术比较相似。”


We find it hard to believe that Apple would get rid of the home button. The feature actually pre-dates the iPhone as it was first used on the iPod music players.

我们很难去相信说苹果公司会完全弃用Home键这一设计。Home键其实早在iphone之前就已经有所运用,最早我们能见到的Home键其实是在ipod音乐播放器上。


Release date

  上市时间


Taking Apple's release date history into account, it's likely we'll see the iPhone 7 officially revealed in September 2016.

按照以往苹果公司推新上市的尿性来看, 我们基本上能确认ipone7会在2016年九月正式上市。


Both the iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6 were revealed in September and Apple has no reason to change its strategy.

之前的6和6s都是在九月份推上来的,苹果公司没啥理由去改变自己的战略。


Notorious leaker Evan Blass claims to have pinned down the release date to Friday September 16 - although he has cited no source for the information.

“大名鼎鼎”的边缘人Evan Blass声称上市时间会是9.16号,周五--不过他自己也找不出什么可靠消息去让这个消息站住脚。



(在这里说清楚一下,我说的时间是零售时间,不是发布会的时间。再给你们说详细一点,具体发售时间会在9.16日,星期五。)


If he is right, the launch event would either take place at the start of the week commencing September 5, or the week commencing September 12.

如果他说的是事实,那么发布会不是在9.5号周一,就是在9.12号周一。


(7比6更纤细)


One fan theory, posted on TechRadar, points to Apple’s next device will being unveiled on September 6.

TechRadar上也有一个说法,称苹果的下一款机子会在9.6号开售


The theory comes from the fact that Apple is currently offering a “back to school” promotion on its online store which offers free Beats Wireless headphones when buying a Mac, iPad or iPhone.

这说法来源是这样的,现在苹果官网上有一个“返校季”活动,活动内容为只要买任意的Mac, iPad or iPhone产品,他们都会赠送一份无线耳机。


The deal, which has been running since June, ends on September 5, suggesting that Apple has something big planned for the following day.

该活动开始日期为6月,截至日期为9.5。那我们很有理由去相信,9.5号之后肯定会有什么大事发生。


Price

  价格


It's unlikely that Apple's main iPhone 7 will be any easier on the wallet than past variants.

苹果新推出的7系列应该不会比以往的手机系列便宜多少,钱包还是会稍微吃紧吧!


But its launch could see Apple finally change the thing that annoys people most about the iPhone.

但是7系列的上市也说明,苹果公司最终还是对会引起人们不满的某些部分进行了改进。


Rumours suggest that Apple is planning to ditch its pitifully small 16GB storage option in favour of a more generous 32GB base model.

有谣言称,苹果的最小存储容量将从16GB改为32GB。


The current iPhone 6s and 6s Plus lineup offers customers a choice of 16GB, 64GB, or 128GB storage options.

现在的6和6s有以下几种容量大小可供选择:16GB,64GB,132GB


However, supply chain investigations by Kevin Wang, director of market research at respected analyst firm IHS Technology, suggest the iPhone 7 base model will come with 32GB of storage.

然后,据IHS技术公司市场调研和分析部主任Kevin Wang的调查显示,现在的7系列的存储容量为32GB.


If true, we could expect other models with larger storage - 64GB and 128GB most likely - to stick with the £619 and £699 prices.

如果是真的话,那我们就可以期待一下,容量和价格方面的变化啦:64GB 和 128GB 的机子很有可能分别标价是 £619和£699。


Name

  系列名称


While most people expect Apple's next iPhone to be called the iPhone 7, some leaks suggest that Apple may opt for the name "iPhone 6SE" instead.

大多数人都认为下一代苹果手机会是iphone7,但是也有少数人说新推出的不是7是6SE。


The rumour comes from German tech news site Apfelpage , which spoke to Chinese supply chain sources who claim to have seen finished packaging and labels with the new name.

该谣言是从一家名叫Apfelpage的德国信息科技技术中心与中国苹果材料供应链交谈过程中传出的,该中心说到,他们已经看到了新的包装盒子,上面写的就是新一代机子的名字。


The name iPhone 6SE would make sense, given that most of the rumours point to Apple's next iPhone being an iterative update rather than a major design overhaul.

其实有人说新一代机子群名6SE也不足为奇,因为大多说人都说这一次的iphone推新并不是完全颠覆性的创作,只是其在原有的机子上做的一些改进。


Design

  设计


A video obtained by French tech site Nowhereelse.fr that matches up the new iPhone 7 with last year's iPhone 6s flagship.

法国一家名为Nowhereelse.fr的信息技术网站发布了一段视频,视频里面将即将上市的苹果7和去年上市的苹果6s做了一个相应的对比。


Dedicated Apple followers will be well aware of the rumours surrounding the next handset. Supposedly it will have a larger camera lens and a USB Type C connection at the bottom that will double up as the new headphone slot.

那些专业果粉们肯定会对新一代苹果手机的周边小道消息很敏感。据说新的手机照相机镜头比之前的大,底部C型USB接头将由单槽转为双槽,其一为耳机服务。



The model obtained in the video appears to closely match these rumours. There's certainly no 3.5mm headphone port on the base of the handset.

视频中展示出来的机型与上述的传言基本吻合。机子底部很显然没有出现没有3.5mm的耳机凹槽。


It also has the repositioned antenna on the corners of the handset rather than across the back.

而且手机的复位线已由原来的背部改为现在的周边部位。


But in terms of size and design, the alleged iPhone 7 looks very similar to the existing iPhone 6s.

但是无论是从尺寸还是设计上来说,所谓的iphone7看起来跟现在的6s十分相似。


Many tech fans felt the design change from the iPhone 5s to the iPhone 6 (and then 6s) was a hugely positive step - praising the thinner body and larger screen.

很多技术粉对之前5s到6(和6s)的设计变化大加褒扬,他们认为这是苹果公司迈出的比较成功的一步--从5s的小屏变成了之后的大屏。



Another video has emerged online of an iPhone 7 Plus mockup, offering what could be the best look yet at the upcoming smartphone. 

网上还有一段关于iphone7 Plus模型机的视频,说是即将上市智能手机中外观最美的手机。


The mockup, created by Chinese headphone company BeSound, reinforces all the rumours about the major hardware changes coming to the larger 5.5-inch model.

该模型的制作商为中国的耳机公司 Besound, 该模型也证实了所有硬件变化的谣言,也就是说新的一代机子屏幕会变成5.5英寸。


These include the dual lens camera , the missing headphone jack , twin external speakers, more discrete antenna lines , and the inclusion of a Smart Connector.

这些变化包括使用了双摄像头、取消了耳机插槽、外漏喇叭也从一个变成了两个、离散天线的线也增多了,还有就是增加了智能接头。


Moreover, the iPhone 7 Plus mockup comes in a deep metallic blue tone - suggesting the tech giant may be planning to expand its range of colours for the iPhone 7 range.

更有甚者,iphone7 Plus的模型机基色为深蓝调--这也暗示着苹果公司会在7系列手机的颜色上面下点功夫,让我们的可选性更大。


Impressive renders

  着色设计



Designer Martin Hajek has created several impressive 3D renders of what he thinks the iPhone 7 could look like.

其设计者Martin Hajek已经在其他自己对于iPhone7的幻想基础上设计了好几个酷炫的3D宣传效果。


Rather than the traditional Space Grey colour, Hajek has taken the Space Black finish from the Apple Watch and applied it to the phone.

Hajek抛弃了传统的灰色面漆,而是将曾应用于Apple Watch上的漆黑色应用于这款手机上。


His realistic-looking renders also show how many of the iPhone 7 rumours might look if they were implemented in a finished product.

他逼真的呈现方式,也让我们看到了,将所有些关于iphone7的谣言都集合于一身的机子到底长什么样。


The most persistent of which is that Apple will remove the headphone jack from the new iPhone and use the newer USB-C connection instead. There's more on that below - read on to find out.

传言中最硬的一条便是,苹果很有可能取消耳机插槽,取而代之C型USB接口。欲知详细,请看下文。


Are your expensive headphones about to become obsolete? First mainstream smartphone launches WITHOUT a 3.5mm socket

你那些昂贵的耳机是否会成为过去式? 苹果7将会是第一个取消3.5mm插槽的主流智能手机。


Hajek has added a pair of USB-C capable headphones in one of his shots to illustrate what that may look like.

在Hajek发布的其中一条视频中,他在iphone上加上了C型USB-耳机一式插槽,来给我们展示其外观。


Similarly, the camera lens has been enlarged to take into account a more powerful sensor and the antenna lines have been moved from across the back to the top and bottom of the phone.

同样的,其摄像机镜头已经被增大,以考虑增强其感应度。天线条也从背面顶部已到了手机的底部。



Apple's iPhone 6s may have been a big hit for the technology giant - but it didn't alter much when it came to design.

iPhone6s当时也引起了轰动,但究其原因会发现它不过是蹭了公司的名声,在设计上可没有什么大的变化。


That could be about to change as many rumours suggest next year's model may drop the iconic home button on the front of the gadget.

但是现在不一样了,因为很多传言都说明年的机子会取消屏幕前方的Home键。


One artist, Marek Weidlich, has created an intriguing concept of what that might look like.

艺术家Marek Weidlich也对其可能出现的样子有些概念。


(iPhone未来会长这样吗?)


Weidlich has turned the entire front of the futuristic smartphone into a screen - leaving no home button or any visible bezel.

Weidlich把手机前屏改成了一大块屏幕,上面既没有Home键也没有任何的可见的凹槽。


"I focused on simple design language which is very important for Apple," Weidlich said.

他说道:“我比较关注一些简单化设计--而这对于苹果公司来说是十分重要的。”


"I designed a curved display without a bezel, and equipped with a software home button."

“我设计的屏幕为弧形展示,上无凹槽,同时Home键作为嵌入软件的方式存在于手机中。”


Both Samsung and LG have embraced curvy screens with the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge and the LG G Flex 2 respectively.

三星和LG分别在其产品 Galaxy S6 Edge和 LG G Flex 2中应用了弧屏技术。


It's unlikely Apple will follow suit but then the world's most valuable company has frequently had a problem with bending phones.

很有可能苹果公司不会效仿这一做法,但是之后这家被称为世界上最有价值的公司开始频繁发现市面上有一些手机产生弯曲变形的问题。


Apple's last two releases have been with 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch screens. This covers a broad range and the tech giant could decide to keep things as they are.

上两次苹果推出的手机屏幕大小分别是4.7英寸和5.5英寸。这两个尺寸的跨度颇大,苹果公司有权决定这一版的尺寸依然照旧。



End of the Home button.

  Home键时代的结束


Pictures surfaced recently that appear to show a version of the phone with a completely blank front panel. They seem to suggest that Apple will drop its famous home key in favour of an on-screen button.

最近出现的一组图片显示,新版的苹果手机前屏是自成一片的,上无任何配件装饰。说是苹果为了在屏幕里面安置按键,将会取消长久以来名声显著的Home键。


Taken in China and obtained by the blog site Apple Insider , the pictures have now been widely circulated around the internet.

该组照片由博主Apple Insider上传至中国媒体,现在已经在网上疯传。


The shady pictures look to be taken quickly and without much thought to lighting or presentation. They show what is allegedly a new iPhone with a very different design.

这一组模糊不清的照片看起来像是速拍照,没有任何的灯光调配也没有任何的展现手法。照片上面的手机看起来也和传说中的手机有比较大的设计上的差别。


There is also no evidence of a headphone jack on the bottom of the phone. However, the external speakers on the bottom look similar to previous iPhone models.

同时,这组照片上也没有显示耳机插槽方面的信息。但是,图上显示的外扩喇叭似乎与之前的iphone手机差别不大。


On Chinese social media site Weibo, a new picture supposedly showing the back of the iPhone 7 has been doing the rounds.

在中国一个名为微博的社交网站上,有一张疑似为iPhone7背部的照片也在广泛传阅中。


The main noticeable detail is that the "camera bump" from the iPhone 6s appears to have carried over to the new design.

最值得关注的一个主要变化就是,之前6s的摄像机为隆起状,现在似乎也有了新的变化。


Dropping the headphone socket

  耳机插槽取消


Pictures were obtained by the Taiwanese site Apple Club , which previously published the first schematics showing the protuding iPhone 6 camera lens, before being republished by 9 to 5Mac.

台湾一个名为Apple Club的网站也爆出照片。该网站在9-5 Mac之前就爆出过6的照相机镜头各种电路图。


They appear to confirm rumours that Apple is set to remove the headphone socket from the iPhone 7

该照片似乎证实了苹果7会取消耳机插槽这一传言。


If true, this will probably mean anyone who buys the next version of Apple's iPhone will have to use wireless headphones or fork out for a pricey converter.

如果这个传言是真的,那就意味着买新版苹果手机的各位需要使用无线耳机进行相关操作,不然的话还得支付相当昂贵的一笔费用去买个转换器。


In January, the usual shadowy "supply chain sources" told a Chinese website that the 3.5 inch headphone jack will not be included on Apple's next mobile.

一月,名为“供应链资源”的人士于中国网站上透漏称,之前3.5英寸的耳机插槽会在最新一代手机中取消掉。


Recently, these rumours have been fuelled by images of a case for the new phone that apparently show no hole for the headphone wires.

最近一段时间,这个传言也开始愈演愈烈,因为网上开始有照片传出来,照片上面很明显是没有手机插槽豁口的。


The pictures, spotted by Nowhereelse.fr after they were published on Twitter, seem to support the rumour that Apple will ditch the headphone socket.

Nowhereelse.fr发现了改组照片,并稍后将其转发到了推特上面,似乎也在支持这个说新版手机会取消耳机插槽的观点。


There's no hole in the case for where a headphone socket should be - instead there are just spaces for the charging port and speakers.

照片的机子中本应有耳机插槽的地方没有了豁口,只剩下充电接口和喇叭。


Of course, there's no way of confirming the legitimacy of the case - but it serves as an interesting indicator for a potentially big design change.

当然,我们没有办法证明这个在传言的真实性,但是这算是一个比较有趣的指示,说明新一代的苹果手机会有比较大的设计变动。


Tech experts reckon that by removing the headphone socket, Apple engineers will be able to shave 1mm off the thickness of the phone.

有技术专家称,这个耳机插槽取消掉之后,苹果工程师能有办法将手机厚度降低1mm。


Meanwhile an insight coming from Deutsche Bank analysts by way of Business Insider , suggests that Apple will include a special adaptor along with the iPhone 7 instead of a pair of headphones.

与此同时,德意志银行精经由商业内幕网发布的分析预告说到,苹果会在苹果7 上面应用一个特殊的适配器,而不是耳机插槽。


Alleged iPhone 7 leak shows exactly how Apple's new gadget measures up against the iPhone 6s

一些所谓的iPhone7谍照正是证实了这一说法,显示了苹果不用于6s的一系列新配件。


"A Lightning-to-audio dongle included with the iPhone 7 - not a pair of Lightning headphones," reports the tech site.

技术网称:“iPhone7会用到闪电音频技术而非耳机。”


That would mean instead of plugging your headphones directly into the phone, you have to carry around an adapter with you everywhere you go. Or, use wireless headphones.

也就是说,相较于之前你需要把耳机直接插到手机里面,现在你要带着一个适配器到处跑,或者不用适配器的话,就要配一个无线耳机。


Business Insider calls Apple's strategy a "huge risk" and explains the Deutsche Bank information is from a "research note."

商业洞察网认为这一次的苹果公司是在做大冒险,同时也解释道,德意志银行发布的信息是通过调查得出的。


Specs

  存储空间



(据说iPhone7会在颜色上做文章)


Because the new iPhone will likely arrive with Apple's iOS 10 software and an upgraded processor, it will offer even more power and better efficiency.

新的iPhone很有可能会用到苹果的IOS.10 系统,处理器也有所更新,这也就意味着新的手机更好用,更耐用。


Likely to be boasting a processor called the A10 chip, the iPhone 7 will surely boast more power - although it's anyone's guess as to how much this will translate into actual usage.

很有可能他们会用之前被吹嘘的一个一据说十分牛逼的叫A10的芯片,那么他们肯定就会说7系列手机会更加牛逼啦--虽然这些被吹嘘的成分也被人怀疑过说到底能有多少能转化为真正能排的上用场的东西。


At the moment, we don't know what kind of battery the iPhone 7 will use - but at least there's now a Low Power Mode built into iOS 9 to help it last even longer. We expect this will continue into an updated version of iOS.

现在,我们还不知道iPhone7 到底会用什么电池,但是至少IOS9内置的一款耗电比较低的模型能够帮助降低手机的耗电率。我们希望这个内存的模型能够在之后更新的IOS系统中持续使用。


According to Korean site ETNews , Apple is currently in discussion with arch-rival Samsung over supplying OLED screens for its next phone.

根据韩国ETNews站点的消息说,苹果现在正在跟其劲敌三星探讨OLED在其下一代产品中的运用。


This would shift the display over from the current LED model to a much more vibrant OLED screen. Such a move would likely make for better colour reproduction for videos and games, but might hamper battery life.

这样的话,就会将显示屏从现在的LED屏幕换成更加有立体感有活力的OLED屏幕了。这样的变动很有可能会提高我们看电影、玩游戏等的观感度,但是会对耗电率有明显的影响。


Elsewhere, a leak Italian website from HDblog suggests that Apple's iPhone 7 Plus, which is expected to launch alongside the iPhone 7 this September, will feature a whopping 256GB of storage.

另外,从意大利一个名叫HDblog的网站提供的消息我们可以知道,苹果7plus将会在九月份和苹果7 一起在发布会上面世,7plus最大的一个特征便是其256GB的超大存储容量。


That's double the storage of an entry-level Macbook Air, and would make the iPhone 7 Plus Apple's most high-capacity smartphone yet.

256GB的容量是Macbook Air的两倍,两个产品的基准线已经完全不一样了。这么大的容量也使得7Plus成为苹果家族最具竞争力的产品。


The site shows pictures of a 256GB SanDisk NAND flash memory chip that "could be appropriate for the next generation smartphone", according to MacRumours .

网站还发布了这个容量为256GB的NAND闪电记忆内存卡。MacRumours称其为“适用于下一代智能手机的内存卡。”


(上为256GB,下为64GB)


Apple has used SanDisk flash memory chips in a number of previous iPhone models - including the iPhone 5, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus - so it wouldn't be surprising if the two companies decided to link up again for the iPhone 7.

苹果之前的产品上都有使用闪电记忆内存卡,例如iPhone 5, iPhone 6, and iPhone 6 Plus --所以,如果这两家公司进行合作,研发果7 的一些功能,也不足为奇。


However, one change could be a huge boon for Apple fans.

但是,苹果公司所做的每一个改变,对于果粉来说都会是巨大的赞赞赞!


Camera

  相机镜头


A photo claiming to be of the iPhone 7 Plus has surfaced on Chinese website Bastille Post , adding fuel to rumours that the smartphone will feature a dual-lens camera.

中国一个名为巴士底狱贴吧里面上传的照片也广泛流传,为之前说的双镜头相机留言加了一把火。


The picture shows a protruding, pill-shaped enclosure - which differs from the two separate circular camera openings depicted in some other online renderings.

这张照片上面的镜头呈突起形状,圆形-而这些特征都与之前其他网站上面说的关于相机镜头的消息不一致。


Meanwhile, a video claiming to show the flagship iPhone 7's transparent case has been uploaded to YouTube by Unbox Therapy , showing a large cut out for the rear camera.

同时,Unbox Therapy在YouTube上上传了一段视频,视频中作者将iPhone7透明化展示,显示出了手机后方相机镜头有明显变小的情况。


The advantage of a dual camera is that it could allow iPhone users to snap SLR quality photos and 3D images on a smartphone.

双镜头的好处还是有的,用户可以随时抓拍高清高质量甚至是3D的照片。


Last year, Apple bought an Israeli smart camera company called LinX Computational Imaging, which builds smartphone and tablet cameras with sensors that provide depths of field.

去年,苹果收购了以色列一家名为LinX Computational Imaging的智能相机公司,然后计划将智能手机和小照相机通过传感器连在一起,这算是个比较知得琢磨的领域。


The technology also allows for high quality images to be captured in low-light conditions.

这一技术应用之后,我们也可以在灯光不足的情况下拍出高质量照片。


Waterproof iPhone

  手机的防水性



(使用液态金属后,iPhone7将完全防水)


The misery of dropping your iPhone down the toilet could soon be over as the latest rumours suggest Apple's next iPhone could be completely waterproof.

手机掉进马桶这些事件在以后将不再是惨剧,因为有新的消息称,新的苹果手机防水性能一级棒。


According to a report in the China-based Commercial Times , Apple is working on a new "compound material" that repels water for use in its forthcoming smartphone, which it is thought will be called the iPhone 7.

根据中国商业时报的报道,苹果现在正在研发一种新的化学物质,该化学物质防水性能十分优异,将会在其新一代的智能手机(可能是iPhone7)上得以应用。


This new material will also reportedly remove the need for the two strips of plastic that run across the back of the current generation of iPhones to allow mobile signals to reach the antennas.

据说,该种化学物质应用于手机后,我们现在苹果手机后面那两条本为接受无线信号的塑料条也不再需要了。


This suggests that the body of the next iPhone may not be made from metal at all, but some other kind of material that allows radio waves to pass through it.

这也就是说,下一代iPhone的机身将不会是金属机身,而是某种能传导无线电波的特殊材料机身。


Industrial designer Herman Haidin has taken a stab at predicting the next version of Apple's handset and reckons the American tech giant could use a material known as 'liquidmetal'.

设计师Herman Haidin尝试着预测了下一版苹果手机的各种,估摸着美国苹果公司会使用一种名为“液体金属”的材料。


Apple acquired a patent for liquidmetal back in 2010 and uses it to make the small SIM ejector tool that comes in each iPhone box.

苹果早在2010年就申请了液体金属的专利,之后每一个iPhone手机上面的SIM卡槽上面都有其应用。


The material itself is a type of alloy that's tougher and more water-resistant than typical aluminium.

该材料本身是一种合成金属,它比一般的铝合金更硬,防水性能更好。


In the concept, Haidin envisions the iPhone 7 as a mere 3mm thick with a body formed of glass and liquidmetal

问及概念,Haidindui认为iPhone7是一个机身用玻璃和液体金属制作而成的,只有3mm厚的智能手机。


感觉好心动呀。


无论是超大的内存,新锐的设计,还是强大的拍照技术,以及完全防水的性能——妈妈再也不用担心我手机掉马桶了!每一项都好有诱惑力有木有?!


唯一不心动的就是价格呵呵呵。


想要入手的小伙伴们可以好好存钱努力吃土了。


不过如果是壕的话,就当小编没说,你开心就好。
