2019年9月11日凌晨，万众瞩目的「科技春晚」苹果新品发布会拉开序幕。
Everything you need to know about Apple’s iPhone 11 event summed up in a two-minute video
Soyacincau
This morning, Apple just concluded what could very well be one of its most significant keynote events ever and it's a doozy. Three brand new iPhones, a new Apple Watch, and a new iPad.
表示“极好（极坏，极奇怪，极大等）的东西；异乎寻常的东西；独特的事物”，英文解释为“something that is extremely good, bad, strange, big etc”举个🌰：
I’ve heard lies before, but that one was a real doozy!
谎话我以前也听到过，不过这个谎可是太离谱了！
There's a lot to take in and the full keynote is over one hour and forty minutes long. That might be too much for a lot of people. It's a good thing then that Apple has compressed all the interesting points of the keynote in this punchy two-minute video.
表示“（文章或演讲）简短有力的，简练的，精简的”，英文解释为“a punchy piece of writing or speech is short but very clear and effective”举个🌰：
A good way to sound confident is to use short punchy sentences.
一个听上去充满自信的好方式，是要把话说在点子上。
Take a look to catch everything you need to know what Apple released together with the iPhone 11 today.The new iPhones are cheaper than the models they replace and feature more significant upgrades than previous versions. The main highlight is, of course, the triple camera 5.8-inch iPhone 11 Pro (and the 6.5-inch iPhone 11 Pro Max). For the first time ever, the iPhone gets an ultra-wide-angle camera which I feel is much more practical and useful in day-to-day situations than a telephoto lens.
· 超广角（ultra-wide-angle），An ultra wide-angle lens is a lens whose focal length is shorter than the short side of film or sensor.
· 远摄镜头（the telephoto lens），A telephoto lens is a powerful camera lens which allows you to take close-up pictures of something that is far away.The base model iPhone 11 with 64GB of storage will sell for RMB5,499. The iPhone XR, which the iPhone 11 replaces, with 64GB sold for RMB6,499 at launch.
The iPhone 11 Pro with 64GB for storage will sell for RMB8,699 on when it goes on sale in China. Last year, the model the iPhone 11 replaces, the iPhone XS sold for RMB8,699 when it was launched last year.The iPad, the original tablet that created a whole new niche in personal computing over seven years ago is now in its seventh iteration. The latest version departs from the familiar 9.7-inch form factor and is now 10.2-inch but uses the older A10 processor compared to the current A12 chip in the iPad Air and iPad mini, and the A12X in the iPad Pro.
表示“（产品或服务的）商机；市场定位”，英文解释为“an opportunity to sell a product or service to a particular group of people who have similar needs, interests etc”举个🌰：
He spotted a niche in the market.
他发现了市场中的一个商机。
On the plus side, the iPad is compatible with the Apple Pencil (first gen) and the various keyboards that work with the other iPads. In terms of pricing, the new iPad will be the cheapest iPad in the current lineup.
表示“优点的；好的”，英文解释为“used to describe an aspect of sth that you consider to be a good thing”举个🌰：
One of the hotel's plus points is that it is very central.
那个旅馆的优势之一是它处于市中心。
On the plus side, all the staff are enthusiastic.
好的方面是职员的工作热忱都很高。
Along with the iPhone 11 and the new iPad, Apple also showed off their new watch. The Apple Watch Series 5 features a slightly tweaked design and while the display remains the same, utilising an AMOLED panel, it now features a new tech that promises to conserve battery life significantly. So much so that the new Watch has an always-on display.
动词，表示“稍稍改进（如系统或设计）”，英文解释为“If you tweak something such as a system or a design, you improve it by making a slight change.”举个🌰：
He expects the system to get even better as the engineers tweak its performance.
他期望在工程师对该系统的性能稍加改进后，它会运行得更为良好。
Aside from that, the Apple Watch Series 5 carries the same 44mm and 40mm case size as the Apple Watch Series 4 as well as many of its features, including ECG, fall and detection. The Series 4 has been discontinued to make way for the Series 5. Interestingly, however, the Series 3 remains in the Apple Watch lineup as a cheaper option.
