…
Abstract, this year is definitely the biggest upgrade of the iPhone standard version in recent years!
A19 chip, upgraded to 120Hz Promotion high-brush, upgraded screen material and brightness, upgraded ultra-wide angle and front-facing camera, starting at 256G storage, starting at 5999, real increase in volume and no increase in price.
No wonder many people say that the iPhone 17 is the most cost-effective iPhone!
So, if nothing unexpected happens, the iPhone 17 will definitely be popular! It will also attract many old iPhone users who have not changed their phones for 5-6 years.
As for Android manufacturers, it will be miserable. The standard iPhone version suddenly became so cost-effective, and it is likely that a number of Android flagship phones will be difficult to sell.
The reason is also very simple, Apple has always had a great advantage in the high-end mobile phone market. In reality, if the price difference between the same grade is less than 1,000, most people will choose Apple, and even 1,500 or 2,000 will give priority to Apple!
Next, let's see how Android manufacturers take the initiative, especially the domestic companies have increased their prices in the past two years, and they have eaten the national supplements.
It's time to put some pressure on it!
