Last night was the night of the iPhone X, so that people do not even care about the iPhone 8.
Although the introduction of a total of 4 devices during the event last night, the reality is that in all we are likely to have only one iPhone X. The appearance of the iPhone X obscures all products including the phone. Maybe they will buy in a month to come: iPhone 8.
iPhone 8 released the following things that the user does not notice, or even Apple did not publish:
- Wireless charging.
- Fast charger.
- The back of the back is no longer the horizontal antenna line ugly.
Two of the three issues could be made possible by a huge shift from Apple on the next-generation iPhone. That is to throw away the monolithic design.
Why abandon the "monolithic" path?
Monolithic is the design philosophy applied by Apple since the iPhone 5. When the entire body is made of a hollow aluminum block inside, the body is just like a box of body and screen. There is no such thing as iPhone 4.
Writing this monolithic product design will help make the product feel better, eliminating the feeling of "lifting" the phone for a long time.
But that is also the main weakness that makes the technology popular on Android can not appear on the iPhone.
The first is wireless charging, wireless charging is essentially the principle of electrically induced transmission through the coils placed in the charging cradle and in the phone, the simple requirement of this technology is between two coils are not shielded. Because of the metal, therefore, iPhone 5 to iPhone 7, even if Apple wants, can not do wireless charging.
The second is to throw away the ugly antenna fringe. When the iPhone 6 was released, we constantly mocked Apple's design team for having an antenna loop running down the back of the shiny camera. But no one understands that if you do not put that plastic escape in the middle of a metal block, your iPhone will only be used as an iPod.
So it's precisely because of the design of the monolithic body that the iPhone 8 can confidently throw right away the blind lines that go.
Looking back on the structure of the iPhone 8, everyone would find it too much like the iPhone 4: glass back cover, steel frame instead of aluminum easily peeling scratches. Tim Cook has come a long way to finally return to the perfect design of Steve Jobs.
