What Apple has demonstrated with the iPhone X shows how a smartphone giant can handle both the hardware and the software can do terrible things as long as.

Thus, the most popular technology event has come through. Apple fans have admired the portraiture of the iPhone X. They have started the process of waiting until the end of this month ... until November to touch this piece.

But what really matters is on the sidelines of the event, Apple's biggest rivals are doing. Rumors are that Google is entering the final stage of negotiations to buy HTC, Pixel 2's outsourcing company, and is also the name Google has chosen to launch its first Android smartphone, the HTC G1.



There is a lot of controversy surrounding whether Google should or should not buy HTC. The "should not" say the Motorola scenario is likely to repeat itself, and that Google may be embarrassed by partners like Samsung, LG, and Sony. Voters "should" believe that merging a quality hardware name like HTC can help Google create phones that incorporate more hardware and software. It's clear that Pixel needs to make significant progress to be able to compete with its Android rivals, not to mention the iPhone.

If Google is still hesitant, what Apple has just shown to the iPhone X yesterday will likely make the search giant more and more intestines.



First, with the iPhone X (and also the iPhone 8/8 Plus), Apple has officially ousted the Android leg of every aspect of computing power. The iPhone has always been faster than Android and has a monochrome performance that Qualcomm and Samsung can not keep up with, but with the A11 Bionic, Apple surpassed Snapdragon 835's multi-core performance. actively. The controller's own logic allows Apple to activate a custom multiplier on the Bionic A11 while Snapdragon and Exynos can only activate one of the two big four or LITTLE (or activate all eight to ... benchmark fraud).

The remarkable power, along with other hardware enhancements, allows the iPhone X to offer a host of quality features that Android does not even dream of reaching: 3D image-recognition effects at just the wrong level. 1 / 1,000,000 (KGI Securities said Qualcomm will take two years to reach this milestone). No Android maker can produce Snapchat effects close to real surfaces like the iPhone. The picture is also thanks to the power of the A11, which is significantly denser than before.

Of course, that's just a small part of the future that the Bionic A11 can bring. The great advancement of the iPhone is also the great advancement of iOS: technologies such as BNNS, ARKit, Metal 2 or CoreML promise to help software developers reach the limits of utopia in the future.



At the same time, Google will certainly take a long time to create technological achievements on a par with what Apple has just shown. Google knows very well, Apple is able to do this because Apple has extremely deep control of both hardware and software. Apple does not just control how applications access the hardware (through the driver and operating system), but also on a variety of chips on the phone. In addition to Apple, there is not a company that custom deep into ISP (video processing chip) or create ... motion sensor chip for your phone.

All Android manufacturers have only a few software features that are not very useful to try to be different from the rest. Even Samsung is often deprecated in the garbage software era of Galaxy S3, S4 and recently for Bixby virtual assistant. On the hardware side, the Android race is largely focused around such factors as screen, camera and multiplier / chip clock. The task of catching up on a chip revolution like the A7 64-bit or recently is the 3D recognition on the Bionic A11 is entirely up to Qualcomm, while truly meaningful platforms like ARCore only have Google taking charge.



Stepping into the era of "super technology" like AR and AI, Google can not continue to model the current discrete Android anymore. Breakthroughs in hardware and software need to have a focused vision instead of being split in for partners willing to "steal" each other: Samsung has tweeted Tizen, many companies Android shook hands with Microsoft, Google also has Pixel. Google's technological prowess is certainly not inferior to Apple's, but for that power to shatter, the search giant needs to transform itself into a hardware giant as soon as possible.

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.
