Core Viewpoint - The analysis indicates that Apple may benefit from a 15% increase in prices due to rising memory costs, although this could lead to a slight decline in unit growth as consumers may delay purchases or opt for lower-spec models [1][2]. Group 1: Price Impact and Consumer Behavior - A 15% price increase translates to approximately $150 more per device, which is significant and may deter some consumers from purchasing [1]. - Initial estimates for unit growth in fiscal year 2027 were around 5-6%, but these have been adjusted to flat growth due to price pressures on consumers [1][2]. Group 2: iPhone Sales and Future Projections - The strong sales of the iPhone 17 are attributed to many consumers upgrading from older devices that are four to five years old, which may also positively influence the iPhone 18 cycle [1]. - Despite the anticipated price pressures, there is a belief that the iPhone 18 cycle will still see some benefits from the current upgrade trend [1]. Group 3: Apple Intelligence and Market Position - The development of Apple Intelligence, particularly the anticipated Siri 2.0, is viewed as a critical factor for Apple's stock performance this year, especially given the company's two-year delay in this area [3][4]. - A partnership with Google for the Google Gemini project is expected to yield meaningful advancements in Apple Intelligence, potentially driving unit growth and service monetization [4][5]. - Overall, Apple Intelligence is considered a more significant driver for stock performance than price changes, leading to an increase in target price for the stock [5].

Memory chip prices have surged, driving a vast divide between winners and losers in the stock market, and investors don't see any end in sight. From Nintendo to Apple, suppliers are seeing their shares slump on concerns about profits. But memory chip producers are soaring to unprecedented heights.To put that in perspective, a Bloomberg gauge of consumer electronics makers is down 10% since the end of September. Meanwhile, a group of memory makers, including Samsung, has surged roughly 160%. The question now ...

在消费类电子产品行业，"造假"或者说"山寨"从来都不是很罕见的现象。 从行业的角度来说，这是因为山寨厂商也有成熟且强大的产业链，甚至有一些"芯片大厂"为了出货量在他 们背后撑腰。 最近，我们三易生活在多个媒体都看到了一款名为"Rogbid Fusion"的设备。 从市场的角度来说，山寨产品之所以一直存在，也是因为生产者和消费者实际上是"双向奔赴"。生产山寨 产品的人看中的是低成本和"蹭热度"可能带来的暴利。而买山寨的消费者则往往有一种侥幸心理，觉得兴 许能捡个便宜，或者如果别人看不出自己用的是山寨产品，多少还能"挣个面子"。 但正是因为大多数情况下这些山寨产品假得"直白又离谱"，所以大家也会注意到，主流的"正规媒体"绝大 多数情况下都绝不会去主动报道相关产品。因为如果报道了，就无异于是"助纣为虐"了。 这其实是一款"二合一智能戒指"。说它"二合一"，是因为与普遍的智能戒指不同，它在结构和外观上实际 上不像智能戒指，而更像是"迷你智能手表"。它有一个非常小的触摸屏，并可以通过更换不同的"表带"， 切换智能戒指和智能手环两种不同的"佩戴方式"。 但如果有那么一类山寨产品，正经的媒体普遍对其"毫不避讳"，甚至都不是 ...

【iMobile爱科技资讯】根据苹果近日获批的相机专利可以推测，苹果计划在2026年发布的 iPhone 18 Pro 系列中引入可变光圈技术。受此风向影响，曾在2020年放弃该技术的三星也决定重新跟进。据韩媒 ETNews报道，三星电子已要求其供应商三星电机及MCNEX开始生产可变光圈摄像头样品，试图在未 来的影像旗舰竞争中重夺话语权。 可变光圈技术在手机领域并非新鲜事。2018年三星曾在Galaxy S9系列上首次推出可在f/1.5和f/2.4之间切 换的物理光圈，但随后因机身厚度控制及成本压力，在S20系列之后便停止了该功能的迭代。随着近年 来国产厂商在可变光圈领域的深耕，以及苹果明确将其列入 iPhone 18 Pro 的升级清单，三星不得不重 新审视这一曾被自己弃用的技术路径。 可变光圈的核心优势在于能通过物理调节光圈大小来控制进光量与景深。在暗光环境下，大光圈能增加 通光量提升画质；而在光线充足的室外，收缩光圈则能带来更自然的背景虚化效果和更锐利的边缘表 现，有效减少计算摄影带来的塑料虚化感。 由于该项目仍处于早期开发阶段，这款可变光圈模组将 遗憾缺席即将于2026年2月发布的 Galaxy S2 ...
