現(xiàn)在看來,iPhone 12很可能會推遲上市,但時間不會太長
While some leaks suggest the iPhone 12 could land in September, as is typical of Apple’s smartphones, the majority of sources are pointing to a delay. That includes people who we’d really expect to know what they’re talking about, such as Hock Tan, the chief executive officer of Broadcom (a company which is expected to supply wireless components for the iPhone 12).
雖然有消息稱,iPhone 12可能會在9月上市,這是蘋果智能手機的典型特點,但大多數(shù)消息來源都指出iPhone 12將推遲上市。這其中包括我們真正希望知道他們在說什么的人,比如博通(一家有望為iPhone 12提供無線組件的公司)的首席執(zhí)行官霍克·譚。
Tan’s claims came in a recent earnings call, in which – according to Bloomberg – he said there would be a “major product cycle delay” at a “large North American mobile phone” maker. While he didn’t mention Apple by name, there aren’t too many companies that could fit that description, and Bloomberg claims he’s used that description for Apple in the past.
據(jù)彭博社報道,譚是在最近的電話會議上發(fā)表上述言論的。他在電話會議上表示,作為一家“北美大型手機制造商”,“產(chǎn)品周期將出現(xiàn)重大延遲”。雖然他沒有提到蘋果的名字,但是沒有多少公司能符合這個描述,彭博社稱他過去曾用這個描述來形容蘋果。
This delay, he said, would lead to a revenue bump in the fourth quarter of the year, rather than the third quarter.
他說,這一延遲將導致今年第四季度的收入增長,而不是第三季度。
Probably still landing this year
可能還會在今年發(fā)布
It’s not totally clear from this when the iPhone 12 range would launch, but it sounds like September is unlikely, but that it will still be coming this year. That’s in line with another recent report which suggested the iPhone 12 range could be pushed back to November.
目前還不清楚iPhone 12何時會發(fā)布,但似乎不太可能在9月發(fā)布,但它仍然會在今年發(fā)布。這與最近的另一份報告一致,該報告稱iPhone 12系列可能會推遲到11月。
However, there are a couple of things to note. Firstly, while Tan seems like a solid source in this matter we’d still take this with a pinch of salt, especially as he didn’t specifically mention Apple by name.
然而,有幾件事需要注意。首先,雖然譚在這件事上似乎是個可靠的消息來源,但我們還是不能全信,尤其是他并沒有具體提到蘋果的名字。
Secondly, even if the iPhone 12 range is delayed in hitting stores, it’s possible that it will still be announced at Apple’s usual September event.
其次,即使iPhone 12延遲上市,它仍有可能在蘋果慣常的9月發(fā)布會上發(fā)布。
