Do you need a 256GB iPhone?
|
The first major news about iPhone 7 revealed in the industry in 2016 was that Apple was going to expand the capacity, and the maximum capacity version would be increased to 256GB, which was a big surprise for the New Year! When Apple was said to launch a 128GB iPhone, not many people believed it. Now there are rumors of a larger capacity, do you believe it? Do you think you need such a large capacity for your current iPhone? Nowadays, digital works are becoming more and more complex, the specifications are getting larger and larger, and user demand is getting higher and higher. For mobile phone manufacturers, launching high-capacity models has become a trend. In the first few years after the iPhone was launched, 16GB was enough for most people. However, now, the 16GB model seems to have been gradually abandoned or even spurned by consumers because it is really not enough. For the current iPhone 6s Plus, because this model supports 4K video recording, the storage space is full if you are not careful. Therefore, 64GB and 128GB iPhone models have also become popular. However, as time goes by, perhaps in the near future, 64GB and 128GB will also face the dilemma of the 16GB model, so Apple needs to prepare in advance. Recently, it was reported that in order to meet users' higher demand for storage, Apple may launch an iPhone with 256GB storage space this year. Supply chain sources said that we actually heard similar news long before the release of iPhone 6. At that time, it was rumored that the iPhone 6 Plus would have a capacity of 128GB to distinguish it from the iPhone 6. It is reported that Apple will continue to launch two flagship models this year, one is the 4.7-inch iPhone 7, and the other is the 5.5-inch iPhone 7 Plus. The latter has a capacity of 256GB, which is one of the main differences between the two new phones. Is the 16GB version going to be eliminated? From 8GB to 256GB ultra-large capacity smartphones, it has only been 5 years. It has to be said that technology has a huge impact. Whether it is Android or iOS devices, with the increase in operating applications, the memory space of mobile phones has gradually increased. The minimum capacity of mainstream mobile phones that have attracted much attention has reached 32GB, and 64GB has become a popular model, which is enough to show the great demand of consumers for large-capacity mobile phones. Since the release of iPhone 4 in 2010, Apple has launched a 16GB version. Currently, the capacity versions of Apple's iPhone series are 16GB, 64GB and 128GB. In fact, many users are very dissatisfied with Apple's setting the minimum capacity version to 16GB. As early as the year before last when Apple launched the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, many users were puzzled by the fact that Apple retained the minimum 16GB product. Because at that time, while the product performance was comprehensively improved, the memory required by the iOS 8 system released by Apple at that time was also very large. The 16GB capacity is a bit stretched. In addition, the application software is now more complex, and it needs to do more things and provide a richer experience, which also takes up more storage space. Last year, Apple raised the size limit of application software to 4GB, which means that a single application may take up 1/4 of the space. When users use applications, in addition to the size of the installation program, if they use it, with pictures and data cache, the application size will rise rapidly. Speaking of photos, the iPhone 5s and 6 take 8-megapixel photos with only 3MB size. If you take 200 photos a day, it only takes up 600MB of space. But the iPhone 6s has 12 million pixels, and the size of the photos is larger. Apple's Live Photos will consume more space. Not to mention 4K videos (300MB per minute), photos alone can consume 16GB of storage space. Of course, users can store photos in the cloud, but most users will not do so, but delete some photos. There are also media content such as music, movies and TV. Games will also take up a lot of space. Insufficient storage space will affect the experience, and users need to think about the space issue all the time. In addition, it is not impossible for Apple to cancel the 16GB capacity version. At present, in the Android camp, the lowest capacity version of many manufacturers' flagship smartphones is no longer the 16GB version, and it is not impossible for Apple to keep up with the development of the industry. So if Apple launches a 256GB capacity version this time, does it mean that the 16B version may disappear? Do you need 256GB capacity? When the mobile phone capacity is too small, users will also have concerns when using the device and need to consider carefully. If there is a large space of 256GB, users may not have this worry. You can install the applications you want to install, play the games you want to play, and watch the videos you want to watch. Especially now that the mobile phone screen is getting bigger and bigger, it is more convenient to operate. In other words, a 256GB mobile phone can more smoothly replace a computer to complete the things we need to do with a computer in our daily life. In fact, for many mobile phone users, the data that takes up the most memory is videos, pictures and social chat tools. Not to mention how much 256GB space can hold, take a user who uses a 64GB mobile phone as an example to see if you still need to expand the device. As shown in the figure, if the user does not save the data in the video software or playback software for a long time and cleans it up regularly, 64GB of space is enough for a long time. What is the capacity of the iPhone you are using now? Is it enough for your daily use? Do you think you need 256GB of capacity at present? It is not known yet what range they will set the price of if Apple launches a 256GB version of the iPhone. How much do you think the price of this version of the iPhone will be before you consider buying it?
