实用科技英语:苹果iPhone5功能细节曝光

被乔布斯否定的原型

根据海外科技网站SAI的报道，有消息人士向他们披露，自己已经拿到了苹果iPhone5的原型机，并且透露了关于这款新机的一些细节。按照这位消息人士的爆料，苹果本来希望在今年发布iPhone 5，但是在iPhone 4S发布的前几个月却突然改变了这些计划，所以人们最后看到的是苹果iPhone 4S。

苹果取消iPhone5的发布，或许与原型机所配备的触控屏为4.0英寸有关。按照消息人士援引苹果内部员工的传闻，是乔布斯本人否定了这种全新设计的iPhone原型机，他认为4英寸的触控屏将破坏iOS平台的生态系统，使开发者们很难为iOS开发应用，而这也是苹果一直尽量避免的事情。

4.0英寸触控屏

虽然还不能断定iPhone5原型机是就此夭折，还是延迟到明年发布，但至少从消息人士提供的一些细节来看，这款真正的新一代iPhone还有拥有诸多变化和亮点。

首先，iPhone5原型机的触控屏尺寸从过去的3.5英寸增至4.0英寸，与三星GALAXY S一样的大小；其次，iPhone5原型机的机身材质完全由苹果内部制造的材料完成，并非普遍的原型机材质。还有就是在机身背盖的处理上，此次苹果引进了iPad2的铝制外壳设计，在外形上也更平滑一些。

没有物理Home键

苹果iPhone5或许在外观色彩上会有更多变化，因为将会引入液态金属技术用作机身的着色。使用这种技术着色后的机身最大的特色是即便长期使用后也不会褪色或是掉色的现象。不过，真正值得关注的还是苹果iPhone5如传闻那样取消了物理Home键，应该是采用类似虚拟键的方式，用户在按住后不放便可以重启手机。

如传闻中那样，苹果iPhone5将会变得更纤薄。只是目前原型机的触控屏的色彩配置看起来有些凌乱，但不排除是苹果伪装原型机的一种手段。作为新一代iPhone，苹果应该会为该机配备更好的触控屏。

内置千万像素摄像头

尽管现在苹果iPhone4S的内置摄像头已经达到了800万像素，但在苹果iPhone5原型机上装载的摄像头却将达到千万像素级别，如此“大跃进”的风格着实让人惊讶。此外，苹果iPhone 5也同样会内置Siri，但名称已改为“Assistant（助手）”，至于功能上是否更大幅度的升级，则没有更确切的消息。

值得一提的是，苹果iPhone5原型机的运行相比普通iPhone快了许多，但据说这样是由于苹果拆掉了限制器的缘故，但也可能是为了掩饰iPhone5的实际功耗，因为该机的电池续航能力出现了显著的下降。

当然，以上说法皆是所谓消息人士的爆料，其真实程度还无法确认。但至少可以肯定的是，为了在未来继续保持领先优势，苹果应该会在新一代iPhone上引入更多不同寻常的设计，其功能上的升级也将是更加的全面。

Jobs was no prototype

According to the overseas technology website SAI reports， message personage to them are disclosed， they got the apple iPhone5 prototypes， and revealed some details about the new machine. According to the news of the bid， Apple had hoped to release this year in the iPhone 4S iPhone 5， but released a few months before suddenly changed these plans， so people see is the last apple iPhone 4S.

Cancels the apple iPhone5 release， perhaps with the prototype equipped with touch screen is 4 inches on. According to sources citing Apple employee hearsay， is Jobs himself rejected this new design prototype iPhone， he thinks the 4 inch touch screen will disrupt the iOS platform ecosystem， so that developers are difficult for iOS development and application， and it is also the apple has been avoided.

4 Inch Touch Screen

Although it can not be concluded that iPhone5 prototype is collapse， or delay to next release， but at least from the sources provided few details， this really is a new generation of iPhone also has a lot of change and highlights.

First of all， the original iPhone5 touch screen size from 3.5 inches to 4 inches in the past， and Samsung GALAXY S the same size; secondly， the iPhone5 prototype airframe material composed entirely of Apple internal manufacturing material， not universal prototype material. There is on the back cover of treatment， the Apple introduced the iPad2 aluminum housing design， the shape is more smooth.

No physical Home key

Apple iPhone5 perhaps in the appearance of color will be more changes， because will introduce liquid metal technology used in the coloring. Using this technique the colored fuselage is the largest of the characteristics even after long-term use will not fade or fade phenomenon. However， the real concern or apple iPhone5 as rumors that cancels the physical Home key， should be used is similar to the virtual key， user on hold after it can restart the mobile phone.

As the rumors that iPhone5 will become more slim， apple. Only the prototype touch screen color configuration looks messy， but not to the exclusion of apple is a means of camouflage prototype. As a new generation of iPhone， Apple will be better for the machine is equipped with touch screen.

The built-in million pixel camera

Although apple iPhone4S ‘s built-in camera has reached 8000000 pixels， but in the apple iPhone5 prototype loading on the camera will reach 10 million pixel level， so the “great leap forward” style is really surprising. In addition， the apple iPhone 5 will also have built-in Siri， but the name has been changed to “ Assistant （ Assistant ）， as” functions are more substantial upgrade， then no more exact information.

It is worth mentioning that， the apple iPhone5 prototype run much faster than ordinary iPhone， but it is said that this is because Apple removed the limiter ’s sake， but it is also possible to conceal the real iPhone5 power， because the plane‘s battery life dramatically decreased.

Of course， the above statement is the so-called news of the bid， the true extent cannot be confirmed. But at least it is certain， in order to continue in the future to maintain a leading edge， Apple will be in the new generation of iPhone introducing more unusual design， the function of the upgrade will also be more comprehensive.
