Apple unveiled its new iPhone 14 lineup at a press event on Wednesday, along with three new Apple Watch models, an update to its popular AirPods product line, and a feature that could save lives when cell service isn’t available.

蘋果公司在周三的新聞發布會上,發表新的iPhone 14系列、三款新的Apple Watch 型號、廣受歡迎的AirPods產品線的更新,以及一項可在無法使用手機服務時挽救生命的功能。

At a closely-watched event from its headquarters in Cupertino, California, Apple showed off four new smartphones, including a larger 6.7-inch iPhone 14 Plus model and an updated iPhone 14 Pro that rethinks the much-maligned notch. In typical Apple fashion, the devices also offer better battery life and camera features than the year prior.

在加州庫比蒂諾總部所舉辦的備受矚目的活動中,蘋果公司展示四款新的智慧型手機,包括一款更大的、 6.7英寸iPhone 14 Plus機型,以及一款反思了iPhone 14 Pro飽受詬病處的更新版。以典型的蘋果公司方式,設備方面還提供比前一年更好的電池壽命和相機功能。

The biggest surprise, however, may be the price: The iPhone 14 and 14 Plus will start at $799 and $899, respectively, the same starting prices as last year’s models. The iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max start at $999 and $1099, respectively, also unchanged from the year prior. Analysts widely predicted Apple would hike the price of the premium models by $100.

然而,最大的驚喜可能是價格:iPhone 14和14 Plus的起價分別為799美元和899美元,與去年機型的起價相同。iPhone 14 Pro和Pro Max的起價分別為999美元和1099美元,也與去年持平。分析師普遍預測,蘋果公司將把高端機型的價格提高100美元。

“It is impressive that Apple has maintained year-on-year pricing parity on the new iPhone 14 devices in the US,” said Ben Wood, chief analyst at market research firm CCS Insight. “We had anticipated that inflation, increased production and component costs, and other expenses such as more expensive shipping would have led Apple to increase its retail pricing.”

市場研究公司 CCS Insight 的首席分析師 Ben Wood 表示:「令人印象深刻的是,蘋果在美國新款 iPhone 14設備上,保持與去年同樣的定價。」「我們曾預期,通貨膨脹、生產和零件成本的增加以及其他費用(例如更昂貴的運費)會導致蘋果公司提高零售價。」
