导读:你是否也有这样的感觉，iPhone已经不再像以前那样炙手可热了。那到底是什么原因呢？
Apple isn’t introducing the features that people want
苹果公司未推出人们想要的产品特色
A great example is the iPhone 7, which various rumors indicated (wrongly) could get features like wireless charging, a redesigned body, an invisible home button, and an OLED screen. Not all of those features are necessary upgrades, but some of them — like faster charging capabilities, a more powerful chip, and even the Apple SIM — could have made the iPhone 7 a much more compelling upgrade.
一个十分典型的例子即是iPhone7，各种流言表明（错误的），iPhone7可能会有无线充电、重新设计的机型、隐形主页按钮和OLED显示屏这些特色。并不是所有的这些特色都是必要的升级，但是有一些——如快速充电功能、功能更强大芯片、甚至是苹果公司用户识别卡——都有可能使iPhone7成为一款更具吸引力的升级手机。
While there are iPhone 7 features worth getting excited over, including water resistance and improved battery life, this year’s iPhone launch failed to bring many of the features that iPhone fans wanted.
虽然iPhone7的一些特色，包括防水和电池寿命增加，能够让人兴奋不已，但是今年的iPhone却没有带来iPhone粉丝想要的很多功能。
A one-, two-, or three-year-old iPhone is often good enough
用上一年、两年或者是三年的iPhone性能还是很好
Many users are waiting for something better
很多用户在期待着更好的东西
Each year, consumers realize all over again that there’s never a good time to buy an iPhone. That’s because whenever you purchase one, there’s always going to be a newer, better one on its way. Rumors are already starting about the iPhone 7s or iPhone 8, or whatever Apple is going to call its 2017 iPhone. Plenty of iPhone users are opting to hold off on purchasing a new iPhone until a new model really wows them — and if analysts like Ming-Chi Kuo are correct, waiting another year or so is probably a sound strategy.
每一年，消费者都会再次意识到永远都不会有购买iPhone的最佳时机。这就是为什么无论你何时购买iPhone，一部更新款、功能更好的iPhone总会上市。无论苹果公司将称2017年的iPhone为什么，关于iPhone7s或者是iPhone8的流言早已开始。很多iPhone用户选择推迟购买一部新的iPhone，直到新款确确实实发布了——如果郭明志这类分析人士是正确的，等上一年左右可能是一个极佳的战略。
