The iPhone has been called a magical product because of its success over the years. However, now the iPhone seems to have lost its attraction.
Tim Cook, CEO of Apple, said in a recent letter that the company expected a revenue(收入)of $84 billion for the first fiscal quarter(財(cái)政季度)of 2019. It was much lower than the earliest expectation of between $89 billion and $93 billion. That was the first time that Apple had seen its revenue expectation fall in almost twenty years.
Cook explained that the fall was mainly because of the less growing need in China.
However, people believe that Apple itself is mainly responsible(有責(zé)任的)for the fall. Gene Munster told CNN that “one-third of the problem” comes from the company’s move to suddenly increase the price.
This has made people less willing to change the latest iPhones. For example, iPhone Xs Max, one of the company’s latest smartphones, costs $1450 in the US, and costs much more in other countries, including many developing countries, reported Forbes.
Apple has also failed to introduce features that excite people in a forward-thinking technology market, reported CNBC.
Meanwhile, Apple also faces challenges from smartphone makers in China such as Huawei and Xiaomi, which have introduced less expensive but still quality smartphones.
For example, in 2018, Huawei introduced a triple-lens camera(三攝鏡頭)on its P20 Pro. The triple-lens camera is a popular feature that the iPhone doesn’t have, according to CNBC.
“In the past few years, the technology in Apple’s phones has not had any big improvements, while the technology in smartphones made in China has got better and better ,” Feng Yin, a 32-year-old engineer in China, told The New York Times. “The difference is getting smaller.”
