Apple recently officially launched the iPhone 11 series and the Apple Watch series 5. Because Taiwan was designated as the launch market for the new models, along with a wider range of purchasing channels, the long queues seen in the past have gradually decreased. Even though Apple has opened two direct-to-consumer stores in Taipei, 101 and A13, the actual queues are relatively small compared to those offered by telecom operators who offer extra gifts for waiting in line.
However, there were still several Apple fans waiting in line at the Apple A13 store before 8 a.m., and the first person in line was already waiting at the store entrance in the early hours of the morning. Other consumers waiting in line at the entrance of telecom operators' channels had been waiting in line even earlier, mainly to receive the additional queuing gifts and purchase discounts prepared by the telecom operators for early bird consumers.
Many people opted for the iPhone 11 Pro Max in Midnight Green, but many also opted for the iPhone 11 in various colors. Many also believe that the newly released iPhone 11 is more than sufficient for their needs, while offering a relatively good value at a reasonable price.
Since there are relatively diverse channels for purchasing mobile phones in Taiwan, and many people are already accustomed to buying mobile phones through online channels, the vast majority of purchases are still completed through e-commerce or telecom operators' online channels.
The most significant change in the iPhone 11 series is the addition of an ultra-wide-angle lens design and the replacement of the A13 Bionic processor with higher computing performance. In addition, the Apple logo on the back has been slightly moved down, and the word "iPhone" has been removed, making the back of the body more simple.
The new phone also emphasizes the addition of a night shooting mode, precise HDR effects rendered by artificial intelligence technology, and spatial perception positioning technology, which is expected to be launched on September 9 and operates in conjunction with the U30 chip built into the new phone. This allows users to accurately push mobile phone content to the target object via AirDrop, and there may even be more application modes in the future.
