New iPhones: The iPhone XS and XS Max
新款iPhone: iPhone XS 及iPhone XS Max
Apple's got two new main versions of the iPhone this year: the iPhone XS (ten-ess) and XS Max.
蘋果本次發(fā)布了兩款主打新型iPhone：iPhone XS（10S）及iPhone XS Max。
In the past, Apple has released its new iPhone alongside a "Plus" model — since the Max is "bigger than Plus size," Apple's calling it something different.
以往蘋果發(fā)布新一代iPhone時都會一同發(fā)布“Plus”版，而此次的Max版比Plus版尺寸更大，所以蘋果用了不同的命名。
With a 6.5-inch "Super Retina" OLED display, the iPhone XS Max is a giant. It's got a giant-sized price tag to match: The iPhone XS Max starts at $1,099, with 64 GB of storage, and goes all the way up to $1,499 with 512 GB of storage.
iPhone XS Max配備6.5英寸“超視網(wǎng)膜”O(jiān)LED屏幕，尺寸相當大，價格也與之匹配：iPhone XS Max的64G版本售價1099美元（人民幣售價9599元）起，512G版本售價1499美元（人民幣售價12799元）起。
The iPhone XS directly replaces last year's iPhone X at the now standard iPhone price of $999 to start. The screen size stays at 5.8 inches, and the phone in general looks very similar to last year's model.
iPhone XS直接取代了去年的iPhone X（譯者注：iPhone X目前已從官網(wǎng)下架），目前售價999美元（人民幣售價8699元）起，屏幕尺寸仍為5.8英寸，與去年的iPhone X外形大致相同。
Here's a comparison, with the iPhone X on the left, the iPhone XS in the middle, and the XS Max on the right:
以下為對比圖，左圖是iPhone X，中間是iPhone XS，右圖是iPhone XS Max：
In the camera department, both the XS and XS Max have two 12-megapixel lenses on the back. Apple is touting a new feature called "Smart HDR," which seamlessly blends several different image frames into a single image. In short, the function is intended to make photos look sharper and have more natural light.
iPhone XS與XS Max后置雙1200萬像素攝像頭。蘋果引入了一種叫做“智能HDR”的功能，能將多幀不同曝光圖像無縫合成為一幀圖像。簡言之，就是使圖像看起來更清晰，光線更自然。
Another new camera trick is adjustable bokeh — you can snap a photo, and then adjust how blurry or sharp the background of your subject is.
新款攝像頭的另一個新功能是可調(diào)節(jié)光圈，你可以抓拍一張照片，然后調(diào)整主題背景的虛化程度。
But the biggest upgrade to this year's iPhone model is something you can't see: A new chip. The "A12 Bionic" chip is said to make the iPhone more powerful than ever.
但今年新款iPhone的最大升級是你看不到的：新的芯片。據(jù)稱，A12仿生芯片是iPhone迄今最強大的芯片。
Both the iPhone XS and XS Max are offered in three colors: gold, silver, and space gray. Additionally, there are three storage options for each: 64 GB, 256 GB, and — for the first time in an iPhone — 512 GB. Another notable addition: Both the XS and XS Max support a dual-SIM card system, enabling multiple phone numbers and easier international travel.
iPhone XS和XS Max均有金色、銀色、深空灰三種顏色，內(nèi)存有三種選擇：64 GB、256 GB以及首次增加的512G。另一個引人注目的新功能是：iPhone XS和XS Max都支持雙卡雙待，支持多個手機號碼，方便國際旅行。
Pre-orders for both phones are planned to start this week, on Friday, September 14; the phones are otherwise scheduled to be available in stores starting on the following Friday, September 21.
9月14日本周五起，這兩款手機均可接受預訂；9月21日下周五起將在商店出售。
A third iPhone: The iPhone XR
第三款iPhone：iPhone XR
Remember the iPhone 5C? It was a low-cost, colorful version of the iPhone 5S that used slightly less expensive materials to produce a very nice, less expensive phone.
還記得iPhone 5C嗎？售價低，外形像iPhone 5S的彩色版，使用價格稍低的材料制成，性價比高。
The iPhone XR is kind of that.
iPhone XR就有點類似于這樣。
Coming in at $749 to start, it's not exactly inexpensive. It is, however, comparatively less expensive than the iPhone XS ($999). It's also, size-wise, directly in between the new iPhone XS and XS Max — the iPhone XR has a 6.1-inch LCD screen.
iPhone XR售價在749美元（人民幣售價6499元）起，價格不是很貴，相對來說比iPhone XS便宜。XR的尺寸也很討喜，介于新款的iPhone XS和XS Max之間——為6.1英寸LCD屏。
The iPhone XR, internally, is nearly identical to the more expensive XS and XS Max. It's got the same A12 Bionic chip, powered by the same supporting hardware. It's got a similarly powerful battery that should carry most users through at least one day of use.
iPhone XR的內(nèi)置基本上和價格更貴的XS和XS Max相同。它同樣配置了A12 仿生芯片，有同樣的硬件支持。電池功能基本同樣強大，應該能讓大多數(shù)用戶最少使用一天。
It loses 3D Touch — perhaps another measure of the LCD screen — and only has one of the two 12 megapixel cameras found on the back of the iPhone XS and XS Max.
它擯棄了3D Touch功能——也許是LCD屏的另一種衡量標準——而且與iPhone XS和XS Max的后置雙1200萬像素攝像頭不同的是，iPhone XR配置的是單攝像頭。
But it has one incredible feature that neither the XS or the XS Max has: It comes in yellow.
但是它有XS和XS Max沒有的一大特點：它出了黃色。
The iPhone XR launches a bit later than the XS and XS Max: It's scheduled to arrive in stores on October 26, with pre-orders starting the prior Friday, October 19. The iPhone XR starts at $750 with 64 GB of storage, and goes all the way up to $900 for 256 GB of storage.
iPhone XR的上市時間比XS和XS Max稍晚，定于10月26日在店面出售，于前一周周五10月19日接受預訂。64G的售價為750美元（人民幣售價6499元元）起，256G的售價為900美元（人民幣售價7899元）起。
The Apple Watch Series 4
第四代蘋果手表
There are two new versions of the Apple Watch in two new sizes: 40 and 44 mm. The screens are slightly larger — 30% larger, Apple says — and they stretch further to the edges than ever before.
新一代蘋果手表有兩個尺寸——40mm和44mm。蘋果表示，新款手表屏幕增大了30%左右，并且比以往版本邊框更窄。
It's got a new, more powerful chip (the "S4") at its core that promises "up to two times better performance." The accelerometer has been improved to detect falls, and can auto-dial emergency services when necessary.
新一代手表配備了更強大的新芯片“S4”，承諾性能提升2倍。手表加速計改進后可以檢測摔倒行為，并在必要時自動聯(lián)系緊急聯(lián)絡人。
Perhaps most importantly, the Apple Watch Series 4 is a remote electrocardiogram machine — simply touch your finger to the digital crown and it will do its best job at approximating a real ECG. The function has even been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, according to Apple.
也許最大的改進是，第四代蘋果手表可用作遠程心電圖機——只要用手指觸碰數(shù)碼表冠，它就能測出幾近真實的心電圖。據(jù)蘋果稱，該功能已經(jīng)得到美國食品藥品監(jiān)督管理局的批準。
The new Apple Watch starts at $399, and comes in Silver, Black, and Gold. Pre-orders start on Friday, with in-store available expected to start on September 21.
新一代蘋果手表起價399美元（人民幣售價3199元），有銀色、深空灰、金色三種配色。預售將于9月14日開始，店內(nèi)首發(fā)預計將于9月21日開始。
i, OS 12 is coming
iOS 12 即將來襲
With iOS 12's arrival next Monday, September 17, Apple is making some major upgrades to its mobile operating system.
iOS 12 將于9月17日來襲，蘋果正在對其移動操作系統(tǒng)進行重大升級。
Perhaps most importantly of all, iOS 12 brings a major boost to older iPhones: 40% faster app launches, 50% faster keyboard pop-up, and a 70% speed increase in camera opening. In short, it will make older iPhones feel new-ish again.
也許最重要的是，iOS 12給老iPhone帶來了巨大提升：app啟動速度加快40%，鍵盤彈出速度加快50%，攝像頭打開速度加快70%。簡言之，這將使老iPhone重新煥發(fā)生機。
The new "Screen Time" function tracks how you use various apps, and allows you to set some boundaries. Want to make sure you only use all social media apps for a maximum of 20 minutes every day? Now you can set some hard limits (so at least you'll know when you're breaking those limits).
新功能“屏幕時間”能追蹤用戶如何使用各種app，并允許用戶設置時間界限。想把你每天使用各種社交app 的時間控制在20分鐘以內(nèi)嗎？ 現(xiàn)在你可以設置一些嚴格的時間限制（至少當你超過這些限制時自己會知道）。
Sadly, group FaceTime that supports up to 32 simultaneous participants is still missing from iOS 12 — Apple's planning to add it later this year.
遺憾的是，iOS 12仍未實現(xiàn)支持多達32名參與者的群組FaceTime功能——蘋果計劃在今年晚些時候添加這一功能。
