蘋果新產品iPhone SE迴歸小尺寸 中國大陸將首發
Apple Inc. on Monday unveiled a new smartphone and a new tablet both having smaller screens in its efforts to retool its product lineup of iPhones and ipads.
蘋果公司於本週一發佈了新款的小屏智能手機和平板電腦，以此來更新其iPhone和iPad產品線。At an event held at its headquarters in Cupertino, California, the Silicon Valley technology company also announced a series of upgrades to its hardware products, including Apple TV and Apple Watch, and software services, such as iOS.
在位於加利福尼亞庫比蒂諾的總部舉行的產品發佈會上，這家硅谷科技巨頭還宣佈了包括蘋果電視和蘋果手錶硬件的一系列更新，此外還有例如iOS等軟件服務方面的更新。The new phone, named iPhone SE, has a 4-inch screen, same as the iPhone 5 series initially released in 2012 and smaller than the iPhone 6 series rolled out about a year ago. iPhone 6 and 6s have 4.7-inch screens, and iPhone 6 Plus and 6s Plus have 5.5-inch screens.
本次推出的新款手機命名爲iPhone SE，屏幕大小爲4英寸，和2012年最初發布的iPhone 5系列產品一樣大，比1年之前發佈的iPhone 6系列產品要小一些。iPhone 6和6s的屏幕大小爲4.7英寸。而iPhone 6 Plus和6s Plus則是5.5英寸。
The 4-inch iPhone SE has the same processing and graphics performance of the larger iPhone 6s, the firm said, and can capture 4K video.
蘋果方面表示，4英寸的iPhone SE的處理和圖像性能與尺寸較大的iPhone 6s無異，能夠拍攝4K視頻。Greg Joswiak, head of iPhone marketing, explained that Apple has witnessed that its 4-inch devices still have a huge market, and therefore has packed into iPhone SE functionalities as powerful as those in iPhone 6s.
iPhone產品營銷總裁格雷格·喬斯維亞克表示，蘋果公司發現，4英寸屏幕的設備仍然有巨大的市場，因此公司把和iPhone 6s一樣強大的功能也都注入到了iPhone SE這款手機當中。With a starting price of $399, the new iPhone is the "most affordable" handset Apple has ever released, Apple said.
蘋果公司表示，起售價399美元的iPhone SE是蘋果有史以來發布的"最便宜"的iPhone。The new iPad Pro will have a 9.7 inch screen - the same size as the original iPad. It would be available in three different storage sizes with an extra large 256GB version for the first time.
此外，新款iPad Pro的屏幕大小與第一代iPad一樣是9.7英寸，共有三種儲存容量版本可選，首次新增了256GB超大容量版本。The Chinese mainland is among the initial batch of 12 markets where the new iPhone SE and iPad Pro will be released on March 31.
iPhone SE和新款iPad Pro將於3月31日正式發售，12個首發市場中包括中國大陸。
