Chapter 307: Big Price Reduction
"Okay, now I would like to invite Mr. Cook, CEO of Shensi Technology and everyone's old friend, who will introduce the much-anticipated DT2 to you!" Jiang Yuan said with a smile.
DT2οΌ
Everyone's attention was immediately focused.
Since DT1 created the first year of real smart glasses, I don't know what DT2 will bring after a year.
At this time, Cook, like Jiang Yuan, slowly rose from the center of the stage:
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang!" he hugged Jiang Yuan as soon as he stepped on the stage.
At this time, everyone realized that Cook was no longer the gray-haired old look he had a year ago, as if he was a year or two years younger, which was incomprehensible.
Before the DTech press conference, Cook, who had been running on both sides of Shensi Technology and Apple, had not been exposed in public for a long time.
"Huh, did you notice that Cook's hair is all black?" a tech company boss asked a female subordinate next to him.
"yes, did he dye his hair?" guessed the female subordinate.
The boss said suspiciously:
"No, if you look at his movements, he doesn't look like an old man who is almost 60 years old at all, and even if his hair can be dyed, how can his skin be smooth? β
The female subordinate's eyes suddenly lit up:
"Could it be that Cook has undergone skin rejuvenation treatments!"
"No, this kind of technology is not mature, and these bigwigs will not test it personally. The boss retorted.
The female subordinate said excitedly:
"It must be skin regeneration, even he has been treated, it can only show that the technology is mature! Boss~ People also want to try ......"
"Well, well, let me see your skin condition at night before making a decision. β
......
"Hello everyone, today I brought two products. Cook pointed to the golden glasses on the bridge of his nose:
βDT2......β
At this time, in everyone's field of vision, the lens zoomed in to show this golden smart glasses. It's a little more refined than the DT1, but it doesn't make much difference from the outside.
"And......" Cook took out a pair of white glasses from his pocket, held them in the palm of his hand, and smiled:
βiGlassοΌβ
There was an uproar at the scene.
"Wow!"
"Oh my God! iGlass has also been released! There was no news at all before, and Apple's secrecy is really in place this time!"
"Of course, this time Apple used the production line of Shensi Group, so it can do a good job of keeping the information confidential. The point of the question is that iGlass was actually released at the press conference of Shensi Group, and what else was released at Apple's press conference?
"I don't care what Apple released at the press conference, but now with Shensi Group, Apple's attractiveness has dropped significantly, isn't it the best choice to rub the popularity of DT2?"
Cook put iGlass in his pocket and began to introduce:
"After a year of research and development, we finally launched the latest DT2, which is undoubtedly an amazing device! It inherits the excellent design of the DT1, and it is still a split design, consisting of three parts: the glasses assembly, the main unit assembly and the battery assembly, but we have made great improvements. β
"First of all, the DT2 eyewear assembly has a better ZEISS lens in true color, and the number has been upgraded from four to five. Thanks to this, the DT2 has a 50% wider color gamut than the DT1, and night vision is supported by default to make it easy for users to use at night. In addition, the DT2 also supports high-speed photography at 960 frames per second, so photography enthusiasts can shoot slow motion with the DT2. β
"Secondly, the lightweight material of the housing of the eyewear components continues to be optimized, and the default configuration of the DT2 is 8 grams lighter than the DT1, reaching an unprecedented 34 grams, and it is stronger!"
"In addition, the glasses assembly integrates the better pons of the third generation, which is 30% lighter than the pons, but the performance is completely at the level of the pons generation!"
Cook bragged as usual, but the audience didn't buy it.
"This DT2 is very ordinary!"
"yes, it's nowhere near as amazing as the DT1 back then. β
"That's right, how can breakthrough innovation be so easy to make, the performance upgrade is very good, I just want to be cheaper, otherwise I still can't afford ......"
"Upstairs is right, I don't know if the price of DT1 will be reduced when DT2 is listed, if it is reduced to less than 40,000, I will grit my teeth and cut my kidney!"
"I think 960 fps is good for high-speed photography. β
"Why buy a more expensive DT2 when you can buy a professional camcorder in order to shoot high-speed video?"
Netizens who watched the press conference felt disappointed.
Compared with the DT1 that changed the world, the upgrade of the DT2 can only be regarded as a regular performance upgrade, which is really average.
Cook knew the psychology of the audience, and he continued to laugh quietly:
"Finally, it is the most important upgrade, the chip of the host component is upgraded to X2!X2 chip standard version is equipped with 16G memory, 512G storage, CPU is 5nm process 64-bit 3.0G12 core, of course, the previous GPU, wireless chip, wireless charging receiver chip, brain signal scanning chip, brain signal analysis chip have been upgraded to varying degrees, these functions are all integrated into the faster, lighter, stronger and more power-saving X2. Thanks to the lightweight of the X2 chip, the overall weight of the host has also been reduced by 20 grams to only 106 grams!"
Bang Bang Bang!
The audience clapped their hands perfunctorily, apparently unfazed by it.
Isn't this like Cook presiding over Apple's iPhone upgrade strategy?
Unexpectedly, after he hosted Shensi Technology, the DT series also fell!
Cook continued:
"At present, wireless charging is developing rapidly, and many places in the city where we live have wireless charging transmission points. Therefore, in response to this situation, the host component of DT2 has been upgraded to achieve 'infinite docking'. Of course, in order to prevent a short period of poor charging signal, the main unit has a built-in miniature battery, which can support 30 minutes of emergency. β
The audience was talking.
"Well, this sounds pretty good, and it's a little more convenient to get one less component. β
"Especially in places like the Deep Thinking Zone, wireless charging has no dead ends, you don't need to carry a battery module when you go out, and your pocket can be tapped. β
"The overall upgrade is good, but it doesn't have much impact, not as shocking as the DT1 when it came out. β
Cook waited for the others to quiet down, and continued:
"Of course, none of the above upgrades are nothing, just regular upgrades!"
The spirit of the crowd could not help but be shocked.
Sure enough, Shensi Group really hid a big move!
"The most important breakthrough is that the DT2 has greatly improved cost control, and it is unimaginably cheaper!"
"DT2 standard version, the price is 24999RMB, the unified price abroad is 6999 US dollars! The preferential price for Chinese students, 16999RMB, the unified price for foreign students is 4999 US dollars! If it is a collective purchase by domestic universities, Shensi Group can provide an ultra-low price of 12999RMB! At the same time, we have fulfilled the promise made when we released the DT1, and the components of the DT1 can be seamlessly connected with the DT2. In other words, if you don't want to upgrade your DT1 glasses, then you can only buy the DT2 host components for 4999 yuan, and then you will get most of the performance of this upgrade, as well as the 'unlimited docking' function!"
OMGοΌ
The venue suddenly exploded!
All the CEOs of the mobile phone industry are pale.
If DT1 just announced the arrival of the era of smart glasses, then the ultra-low-priced DT2 has broken the psychological bottom line of users.
DT2's 25,000 is too far from the previous DT1's 90,000.
90,000 is almost equivalent to a domestic A-class car.
25,000 is only equivalent to a high-end notebook.
Many high-performance notebooks that can play 3A masterpieces are almost 20,000, why not add a few thousand more to buy a DT2 with almost the same performance and wear it out?
