Chapter 087: Born for Fluency
When one of the functions of the iPhone was demonstrated on the stage by Wen Ming, I don't know how many people had the idea of buying an iPhone.
However, there are also many people who wrote a review that they resolutely did not buy after watching the press conference.
"Can't replace the battery? And said you want me to play for a day? β
"There's only one key, what if I type? It just looks like the screen is very hard. β
"What should I do if the screen is broken?"
β¦β¦
It is impossible for any product to satisfy all consumers, even Microsoft, which dominates the computer system market, has many critics for its Windows series, and many 'professionals' crack the loopholes every year.
As a non-monopoly hardware product, the iPhone launched by Apple is unlikely to be admired by all consumers.
However, the advantages of the iPhone have also been recognized by the vast majority of consumers.
"This is the end of the introduction of the design and function of the appearance."
At the last stage of the press conference, Wen Ming stood on the stage and said: "I have always believed that all the hardware performance of the products purchased by users should serve users, and it can also be said that users can enjoy the performance of those hardware when users need them." β
"For example, I bought a smartphone, and its running memory is 512M, and the running memory is the space required by the smartphone to run the software, which is different from the storage memory."
Wen Ming originally wanted to take out an Android phone on the stage and then give a live demonstration, but this proposal was also rejected by Peter and others. Because the Android phone system was developed by Google, and now because Nokia has made the Symbian intelligent system its own exclusive system, many mobile phone manufacturers have chosen to use the free Android system.
If Wen Ming openly slaps his face like this, it will inevitably offend all stakeholders of the Android system.
"I believe that many friends have felt the same way as me, when a software indicates that it needs only 100M running memory, a mobile phone with 512M running memory has no way to run the software smoothly, and even there will be stuck backs."
Wen Ming said: "Of course, the 512M memory can't be fake, except for the running memory required by the system itself, it should be able to perfectly run the software that requires 100M running space, but why, it can't do it?" β
Peter backstage suddenly became nervous, Wen Ming was about to say the question, they had also discussed whether to say it directly at the press conference, but at Wen Ming's insistence, Peter's persuasion still failed.
"Don't offend all the software developers."
While Peter was worried, the IT practitioners on the scene, especially the software developers among them, almost all scolded in their hearts, because they knew what Wen Ming wanted to say, and they had been informed of this problem when they accepted Apple's localized application development kit before.
They didn't care originally, but now, if Wen Ming wanted to announce it on such an occasion, it was a little inappropriate, which made them very unhappy.
Wen Ming didn't pay attention to anyone, he could follow the advice and not say that other mobile phones were not as good as Apple, and he could directly take out his Android phone to demonstrate it live. However, the most satisfying feature of the iPhone, he could not help but say at this press conference.
"Because, most of the software on the market, in order to increase its own startup time, or for some other purpose, always keep some processes running in the background. And these processes are the real reason why your smartphone becomes slow and stuttering. β
In addition, in order to give users a better experience, the software itself will record some of the user's usage habits, and these records will also occupy the hardware performance of the mobile phone. There are also software version updates, and they don't even think about how to eliminate the impact of the old version on the hardware, and they don't clean up those residual data ......"
Wen Ming felt a bit of a mocking gaze, it was from the software developers, in fact, as long as the user who knew a little bit about this matter could easily analyze it. Especially for Android users, before Android 6.0, users had to click on the function of cleaning up the running memory almost every time they turned on the mobile phone to use it.
And now it's 2009, and although the development of Android is a little faster than in the previous life, it is still far from version 6.0. But even if it is Android 6.0 or above, there is no way to solve the unethical software ecosystem, all software developers, is to ensure their own software use experience as much as possible, wantonly obtain some permissions that they do not need at all, and arbitrarily change the startup items of the user's device. wantonly occupy the user's hardware performance......
It's not that Android is not powerful, but that Android is open source, which is destined to bear the blame for those software developers.
For those software developers, as long as you use hardware, you have to use my software, so what if you know?
Wen Ming couldn't do anything before, but in this life, he can do this.
"Therefore, in the iOS system developed by Apple, the main demand is to allow users to enjoy as much hardware performance as possible they have purchased."
The iPhone in Wen Ming's hand,When the functions were demonstrated just now,It has been connected to the background projection,At this time,Wen Ming opened a software in the iPhone,Apple produced and sold to Facebook's insγ
"You can pay attention to this interface, which is a background process display interface that we made specifically for today's demonstration."
On the projection screen, the background process of the first-generation iphone is fully displayed, 512M running memory, and dual-core A4 processor, in addition to the system occupation, only ins occupies a part.
Wen Ming opened the Facebook App again, because he is already a shareholder of Facebook, so it is very easy for the Facebook development department to convert Facebook's software to the running platform and then release it on iOS.
"Now, you can see how much memory these two software occupy on your iPhone, as well as the performance of the processor."
Wen Ming pressed the home button, and on the display interface of the iPhone, the interface of two software appeared, and clicking one at random can be a good switch between the two software.
"The reason for the smoothness is not how good our iPhone is, but because the hardware parameters required by these two apps can be fully met by our iPhone. If you open a new software, the required hardware parameters are higher, then, the ios system will automatically close an app that was opened before in the background, of course, we can also manually end the app process in the background. β
Wen Ming swiped lightly on the 3.5-inch screen, and the interface of ins disappeared on the screen.
"Please note that now, the running memory, processor performance, etc. occupied by ins in the background have completely disappeared."
The interface, which specifically displays the background processes and hardware parameters of the iPhone, proves what Wen Ming said with very obvious numbers.
"We want to shut down the software completely, instead of secretly continuing to use our hardware performance in the background, so that we can't run other software smoothly."
After Wen Ming demonstrated this function, he said confidently: "I promise once again that all software released on the iOS platform must be based on this principle, otherwise, I will reject them for you." β
The applause and whistles rang out again, and Wen Ming said it so bluntly that even the audience who didn't know much about it could understand that this was a feature that would help them use their smartphones.
But for those software developers, this feature is not very good, and some software developers are already thinking, should they use the threat of refusing to release on the iOS platform to get Apple to change this decision?
Wen Ming doesn't know what those software developers think, and even if he does, he won't care, because when the iPhone is recognized by users, no software developer can refuse the iOS platform, because the iOS platform has a very important function for software development. a, very advantageous features.
Wen Ming's eyes looked at the camera next to him, he didn't know how many viewers were watching him on the Internet now, but he believed that it should be beyond the imagination of many people.
"So, the iPhone is made for smoothness!"
