Apple HomePod
苹果音箱
Siri gets a place of its own with the HomePod, Apple’s new smart speaker. The device comes with seven tweeters and runs on an Apple A8 chip. It gives you a direct line to Siri. Ask it to play Beats 1 Radio, deliver the weather forecast, set a timer, or control your HomeKit devices.

The Most Powerful Mac Ever Made
迄今为止性能最强的苹果电脑
The all-new iMac Pro packs monster power into the same sleek design that makes Apple products so covetable. It comes with processors up to 22 teraflops, memory up to 128 gigs, and as much as 4 terabytes of storage. Apple also introduced upgrades to the entire line of MacBooks and iMacs, all of which are now getting a boost with Intel’s super efficient Kaby Lake processors.
全新的苹果电脑(iMac Pro)拥有同样时尚的设计,并载入了强大的功能,使这款产品令人垂涎。它搭载了每秒可进行22万亿次浮点运算的处理器,内存达128GB,硬盘容量达4TB。苹果公司还为MacBook和iMac系列的所有产品进行了升级,如今这两个系列的所有电脑都搭载了英特尔超高效处理器(Kaby Lake)使性能得到了提升。
High Sierra macOS
“High Sierra”操作系统
The latest macOS, dubbed High Sierra, brings updates to everything on your computer: Safari now runs 80 percent faster, and comes with built-in autoplay blocking and intelligent tracking prevention to hide cross-site scripting data. New features in Mail spotlight your most important messages and use less storage space on your phone, and improved machine learning capabilities in Photos to automatically sort your library by event or detect who’s in your pictures.
被称为“High Sierra”的最新款苹果电脑操作系统(macOS)更新了你电脑上的所有配置:如今浏览器(Safari)的运行速度提升了80%,还安装了内置的自动运行拦截工具和智能追踪预防工具来隐藏跨站点的脚本数据。电子邮件服务的新功能是突出显示你的重要信息,并占用更少的手机存储空间。新的macOS还提高了照片工具的机器学习能力,使其可以自动根据事件来分类照片,并检测你的照片上有谁。
Amazon Comes to Apple TV
亚马逊加入苹果TV(苹果高清电视机顶盒产品)
Apple TV already has 50 partners integrated into the app to let you stream whatever entertainment you want—whether it’s Master of None on Netflix, the Handmaid’s Tale on Hulu, or Silicon Valley on HBO Go. Now, that list also includes Amazon, which will build its Prime Video library into Apple TVs later this year.
苹果TV已经把50个合作伙伴的产品整合到其应用软件上,使你可以播放你想观看的任何娱乐节目,不论是奈飞公司(Netflix)的《无为大师》、Hulu网站(一家美国视频网站)的《侍女的故事》,还是HBO电视网的《硅谷》。如今,合作伙伴的名单又增加了亚马逊。今年晚些时候,亚马逊会把它的视频库整合到苹果TV上。
Apple Watch Brings AI to Your Wrist
苹果手表——把人工智能戴上手腕
A new watchface powered by Siri automatically displays the information that’s most relevant to you, based on the apps you use most. Siri will automatically pull up the next item on your calendar, your reminders. WatchOS 4 also brings new fitness features, like motivational messages to help you hit your exercise goals and integrations with gym equipment to better track your workouts. You can even sync playlists to your Apple Watch and listen to them through your AirPods while exercising without your phone nearby.
由苹果语音助理(Siri)驱动的新表盘可以根据你使用的最多的应用软件来自动显示与你最相关的信息。Siri会自动显示你的日程和备忘录上的下一个事项。苹果手表的最新操作系统(WatchOS 4)还有新的健身功能,例如,发送帮助你实现运动目标的激励性信息,整合健身设备上的数据来更好地追踪你的健身情况。你甚至可以把自己的音乐播放列表同步到苹果手表上。在你做运动的时候,即使手机不在身边,你也可以通过无线耳机(AirPods)来听音乐。
iOS 11
iOS 11操作系统
Apple stuffed all kinds of new capabilities into its latest update for iOS: Look forward to new features on Maps, like a “do not disturb while driving” integration. Messages comes integrated with more apps, including Apple Pay, which lets you pay your friends directly through a text. There’s also a totally redesigned App Store, and a refresh on the control center, which packs all of your notifications into a single page. All iOS devices will get the boost later this year.
苹果公司为iOS最新版的操作系统加载了各种新功能:你可以期待一下地图的新功能,比如它载入了“驾驶勿扰”模式。信息服务也整合了更多的应用软件,包括苹果支付,使你可以直接通过短信来向朋友转账。新的iOS操作系统还安装了一个完全重新设计的应用商店,更新了控制中心,使你的所有通知呈现在一个页面上。今年晚些时候,所有的iOS设备都将得到改进。
AR on Your iPhone
苹果手机上的增强现实技术(AR)
Using computer vision, your iPhone can now detect surfaces and add AR objects on top of them—like putting an AR coffee cup on top of an IRL table. Now hundreds of millions of iPhones and iPads will have AR capabilities, making Apple the largest AR platform in the world.
你的苹果手机如今可以使用计算机视觉技术来探测物体表面,并把AR物体置于其上方,例如把一个AR咖啡杯放在一张真正的桌子上。现在数亿台苹果手机和平板电脑将拥有AR功能,使苹果公司成为世界上最大的AR平台。
Siri Intelligence
智能语音助理
Siri has a new, more humanlike voice with way more functionality. Ask the virtual assistant to translate for you (“Hey Siri, how do I say ‘Where’s the bathroom’ in Chinese?”) in five new languages. There are new capabilities like task management, banking, and bringing up VR codes. Apple’s also ramped up Siri’s intelligence: Now, the assistant can learn how you use your device to better anticipate your needs. If Siri notices you’ve been spending a lot of time searching for “hotels in Iceland,” it might bring up some Iceland-related articles in Apple News.
苹果语音助理(Siri)拥有了更像人类的全新嗓音,而且还加载了更多功能。你可以让这位虚拟助理帮你翻译五种新的语言(例如,“嘿,Siri,‘浴室在哪儿’这句话用汉语怎么说?”)。Siri还有任务管理、银行业务以及提供VR(虚拟现实)代码等新功能。苹果公司还提升了Siri的智能:现在,这位助理可以通过了解你使用设备的方式来更好地预计你的需求。如果Siri注意到你花了许多时间搜索“冰岛的酒店”,它可能就会在苹果新闻中心为你提供一些与冰岛有关的文章。
iPad Pro 10.5-inch
10.5英寸的苹果平板电脑(iPad Pro)
An all new iPad Pro takes the all-screen computer concept to the next level with a model that’s truly all screen. The new 10.5-inch iPad is almost exactly the same size as the 9.7″model, but without bezels. There’s enough room on that screen to fit a full-size on-screen keyboard, and Apple says it’s the fastest model yet, with a six-core A10X Fusion. It also brings HDR video to an iPad for the first time.
苹果的新款iPad Pro系列平板电脑用真正的全面屏机型把全面屏电脑概念推向了一个新的高度。新款的10.5英寸的平板电脑与9.7英寸的机型的尺寸几乎一样,但新款的平板电脑没有嵌玻璃凹槽。新款的显示屏上有足够的空间来容纳原尺寸的屏幕键盘,而且苹果公司表示新款的平板电脑加载了六核的A10X Fusion芯片,是迄今为止运行最快的机型。苹果公司还首次为平板电脑引入了HDR(高动态范围)视频。
