El I-iPhone yokuqala egoqekayo ye-Apple Sekuyiminyaka kukhulunywa ngamahemuhemu, futhi ngokusho kokuvuza kwakamuva, ukwethulwa kwayo kuseduze kakhulu kunanini ngaphambili. Nakuba inkampani ingakaqinisekisi lutho ngokusemthethweni, imithombo eminingi iyavuma ukuthi le divayisi, eyaziwa ngokungemthetho ngokuthi i-iPhone Ultra, izokwethulwa ngoSepthemba 2026 kanye ne-iPhone 18 Pro kanye ne-18 Pro Max. Kodwa-ke, eminye imibiko iphakamisa ukuthi kungaba nokubambezeleka kokukhiqiza, okuzobuyisela ukutholakala kwayo emuva ekupheleni konyaka, njengoba kwenzeka nge-iPhone X ngo-2017.
Ifomethi ekhethiwe izoba ngeyokuthi ukugoqa uhlobo lwencwadiKufana ne-Samsung Galaxy Z Fold, kodwa ngomklamo omncane kakhulu. Ngokusho kokuvuza, isikrini sangaphandle singaba amasentimitha angu-5,49, kanti isikrini sangaphakathi, lapho idivayisi ivuliwe, singafinyelela amasentimitha angu-7,8, kanye nesilinganiso sokulingana esiseduze no-4:3. Kubikwa ukuthi i-Apple isebenze kakhulu ukunciphisa ukugoba kwesikrini okwesabekayo, isebenzisa i-hinge yensimbi ewuketshezi kanye nephaneli ye-LTPO OLED enesilinganiso sokuvuselela esingu-120Hz kuzo zombili izinhlangothi.
Igama kanye nomklamo we-iPhone egoqekayo
Igama lomkhiqizo lihlala liyimfihlakalo, kodwa iningi labavuzayo liyabheja I-iPhone UltraLesi yisiqubulo i-Apple esigcinele imikhiqizo yayo esezingeni eliphezulu kakhulu. Igama elithi "Fold" likhishiwe ukuze lihlukanise nabancintisana nabo. Ngokuphathelene nezinto zokwakha, kulindeleke inhlanganisela ye-titanium ne-aluminium, ene-chassis encane kakhulu—cishe ubukhulu obungu-4,5 mm uma ivuliwe—kanye nokwakheka okuqinile. Imibala yokuqala izoba mnyama, mhlophe, futhi mhlawumbe isiliva, kushiywe eceleni imibala ekhangayo kakhulu.
I-hinge ingenye yamaphuzu abalulekile. Ngokusho kwemithombo eminingana, i-Apple isungule uhlelo lwe- ihinji yensimbi ewuketshezi Lokhu, kanye nengilazi encane kakhulu (i-UTG) kanye nepuleti lensimbi eliqinile, kungavumela ukuthi ukugoba kuncishiswe cishe ngokuphelele. Nakuba kungekho mkhiqizi okwazile ukukuqeda ngokuphelele, inkampani yeCupertino ingathanda ukubiza izindleko ezengeziwe ukuze ifeze lokhu futhi izihlukanise namafoni asongekayo amanje.
Ukusebenza, ibhethri namakhamera
Ngaphakathi, i-iPhone Ultra izohlala I-chip ye-A20 ProIkhiqizwe kusetshenziswa inqubo yama-nanometer amabili yi-TSMC, i-chip ye-A19 kulindeleke ukuthi inikeze ukuthuthukiswa kokusebenza okungu-10-15% kune-A2, kanye nokusebenza kahle kwamandla okungaphezu kuka-30%. Izohlanganiswa ne-RAM engu-12GB kanye nezinketho zokugcina ezingu-256GB, 512GB, kanye ne-1TB. Ngokusho kwamahemuhemu avame kakhulu, ibhethri lizoba nomthamo ophakathi kuka-5.400 no-5.800 mAh, lisakazwe kumaseli amabili ukuze livumelane nomklamo ogoqekayo. Lokhu kuzokwenza kube yibhethri elinomthamo ophezulu kakhulu ku-iPhone kuze kube manje.
Ngokuphathelene nezithombe, idivayisi izobe inezici amakhamera amabili angemuva angama-48-megapixelIzoba nelensi ebanzi kanye nelensi ebanzi kakhulu, kodwa ingenayo ilensi ye-telephoto. Ikhamera ebheke phambili, etholakala esikrinini sangaphandle, izoba ama-megapixel angu-18. Ukuze kuqinisekiswe, i-Apple ibizokhetha isifundi seminwe se-Touch ID esifakwe enkinobheni eseceleni, ngaphambi kwe-Face ID ngenxa yokulinganiselwa kwesikhala. Uhlelo lokusebenza luzoba yi-iOS 27, oluzofaka izici ezithile zokusebenzisa umklamo ogoqekayo, njengokwenza imisebenzi eminingi eminingi ngamafasitela angashintshwa usayizi.
Intengo nokutholakala eSpain
Intengo ngokungangabazeki yisici esidala ukungaqiniseki okukhulu. Ukuvuza kusikisela ukuthi I-iPhone Ultra izobiza ama-euro angaphezu kuka-2.000 Enguqulweni yayo eyisisekelo, kulinganiselwa ukuthi ibiza phakathi kuka-€2.000 no-€2.200. ESpain, lokhu kuzoyibeka ngaphezu kwe-Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, eqala ku-€2.109. Amamodeli anesitoreji esiningi angafinyelela ku-€2.900. Naphezu kwezindleko eziphakeme, kubikwa ukuthi i-Apple ihlele ukukhiqiza kokuqala kwamayunithi aphakathi kwezigidi eziyi-10 neziyi-11, okubonisa ukuzethemba okukhulu ekufuneni.
Ngokuphathelene nosuku lokukhishwa, konke kukhomba ukuthi izokwethulwa ngoSepthemba 2026, kodwa ingase ingatholakali kuze kube uNovemba noma uDisemba ngenxa yezinkinga zokukhiqiza nge-hinge kanye nesikrini. UFoxconn, umhlanganisiKubikwa ukuthi i-Apple yenza izinguquko ngomzuzu wokugcina, yize imithombo yemboni ithi ukubambezeleka ngeke kube kukhulu. Kunoma ikuphi, labo abanentshisekelo kuzodingeka balinde inkulumo eyinhloko ye-Apple ukuze bathole imininingwane yokugcina.
Sekukonke, i-iPhone egoqekayo ibukeka njengedivayisi ebaluleke kakhulu ye-Apple eminyakeni edlule, ihlanganisa ukwakheka okusha nokusebenza okuphezulu. Nakuba ukungabaza ngokutholakala kwayo kanye nentengo kungokoqobo, ukuvuza kukhomba umkhiqizo ongawuchaza kabusha isigaba esigoqekayo, uma nje i-Apple ikwazi ukunqoba izinselele zobuchwepheshe esabhekene nazo.
