亲身体验苹果全新智能手表和iPhone 6

    周二，苹果发布了狂热果粉们期盼已久的新iPhone大屏手机和智能手表。《财富》有30分钟的时间体验这两款产品。在我们有限的测试中，我们发现，这两款令人印象深刻的产品保持了苹果一直以来在创新和设计方面的声誉，但是它们仍然存在一些问题。

    苹果智能手表

    苹果的全新智能手表发布上市时，三星、索尼和摩托罗拉等公司的智能手表正处于短暂的繁荣时期。明年年初苹果智能手表上市时，这款售价为349美元的设备（至少低端设计的价格为349美元）将有两种不同的表盘尺寸（1.5英寸和1.65英寸），腕带将由皮革、合成材料和金属制成，而表盘使用的材料是防刮玻璃。表盘背面的传感器可以检测用户的脉搏，以跟踪燃烧的卡路里和走路或跑步的距离等指标。

    仔细检查后，我们发现，苹果智能手表是市场上造型最优美的智能手表之一，仅摩托罗拉的Moto 360可以与其外形相匹敌。大多数智能手表看起来要么笨重，要么缺乏创意——只能说比20世纪80年代造型庸俗的计算器手表好看一些。但是，苹果在将其智能手表化作造型优美的传统手表方面做得十分出色。苹果智能手表足够小，而且轻薄——即使是对像我这样手腕很细的人也是如此——而且，样品的优质腕带还使用了与斯沃琪（Swatch）或更高档手表相同的材料。

    我试用的手表尺寸为38毫米——苹果公司将出售两种尺寸的手表，尺寸分别为38毫米和42毫米。皮质表带使用与苹果iPad皮套相同的、薄而平的材料制成。对于iPad外套而言，这种材料确实很不错，而且可以将体积缩至最小。但是这种薄而平的材料用于表带，在我看来则显得有些廉价。当然，这是一个见仁见智的问题，而且还有其他种类的表带可供用户选择。

    On Tuesday, Apple unveiled a new bigger iPhone and the smartwatch aficionados have been waiting for. Fortune had 30 minutes to try them both out. What we found in our limited test were two impressive devices in keeping with Apple’s reputation for innovation and design. But some questions still remain.

    Apple Watch

    Apple’s new smartwatch arrives amid a watch boomlet from companies like Samsung, Sony, and Motorola. When Apple Watch arrives early next year, the $349 device (at least for the low-end design) will come in two different watch face sizes with wrist straps made of leather, synthetic materials and metal. Its 1.5- and 1.65-inch displays use scratch-resistant glass. Sensors on the back of the watch face detect a user’s pulse to track things like calories burned and distance walked or run.

    Up close, the Apple Watch is among the sleekest smart watches on the market, matched only in looks by Motorola’s Moto 360. Most smart watches look clunky or uninspired — just a few rungs above those kitschy calculator watches made popular in the 1980s. But Apple’s does a good job masquerading as a slick, traditional timepiece. It’s just small and thin enough — even for folks with smaller wrists like myself — and the premium wrist straps provided in the demos feature the kind of materials found in Swatch or higher-end time pieces.

    The watch I spent time with was a size 38 — Apple will sell two sizes, 38 millimeters and 42 millimeters — with the leather strap made of the same thin, flat material used in Apple’s leather iPad cases. For an iPad case, it’s nice, actually, and keeps bulk to a minimum. But when used for a watch strap, that same thin, flat material felt sort of cheap to me. That’s a matter of opinion, of course, and users will have watch strap options, regardless.
