Hello, friends of CTOnews.com, I'm Yu Tsai.

Since Apple launched the iPhone 14 series on Sept. 8, it has been at the center of discussion in the machine circle.

In particular, the Pro version of the "Smart Island" design, because it is too unique, has become the most interesting topic.

I still remember watching the press conference, the appearance of "Smart Island" lit up Yu Zi's eyes, and I never thought that Apple could do the whole job on the "pill".

Coupled with the dexterity of Apple's demonstration of its application scenarios, the lively look is amazing: amazing!

So Yu Zi concluded at that time that this thing would set off a bloody storm.

Sure enough, netizens launched a heated debate about the design of Smart Island.

Some people believe that Smart Island is an incomparable great innovation, a creation that changes human history and subverts the process of the world.

Other people feel that Smart Island has not only not solved the practical problem of the special-shaped screen, but has become bigger, uglier and more conspicuous.

There is no doubt that this is essentially a fight between Apple users and Android users.

There is nothing wrong with the views of both sides. Once people have a clear position, they will inevitably have something to belong to; not to mention, aesthetics is a matter of opinion.

But after the official launch of iPhone 14, there was a very interesting phenomenon--

Some fruit fans who were full of expectations for Smart Island complained a lot after they got the real machine to use.

Yu Zi went to explore the reasons for their complaints and found that there were three aspects:

First, to cheat.

Judging from the official photos, Smart Island is slightly inconsistent, but its area is well controlled and does not look so uncomfortable.

However, the real machine is not the case, the smart island area is black and large, especially conspicuous against the white interface.

Second, chromatic aberration.

Judging from the photos, the digging hole of the front module is integrated with the black UI of the smart island, and the degree of matching is extremely high.

But the real machine in the strong light environment, there will be obvious color difference, UI can not cover up the module.

Third, adaptation.

Despite the fact that Smart Island shows near-perfect usefulness in the video, the actual situation is quite the opposite.

As the current mainstream App has not adapted, it looks full of odor.

These three aspects of the problem, so that users have a sense of disappointment, have said that it is not the island, but the deception of Apple.

In this way, the saying of "smart island turning over" followed.

In addition, in addition to being accused of turning over, Smart Island is caught in another whirlpool-plagiarism.

Many netizens claim that the design of smart island has long been realized by Android manufacturers: the honorable smart phone capsule, the vivo atomic capsule notification bar, and the ring power of Meizu.

Yu Zai disagrees with the idea of plagiarism.

Apple Smart Island supports more features than Android manufacturers'UI variants, which will change shape and animation according to the function, which is a system-level interaction.

It is true that the feeling may be slightly similar, but it is fundamentally different.

Generally speaking, whether you like it or not, there is no denying that Smart Island Fire is out of the circle.

Since it appeared, not only Apple users, but also many Android users are eager to have it.

For them, changing the machine is not very realistic, so they ask the manufacturer to add the smart island function, but in return for the answer of "not doing it for the time being".

Although the authorities were reluctant to do it, the folk gods began to take action and developed the smart island App in just a few days.

Yu Tsai experienced it and felt that it was not as rich as the original apple, but it was also very smart, fresh and playable.

Next, I will briefly introduce some of them to you. If you want to experience them, you might as well give it a try.

Smart bird

Smart Bird is the first Android App to reproduce Smart Island. Before using it for the first time, it is recommended to turn on all permissions to ensure the best results.

From the point of view of the demonstration, there will be an animation effect when charging and connecting headphones are connected.

After the rain test, it is found that this is true, for example, when the headphones are connected, the animation automatically pops up at the top of the screen.

Although the support for the scene is limited, but the animation is still silky, more or less iPhone flavor.

It should be noted, however, that because the App imitates iPhone's mode of unfolding animation from the middle, the effect of the phone with holes on the side is not good.

Even if the position can be adjusted, it is difficult to match 100%. Mobile phones with double holes on the left, such as Yu Tsai, are not fully displayed.

Vientiane Mobile Island

In addition to the Smart Bird, there is also an App called Vientiane Mobile Island, which can also animate the Mobile Island.

Compared with the former, it also adds mute prompts, message prompts and music playing scenes on the basis of connecting charging and connecting headphones.

Although it fully adapts to the hole digging screen, the pill screen, the water drop screen and the full screen, it also has to adjust the position by itself.

Otherwise, the animation effect will be hollowed out.

Universal widget

In addition to the separate App, some universal widgets App have also added smart island widgets.

Take "TopWidgets" as an example, it provides a "smart dock" widget.

After opening the smart dock, you can add three effects: connection charger prompt, analog voice call prompt and wireless headset connection prompt.

These three third-party App are generally used, and Yu Zai feels that Vientiane Mobile Island is relatively outstanding.

Of course, although they have an effect similar to that of Smart Island, it is just animation.

But given that it's just App, it's not easy to do this, at least giving Android users a chance to try something new.

Recently, in the theme of Xiaomi MIUI, there is also the theme of imitating Smart Island.

From the demonstration effect, compared with the third-party App, the function is richer, but only limited to the lock screen interface, unlocking will be invalid.

Other users are out of luck, and Xiaomi users can play with it.

In addition, there are Android manufacturers who want to try Smart Island, such as realme:

Some netizens firmly oppose the "smart island" on Android phones and think it is too LOW:

Finally, Yu Zai wants to talk about whether Android manufacturers will follow up on Smart Island.

After the advent of Smart Island, many users expect Android to launch phones designed with Smart Island.

For this expectation, Yu Zai really feels that it is not necessary.

First of all, the use of smart island design will be labeled as "plagiarism".

Second, Smart Island can't be said to have much splendor, and it can't be brainless just because it's made by Apple.

Finally, the design of Smart Island runs counter to the efforts of the environment in recent years.

In order to give users a better visual experience, Android manufacturers are looking for ways to reduce the area of front punches.

On the other hand, Smart Island, in order to "cover up ugliness", as a result occupied more display area, pure is for that little vinegar, only to make dumplings.

As Luo Yonghao commented: first smear shit on the face, and then adjust the color of the shit to the same as the foundation.

So again, Smart Island is really original, but there is really no need to follow up.

Instead of blindly imitating Apple, it is better to stick to your own path and explore the true comprehensive screen.

After all, it is easy to follow the path that others have taken, but you can only get what others have left.

In the final analysis, Zaoxiu Island is just an unpleasant pill.
