iPhone 18 Pro系列大漲價,果粉直呼吃不消,通路建議別等明年標準版

Quick Look

蘋果iPhone 18 Pro系列正式發布,價格大幅上調,起售價達44,900元,頂規2TB版衝上93,900元,讓果粉直呼吃不消。通路傑昇指出,記憶體等零組件成本上漲,明年標準版iPhone 18亦難維持「甜價」,建議有換機需求者考慮iPhone 17或趕在庫存見底前購買iPhone 17 Pro系列,因該系列已從蘋果官網下架,通路現貨將於雙12前後斷貨。

AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

蘋果每年發布新一代iPhone,通常在九月舉行發布會。iPhone 18 Pro系列為今年旗艦機型,價格調整受零組件成本影響。

蘋果新一代iPhone 18 Pro系列正式亮相,但價格也跟著明顯上漲,讓不少原本準備換機的果粉開始猶豫,既然Pro系列這麼貴,是不是乾脆再撐一年,等明年的標準版iPhone 18?不過,連鎖通路傑昇通信認為,想靠「等下一代」省錢,明年恐怕未必會如願。

今年iPhone 18 Pro系列漲價幅度相當有感,依容量不同,各機型調漲約5,000元至 21,000元,iPhone 18 Pro起售價來到44,900元,iPhone 18 Pro Max則從 49,900元起跳,頂規2TB版本更衝上93,900元,不少果粉直呼吃不消。

請繼續往下閱讀...

等明年iPhone 18?通路:價格未必甜

傑昇表示,近期記憶體等零組件成本持續上漲,再加上今年iPhone 18 Pro系列與多款舊機售價都同步調高,明年的標準版iPhone 18恐怕也很難維持過去大家期待的「甜甜價」,加上距離上市還有一段時間,後續影響售價的變數還太多。

因此,對於近期本來就有換機需求的消費者來說,建議不必一味苦等下一代,以現階段產品線來看,標準版iPhone 17仍是相對務實的入手機型。

至於有人想改買前代iPhone 17 Pro系列,現在也得把握時間。傑昇表示,iPhone 17 Pro系列已隨新機發表從蘋果官網下架,通路端現貨也早已不多,尤其512GB以上版本缺貨情況更明顯,已經未必能買到自己想要的容量或顏色,依目前庫存狀況推估,iPhone 17 Pro系列可能在雙12前後陸續全面斷貨。

整體來看,今年如果覺得iPhone 18 Pro系列售價太高,又剛好有換機需求,與其把希望全部押在明年的標準版iPhone 18,現階段反而可以先評估iPhone 17,或趁庫存還沒完全見底前入手iPhone 17 Pro系列。

Apple launches its first foldable phone, iPhone Duo, and Samsung says, "We'll wait until you finish reheating our leftovers."

Apple will launch its first foldable screen phone, iPhone Duo, at the 2026 autumn conference, priced at US$1,999. Old rival Samsung posted eight posts in a row on the X platform criticizing Apple for its lack of innovation, and said, "We'll wait until you finish reheating our leftovers." Although the two sides are constantly arguing with each other on social media, the Korea Herald pointed out that the key folding screen of the iPhone Duo is still supplied by Samsung Display, showing a business phenomenon of "being cruel on the table but still counting money off the table." The incident sparked heated discussions in communities in many countries, and even sparked an online battle over the conflicting name between the model name "Duo" and the language learning software Duolingo.

Apple's first foldable phone iPhone Duo unveiled, with almost invisible creases and proven durability

Apple's first foldable phone, iPhone Duo, has been officially unveiled. When viewed from the front, the crease is almost invisible. It requires a specific angle to detect it and is not noticeable to the touch. Apple uses a special polymer anti-scratch coating, nano-texture layer and multi-layer adhesive to reduce pressure and visual interference, and uses a grade 5 titanium frame and IP68 waterproof and dustproof design to increase durability. Taiwan's "Mr. Crazy" actually tested it and pointed out that although the creases are still visible under the black screen, the degree of dent is much better than that of earlier models.

Global carrier board output value will reach US$19.51 billion in 2026, an annual increase of 32.3%, and high-end carrier boards have become a key link in AI computing

As the demand for generative AI, high-performance computing and data centers heats up, the global semiconductor substrate industry has entered a new stage of high-end product upgrades and material supply bottlenecks. The global substrate output value will reach US$14.75 billion in 2025, an annual increase of 18.5%; it is estimated to reach US$19.51 billion in 2026, an annual increase of 32.3%. Taiwan’s ABF carrier board market share reaches 41.3%, ranking first in the world, demonstrating its key position in the AI ​​chip packaging and high-performance computing supply chain. However, the supply of Low CTE fiberglass cloth required for high-end carrier boards continues to be tight. It takes time for new production capacity to be put into production and ramped up. It is difficult to significantly increase supply capacity in the short term. In terms of advanced packaging technology, glass core is regarded as an important development direction for the next generation of high-end carrier boards, but challenges such as material brittleness, processing and reliability verification still need to be overcome.
